The Action Democratic Party (ADP) senatorial candidate for Okigwe Zone, Attorney Charles Onyirimba, has appointed Mrs. Favour Nwelue as Director-General of his Campaign Council ahead of the 2027 Imo North Senatorial election.
Nwelue becomes the second woman to occupy the position of Director-General of a major Imo North senatorial campaign, following Mrs. Love Ineh, who previously served as DG of the campaign organisation of former Imo North Senator, Frank Ibezim.
A grassroots politician known for her political networks and mobilisation capacity, Nwelue is expected to bring organisational strength, energy and grassroots reach to the Onyirimba campaign as preparations for the election gather momentum.
Her appointment also reflects the campaign’s emphasis on building a structure that extends beyond political circles and connects directly with communities and voters across the six local government areas of Okigwe Zone.
The 40-man Campaign Council comprises politicians, technocrats, the clergy and credible men and women from diverse professional and social backgrounds across the six LGAs, bringing together experience, competence and grassroots reach.
With Nwelue at the helm of the campaign machinery, the focus is expected to shift increasingly towards grassroots organisation, voter engagement and the consolidation of structures across the zone.
For the Onyirimba campaign, the objective is clear: to build a formidable movement around its message of competence, capacity and purposeful representation for Ndi Okigwe.
