Granted she has done well in selfless community services, equipping farmers with modern farming tools, awarding educational scholarships, and giving seeds capital to small business owners, Queen Opurum promised to consolidate on her good works to do even more for the people if given the opportunity to serve.
The youths gyrated, the women group chanted victory songs; celebrating her enterance into the APC family, and promised to galvanize grassroots support for their new political bride who has come to change the narrative of effective representation.
Highpoint of the event was a traditional rite performed by the Council of Nwangele Traditional Rulers under the Chairmanship of His Royal Highness, Eze (Hon.) Uzomah Onunenyi (Ekiti ll of Ekitiafor Abba ), as they unanimously washed her legs , poured libations for divine protection, and blessed her political aspiration to represent the good people of Nkwerre/Isu/Nwangele/Njaba Federal Constituency, ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Barr. Harrison Nwadike, whom many have accused of lacking the political sagacity and clout to give NINN Federal Constituency a voice in the House of Representatives.
