The World Igbo Congress, WIC, has described those calling for the resignation of Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu as enemies of the Igbo people.
In a statement signed by the Secretary-General of the WIC, Agatha Anosike and the Media Director, Dr. Acho Orabuchi, the gloup congratulated Senator Ekweremadu and all the Governors of Enugu, Imo, Abia, Delta, Ebonyi, and Rivers States on their successful election and inauguration.
The group called on them to rise up for the implementation of their campaign promises in order to improve the quality of life of their people.
Continuing, the WIC said: “We congratulate Dr. Ike Ekweremadu for his selfless service to the country, as well as his unparalleled leadership in the Senate and ECOWAS. We are strongly behind him and will do everything to support him in office”.
Similarly, the Enugu USA, an umbrella body of Enugu State people residing in the United States of America, has hailed Senator Ekweremadu as a true son of the land.
It described his re-election as historic and well deserved.
The group in a statement signed by its National President, Dr. Sinachi Ugwuonye, described Senator Ekweremadu’s re-election as most deserving.
It said: “In this position, our own Super Hero, Dr. Ike Ekweremadu has been tested and found highly worthy. Though this was a hard-to-believe outcome of the National Assembly elections, considering the political setting of current Nigeria, we are not surprised, as we know that we have a rare phenomenon in the person of this honorable man, fondly and largely known as IKEOHA”.
