*Overview of Zeribe’s Advantage And Why He Is The Right Choice For The Ogbaru Seat*
Late Ochiudo Achina, Zeribe’s father was raised on the front lines of the movement for Independence as members of the Zikist Movement and NCNC. Ochudo was one of the architects of grassroot politics in the old Onitsha metropolitan area, former member of NCNC and won election as member of the council.
In the second republic he joined the Nigeria Peoples Party and later left to support Dr. Alex Ekwueme, the then Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. In the 3rd Republic the Ochudo Achina was an active member and stakeholder of the Social Democratic Party, SDP.
He was one of the conveners of PDP in Anambra State back in 1998. Later on in early 2000, he emerged as top financier of APGA and pioneer leader and financier of APGA in Ogbaru LGA.
As a matter of facts, Ezeanuna family has been a part of Onitsha Metropolitan Area for over 80 years as business owners, homeowners and community activists.
Zeribe was privileged to be groomed in political direction and he got addicted to it. Thus Zeribe is by all standards a man of massive background which cut across quality education, sound religious morality (manifested in fear of God and love for humanity) good socio-economic discipline and huge political exposure.
His late father bred him through the best lines of service of the time. For instance, as young boy Zeribe through his father’s strong engagements in politics was part of the popular Zik’s Movement. There is no gainsaying the fact that politics and leadership formed major parts of Zeribe up bringing. And the time to unleash the benefits is now. Oge Erugo
