The APC Unity Forum Nigeria (AUFN), a support structure for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has intensified its grassroots mobilisation in Imo State, directing its coordinators to extend the forum’s political structures to all 305 wards and polling units ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The directive was given on Thursday during a strategic stakeholders’ meeting of the Imo State Chapter, held at the APC State Secretariat, Okigwe Road, Owerri, with State, Zonal and Local Government Area coordinators in attendance.
Presiding over the meeting, the State Coordinator, Hon. Oludo Rosemoon Nzeribe, commended members for their commitment, support and solidarity, which she said contributed significantly to the successful registration of the forum and its recognition at the APC National Secretariat.
She described the Imo Chapter as one of the leading AUFN state platforms recognised by the party’s National Secretariat and Presidential Campaign Council (PCC).
Nzeribe urged the coordinators to take the mobilisation drive to their respective wards and LGAs, establish polling unit executives and strengthen the forum’s presence at the grassroots.
“We’re among the best state AUFN platforms that are registered and recognised at our party’s National Secretariat and Presidential Campaign Council,” she said.
She added: “I therefore encourage you to go to your various wards in your LGAs to sell our national platform. Form your polling units’ executives, since elections are won at polling units. We’re to work assiduously with our party to deliver all our candidates and then beat our chests as a formidable support structure.”
Emphasising the importance of commitment, discipline and numerical strength in politics, the State Coordinator described politics as both a game of numbers and a spiritual undertaking.
“Once you’re in high spirit, that’s the right time to deliver your assigned mandate, and rewards will always follow our success,” she said.
She further encouraged members with the Igbo expression, “Enye nwanyi oru, ona aruzi ya amaa,” stressing the importance of recognising and rewarding women who demonstrate commitment and capacity.
The meeting also provided an opportunity for Nzeribe to celebrate her elder sister, Chinyere Chichi Jack, over her reported victory in the recent United States midterm elections as a City Council member.
Highlights of the strategic meeting included members’ accreditation, reports from LGA coordinators, and presentations on state and national activities, among other deliberations.
Among those in attendance were Rev. Chris Mgbeanulu, Comrade Agor Stanley, Apostle Ugochukwu Onyegbulu, Lady Alozie Chinyere P., Ndubueze Ndidi E., Elder Comrade Chinedu Ohanukachukwu, Deacon Nicholas Anyanwu, Wisdom Izuchukwu Diala, Prince Bobby Olekwara and other stakeholders.
The meeting ended with renewed calls for stronger grassroots organisation, wider membership mobilisation and effective coordination of the forum’s activities across Imo State.
