The Representative arrived with members of his Campain Council to a ceremonial reception by the Umuokwe Community in Umuhu Ezechi Ward where he was formally received by Ezechiebulu the Eleventh of Umuhu Ezechi, HRM Eze Chigaemezu Onwuchekwa, who eulogized him for his excellent performance in the House of Representatives.
According to the Traditional leader;
“All Bende has felt the Impact of your leadership and representation. I have gone to many communities in Bende, and everywhere and I have seen the things you have done. There is nothing more to say other than the entire Umuhu Community will follow your moving train”
“Come rain, come shine, be rest assured that the votes of the Umuhu Community are for you on the 25th of February”
HRM. Eze Chigaemezu, who also doubles as a Presbyter of the Methodist Church also prayed for the Representative and his team, asking God to protect him and fortify him with strength as he continues to serve the people of Bende.
Speaking at the rally, The President General, Umuokwe Village, Mr. Chikwendu Onwuchekwa appreciated the Honourable Member for demonstrating what quality representation means describing him as a man who walks his talk and never disappoints.
