Student Group Endorses Governor Okezie Ikpeazu For Second Term



The National Association of Abia State Students (NAASS) has unanimously endorsed the second term agenda of incumbent governor of the state, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu.

In a release signed by the President of NAASS, Comrade Emmanuel Njoku, made available to The Nation, the group stated that their decision to endorse the second term ambition of the governor was because of the “giant developmental strides” in Aba and across the state since he (Ikpeazu) assumed leadership as the governor of the state.

According to the student body, they believe that giving Ikpeazu the opportunity to run for a second term in office would give him (Ikpeazu) the opportunity to complete the ongoing works across the state which when completed would meaningfully impact positively and at the same time alleviate the sufferings of the people living in Abia State.

NAASS while calling on all and sundry to cue behind the reelection of the Governor in 2019 stated that the interest of the governor in the promoting efforts of the Small and Scale Medium Enterprise (SME), especially the made-in Aba campaign which has put food on the tables of so many families and giving leather works manufactured in Aba and other parts of the state a global brand.

On what he intends to achieve in office as the President of the student group, assured of transparency, accountability and peoples oriented government, stating that his regime would ensure that there was cordial relationship between the students’ body and the state government. This is even as he called on all Abia Students across various institutions in the country to be good ambassadors of the state and shun acts that are capable of causing insecurity and restiveness including cultism, armed robbery among other unlawful act wherever they are and would find themselves in life.

Other members of the Njoku led Comrade Erem Prosper Chidinma (Vice President General Duties), Comrade Cadet ASP Nwaubani (Vice President Special Duties), Ukoha Kalu Chisom (Financial Secretary), Nwadinobi Precious Chidinma (Treasurer), Ndubuisi Raymond (Director of Welfare), Charles Bernard Ibe (P.R.O) and Azu Azubuike Emmanuel (Director of Transport and Sports).
