The network, led by its national chairman, Chief John Osuala, while on a visit to the front politician in Owerri, expressed the group's determination to ensure chief Iwuanyanwu's emergence as the next chairman of the party.


He emphasized that it is important that, he works with President Umaru, Yar'Adua whom he worked very hard to deliver as president to realize his seven-point agenda for the country.

"It's important he works with President Yar'Adua. If you have a humane president and a humane national chairman of our party the polity will be better for it, Chief Osuala said, adding as far as we are concerned we have only two candidates - Chief Iwuanyanwu and others".

He, therefore, advised the other candidates to step down for Chief Iwuanyanwu whose experience in politics has been growing since the National Council for Nigerian Citizens (NCNC) days.

Besides, he declared that the Igbo would not present anybody with problems so as to avoid being ridiculed.

Speaking also, another member of the group, Prince Taminagbo described Chief Iwuanyanwu as the best candidate, saying the people of the south-south and their south-east counterparts have decided to enthrone the best candidate for the office. Full Story
