On Wednesday, the All Progressives Congress (APC) elected Dr. Ijeoma Arodiogbu as the South-east zonal chairman during a zonal congress held at a hotel in Enugu. The election was conducted through a consensus arrangement, leading to a seamless transition from the outgoing zonal executive.

Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, who chairs the Southeast Governor Forum, emphasized the importance of unity and progress within the party.
