*Commends President Tinubu for making right choice
The APC grassroots political support structure of Senator Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, IKEMBA FRONT, has commended President Bola Tinubu for appointing the widow of Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu into the nation’s foreign service.
The group said the appointment of Her Excellency, Iyom Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu suggested that the APC had captured the soul of Ndigbo.
In a statement signed by the group’s National youth leader, Dr Charles Ebulue, the group applauded the appointment, describing it as very strategic.
It viewed the appointment as that taken to heart considering the place of the Ojukwu’s family in the subconscious mind of Ndigbo.
While eulogizing Her Excellency, Iyom Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu (Anyanwu Ututu) for her superlative qualities, IKEMBA FRONT dismissed as untrue, insinuations from certain quarters.
It affirmed that those that had obliterated the vestiges of Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu from their party were not part of the making of her nomination for Minister of Sate for Foreign Affairs as it was based purely on merit.
The group said as Iyom Bianca is a Diplomat, Lawyer, Politician, Mobilizer and a global personality that Mr President acknowledged her qualities in taking his decision.
IKEMBA FRONT said it is committed to see that Her Excellency, Iyom Bianca Odinakachukwu Olivia Odumegwu Ojukwu (Anyanwu Ututu) succeeds in her new assignment and has placed its grassroots reach at her disposal.
“IKEMBA FRONT is a body founded in the Second Republic by her late husband, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, which she has stood by since its resuscitation in the late 2023 against all persuasions from certain individuals and organizations to cast aspersions and to denounce the group.
“IKEMBA FRONT will continue to give Her Excellency, Iyom Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu unflinching support, “the group promised.
