There will be no room for that under my watch<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not going to take this trust and confidence reposed in me for granted.

No, rather, we should see it as an act of God and his favour,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Nwoye took over from Chief Emma Enukwu who also hails from Enugu State, and had served 13 years at the APC National Secretariat in various capacities.<\/p>\n<p>He also thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for creating the enabling environment for the party to have a robust, seamless and peaceful national convention last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Nwoye described Tinubu as a great political leader with fantastic ideas aimed at driving the nation\u2019s economy to expected destination, adding that as his lieutenants, they would do every humanly possible to ensure that the president is re-elected in the upcoming general election in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>He equally expressed appreciation to Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State for his role in galvanising the state delegates to the convention, stressing that he truly demonstrated that he is indeed, leader of the party in the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to assure our party faithfuls that now is time for healing and total reconcilation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we move forward, we shall work tirelessly to reposition our great party in Southern Nigeria for greater successes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether, we shall match forward, united, focused and determined to secure victory for Mr. President and all the candidates of our great party in the upcoming general election in 2027. It\u2019s our responsibilities to do that,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n<p>Other APC chieftains that spoke at the event included the South East women leader, Dr Mrs Oby Ajih, former Commissioner in the Federal Character Commission, who represented Enugu State, Ambassador Ginika Williams Tor, Chief of Staff to Nwoye, Hon.
