Full of happiness and gratitude, Nicholas Chukwujekwu Ukachukwu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, embarked on a ‘Thank You’ tour to express his gratitude to party members and the general public for their overwhelming support in the April 5, 2025, primaries.
Dressed in an all-white attire, adorned with a red fez cap bearing the APC insignia and the liberation logo of party leader Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Ukachukwu mounted the elevated rostrum at Omelora Square, Nkwo Ogidi, amidst thunderous applause recently.
Following an introduction by Senator Uche Lilian Ekwunife, Ukachukwu’s running mate, Iyom Ifekaolaedo, he burst into an opening song that resonated deeply with the audience. The song, “Onyekeruwa anam ekene gi ooo Onumu juln n’ekene Ebe imelu ndu folu mu Onumu July n’ekene,” sparked an enthusiastic response from the crowd, comprising representatives from over 500 polling units and 12 wards of Idemili North Local Government.
This display of appreciation is a testament to Ukachukwu’s commitment to his supporters and his determination to build on the momentum generated from his primary victory. As he prepares for the November 8, 2025, election, Ukachukwu’s message of gratitude and unity is expected to further galvanize his supporters and attract more adherents to the APC cause.
The event was a celebration of the party’s strength and Ukachukwu’s popularity, showcasing his ability to connect with the people and inspire their enthusiasm. With this successful Thank You tour, Ukachukwu is poised to build on the goodwill generated and work towards a resounding victory in the upcoming election.
