HON. KENOK JOINS THE CENTRE: A BOLD STEP FOR GREATER IMPACT IN EZZA NORTH EAST

HON. KENOK JOINS THE CENTRE: A BOLD STEP FOR GREATER IMPACT IN EZZA NORTH EAST

By Ebponyi GIST Lovers – 14/06/2025

In a move that has sparked wide admiration and deep reflection across Ebonyi State, especially in Ezza North East Constituency, Hon. Kelvin Kenechukwu Okeh (KENOK) has officially announced his defection from the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) to the All Progressive Congress (APC) — the ruling party in Ebonyi State under the leadership of His Excellency Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru.

In his public statement, Hon. KENOK made it clear that his decision is rooted in one thing and one thing only: the development and betterment of his constituents. With his usual humility and clarity of purpose, he explained that aligning with the Governor's administration is a strategic step towards unlocking even greater development for Ezza North East Constituency.


Why This Move Matters

In a state where party affiliations often define the flow of projects and attention, Hon. KENOK’s realignment positions him — and by extension, the people of Ezza North East — for more access to state resources, collaborative governance, and coordinated development.

His Excellency the Governor has shown leadership by advancing the People’s Charter of Needs, a roadmap to governance that is youth-inclusive, empowerment-driven, and peace-focused. From restoring harmony in troubled communities to empowering young people through scholarships, employment, and entrepreneurship, the Governor's vision resonates with what Hon. KENOK stands for.

By joining the APC, Hon. KENOK is not abandoning his roots — he is amplifying his voice where it matters most. And with his track record, there’s every reason to trust that this move is for the good of the people.


A Scorecard That Speaks Volumes

Before his defection, Hon. Kelvin had already distinguished himself as a rare performer in the Ebonyi State House of Assembly. In just one year, here’s a snapshot of what he has delivered for his people:

  • Drilled 6 new boreholes and repaired over 50 existing ones across all wards.
  • Restored electricity in Okposi Autonomous Community.
  • Procured a 500KVA transformer for Ogbaga, Agudiegwu, and Enyibichiri villages.
  • Built modern houses for the eldest man in Umuoghara and a childless widow in Azu-Ose.
  • Installed solar street lights in Imeli and Nweke Ishi Offia roads.
  • Enrolled 300 women and children into the State Health Insurance Scheme (EBSHIA).
  • Distributed fertilizers, cash palliatives to over 250 people, and captured 350 more for upcoming empowerment.
  • Facilitated 50+ successful medical surgeries for hydrocele and hernia patients.
  • Secured international scholarships for 4 constituents.
  • Worked hard for job placements, support for farmers, and Christmas welfare for the elderly, widows, and youth.
  • Attracted a modern classroom block, brought AMURT hospital, and enrolled 100 persons into BERWO Foundation healthcare.




This is service in motion — and now, with political alignment, the pace will only get faster and better.

The Way Forward for Ezza North East Constituency

We at Ebponyi GIST Lovers call on all sons and daughters of Ezza North East Constituency — youths, elders, traditional rulers, women groups, and town unions — to rally behind Hon. KENOK.

Party aside, this is a man who has shown vision, capacity, and results.

We must support him as he continues to speak for us in the State Assembly and partner with the Governor’s office to bring more roads, hospitals, schools, electricity, and empowerment to our land.

A Word of Gratitude to the Governor

We also wish to commend His Excellency Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru for creating a political atmosphere where merit is recognized and service is rewarded. The People’s Charter of Needs is not just a slogan — it is evident in every corner of Ebonyi State.

From youth empowerment to peace-building in communities, from education funding to healthcare access, the Governor is laying a solid foundation for sustainable development — and now, with Hon. KENOK joining the train, we say: Ebonyi is truly on the rise 

Hon. KENOK has taken a bold step — not for himself, but for all of us. The best response we can give is our united support and continuous prayers for wisdom and success.

Let’s move forward — together.
