The National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Barr. Sly Ezeokenwa, has expressed deep shock and sadness at the passing of the first Executive Governor of New Anambra State, Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife (Okwadike).
Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife, who was democratically elected governor of Anambra State from January 1992 to November 1993, during the Nigerian Third Republic, left an indelible mark during his tenure. His commitment and dedication to serving the people of Anambra State have been instrumental in shaping the state’s political landscape.
Ezeokenwa described the late governor as a visionary leader who relentlessly pursued the progress and development of Anambra State. He stated, “APGA joins the entire nation in mourning the loss of a distinguished leader who was a strong advocate against Igbo marginalization in Nigeria.”
Barr. Ezeokenwa, on behalf of APGA, offered condolences to the Government of Anambra State, family, friends, and associates of Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife and prayed for the repose of his soul.
