IHEDIOHA CELEBRATES PETER OBI ON HIS BIRTHDAY, HAILS HIS COMMITMENT TO GOOD GOVERNANCE

Former Governor of Imo State and prominent chieftain of the opposition coalition, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha CON, has extended warm birthday wishes to the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, His Excellency Mr. Peter Obi, describing him as a symbol of integrity, dedication, and visionary leadership.

In a goodwill message shared via his official social media handle, Ihedioha addressed Obi as “my dear brother and friend,” and further referred to him by his title “Okwute Ndi Igbo,” which translates to “The Rock of the Igbo People.”

“Wishing my dear brother and friend, H.E Mr. Peter Obi (Okwute Ndi Igbo), a happy birthday. May God continue to bless you with good health, strength, and many more impactful years, as you remain committed to good governance, and the welfare of our people. Congratulations!” Ihedioha wrote.

The message has since received wide engagement, reflecting the deep respect and political camaraderie between the two respected leaders.

Peter Obi, a former Governor of Anambra State, has continued to command a strong following across Nigeria, especially among young people and advocates of reform-driven governance. Ihedioha’s tribute further cements his own positioning as a respected voice in Nigeria’s political landscape and as a leader who values integrity and people-focused leadership.

Wishing Mr Peter Obi, a splendid birthday. A New Nigeria is POssible.

IHEDIOHA UNVEILS ADC AS REBUILD IMO MOVEMENT'S POLITICAL PLATFORM

In a major political turning point, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha has officially declared the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as the party of choice for the Rebuild Imo Movement and the wider national coalition. At a well-attended meeting in Owerri with movement leaders from all 27 LGAs, Ihedioha expressed deep gratitude for their loyalty and patience, describing the two-year wait for a party affiliation as a strategic decision rooted in principle, not pressure.

He praised the members’ steadfastness, saying, “We chose values over vengeance, vision over vanity.” Ihedioha noted that ADC emerged after careful national consultations as the most credible, people-driven platform for rebuilding Nigeria. The announcement was met with overwhelming support, as leaders unanimously pledged to follow his lead.

With this official alignment, the Rebuild Imo Movement now transforms into a full-fledged political force. Anchored on ADC’s platform and backed by solid grassroots structures, it is poised to reshape Imo's political landscape ahead of 2027. “We will present a credible, tested alternative—one that restores dignity to our politics,” Ihedioha declared. The wait is over; action has begun.

DEMOCRACY DAY: IHEDIOHA CHAIRS INAUGURAL NAPOC LECTURE ON JUNE 12 LEGACY

His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, CON, on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, chaired the maiden edition of the National Association of Political Correspondents (NAPOC) Annual Lecture Series and book lunch, held at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja. Themed “The Legacy of Option A-4 and June 12 Election,” the lecture revisited the modified open ballot system used in the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential election—widely regarded as Nigeria’s freest and fairest.

Ihedioha, a former Governor of Imo State, ex-Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, and one-time political correspondent, brought a unique perspective to the event. In his remarks, he emphasized the importance of preserving democratic legacies and expressed confidence in the eventual national recognition of key figures like Prof. Humphrey Nwosu, who oversaw the historic election.

Distinguished scholars and political figures enriched the discourse as guest speakers. Prof. Tonnie Iredia, Chancellor of Tonnie Iredia University and former DG of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), and Prof. Jideofor Adibe of Nasarawa State University, offered deep insights into the Option A-4 voting system and its impact on electoral credibility in Nigeria.

Panel discussants included HE Labaran Maku, former Information Minister; Garba Shehu, spokesperson to President Mohammed Buhari; Prof. Abiodun Adeniyi, Registrar of Baze University; and Dr. Emeka Nwosu, Chairman of NAPOC’s Board of Trustees. They recounted their personal and professional experiences during the June 12 saga, shedding light on the political and media climate of the era.

Founded in 1988 during Nigeria’s transition from military to civilian rule, NAPOC comprises journalists who covered the defunct National Electoral Commission (NEC) at its Lagos headquarters. The association's inaugural lecture marked a significant moment in honouring democratic milestones and those who documented them.

IHEDIOHA SPEAKS ON DIPHTHERIA OUTBREAK IN IMO
...Urges citizens not to panic

Read Statement below 👇 👇 👇


“Let’s save the Children

Umunnem Ndi Imo,

I have followed actively the ongoing infectious disease outbreak in parts of our state. My heart goes out to the families who have lost their precious children to this disease outbreak. May the Almighty God console you all.

I appreciate our government officials, traditional rulers, Town Union Executives, religious leaders, indigenous Health Professionals and all leaders of thought at various levels who have worked tirelessly in raising awareness and making useful contacts towards containing this unfortunate disease outbreak. As we’ve been informed, the infectious disease outbreak was caused by diphtheria, a bacterial infection that mainly affects young children. It is completely preventable by administering the full doses of the vaccines to our newborns. This outbreak now clearly shows that there are some children in our homes who have never received the DTP vaccine or did not receive the complete three doses of it for full effectiveness, referred to as zero-dose children. Some parents, painfully, have been neglecting this important task of presenting their newborns for childhood immunization according to the NPI schedule. Let’s learn from this unfortunate incident and comply henceforth with all health advisories as they are scientifically proven. The disease is also said to be treatable when identified early and appropriate therapy is instituted. This means that we are not in a hopeless situation.

I therefore urge all citizens not to panic but to cooperate with the health authorities as they work diligently to contain this outbreak. Please, do as the professionals instructs: Let’s follow science even as we pray to Almighty God for divine protection and healing. Let’s avoid unproven remedies that may cause further complications for those affected. We should, as a people, pay greater attention to personal and environmental hygiene, including proper aeration of homes to avoid overcrowding, as prevention is always cheaper, easier and better than a cure. We should also visit health facilities for proper medical attention rather than resorting to self-medication.

This one, too, shall surely pass. We shall overcome.
