Frank Nweke Jr, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has charged citizens of Enugu State, both home and in the diaspora, to rise up and take back the state from the ruling People’s Democratic Party.
Nweke, who has been on an intensive pre-campaign consultations, made this call during a consultative visit with the five autonomous communities in Ishi-Ozalla, Nkanu West Council Area of Enugu State on Wednesday, September 28.

He explained that the theme of his campaign, “Arise, Let’s Rebuild Enugu,” was carefully selected as a call for everyone to play a part in taking back Enugu from the claws of the Peoples Democratic Party who have delivered nothing but bad governance in the past seven years.
According to him, the 2023 election is a fight for the collective progress of ndị Enugu and that he stands prepared in every kind of way to assist the people in bringing down a dysfunctional PDP structure that has held the state down.
Affirming their desire to change the system of governance in the state come 2023, Chief Chidozie Onovo, President-General of Okorouba Progressive Union, Ozalla, said that this would be the first real election in Enugu State as there had been no worthy opposition to PDP’s misrule until Frank Nweke Jr emerged as the candidate of APGA.
He assured the APGA governorship-hopeful of their support for him and their commitment to work for the establishment of good governance in the state.
Nweke, whose message of rebuilding Enugu is beginning to gain wide acceptance, also commissioned the new APGA Ward office in Ozalla, celebrating the local team for their commitment in seeing that APGA emerges victorious come March 2023.
