A team of intellectuals set up to assess the aspirants which included senatorial aspirants from the zone gave a report on all the aspirants.

The team, however, reported the “overwhelming scorecard and impressive performance” of Princess Onuoha, the member representing Okigwe North in the House of Reps.

One of those at the meeting who spoke to THE WHISTLER on condition of anonymity said the meeting was across party lines.

“She was unanimously endorsed for a second term as a special case for good performance,” he stated.

Princess Onuoha, who confirmed the development to this website on Tuesday, said she broke down in tears at the endorsement from people she described as the “eggheads” of the constituency.

“I broke down with tears of joy and I am indeed motivated to do even more and give God all the glory,” she said.

This is coming after a similar endorsement by the Okigwe North Elders Forum led by Engineer Ebere Udeagu, a former deputy governor of Imo State.

The Okigwe North elders had endorsed her for a second term due to the various developmental initiatives she brought to the constituency.
