Ahead of 2023 general elections, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has published the name of Chief Ikechi Emenike as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for Abia State for the 2023 general election.
This publication has put to rest the lingering contention between Chief Emenike and Hon. Uche Ogah on who is the authentic APC guber candidate in Abia.
Prof Uche Ikonne, Dr Alex Oti, Prof Gregory Ibe of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP), and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) respectively also scaled through for the election.
