BREAKING‼️Uche Nnaji Leads in Ongoing Enugu PDP Governorship Primary Across 260 Political Wards



_...Emerges Unopposed at Akpugo Ward III_

The governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Uche Geoffrey Nnaji, is reportedly in a commanding lead in the ongoing PDP governorship primary election in Enugu State, with early indications and widespread political speculation suggesting a sweeping performance across the 260 political wards in the state.

Although the general and official statewide result is yet to be formally released by the party’s electoral committee, emerging ward-level outcomes and delegate alignments indicate that Chief Nnaji is maintaining a significant advantage over other contenders as collation continues.

In his home ward, Akpugo Ward 3 in Nkanu West Local Government Area, the aspirant recorded a decisive and unopposed victory. The outcome of the primary election held at Ogbashi Village Square went in his favour, reflecting what party insiders described as a unanimous endorsement by delegates in the area and he went unopposed.

Across several wards where voting has been concluded or reports have filtered in, there are strong indications that he is maintaining a leading position, with political observers noting that he appears to be ahead in most of the 260 wards based on ongoing but unofficial collation and party intelligence.

Party officials have maintained that the process remains orderly and ongoing, urging caution until the final announcement is made by the appropriate electoral authorities. They further confirmed that the exercise has so far recorded high participation from delegates and stakeholders across the state.

Speaking on his performance so far, Chief Nnaji expressed appreciation to party leaders, delegates, and supporters for their confidence, describing the unfolding outcome as a reflection of collective trust rather than personal triumph. He reiterated his commitment to party unity, grassroots mobilisation, and a development-focused agenda aimed at strengthening governance and expanding opportunities for youths in Enugu State.

Political analysts say the reported dominance across wards, coupled with his unopposed victory in Akpugo Ward 3, signals a strong consolidation of support within the party structure as the primary progresses toward final collation.

The PDP is expected to announce the official results upon completion of the statewide collation exercise.

  By John Chukwugozie Ugwuiyi NSUKKA — A political endorsement rally in support of Peter Mbah on Saturday was met with protests in Nsukka, as groups of women and youths staged a counter-demonstration to express dissatisfaction with his administration. The endorsement rally, held at the Nsukka Township Stadium, was organised by stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress in Enugu North Senatorial Zone. The event also featured support for Bola Ahmed Tinubu, drawing party members and political figures from across the zone. However, shortly after the rally, hundreds of residents gathered in different parts of Nsukka in protest, rejecting the endorsement and insisting it did not reflect the position of the wider population in the area. The demonstrators, who identified themselves as concerned stakeholders rather than political opponents, said the governor had not done enough in Enugu North to justify a second-term bid. They carried placards and chanted solidarity songs while outlining...
