President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s re-election campaign kicked off on a low note in the Southeast on Thursday as Owelle Rochas Okorocha, the only South East Governor of All Progressives Congress (APC), failed to attend the first strategy meeting of the zonal campaign council in Enugu.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Others, who were noticeably absent include former Senate President, Ken Nnamani, former Anambra State Governor, Chief Jim Nwobodo, four Ministers from the South East, Chris Ngige (Labour), Geofrey Onyeama (Foreign Affairs), Anthony Anwuka (Education\/State Minister) and Okechukwu Enelama (Trade and Investment).<\/p>\n

Ogbonnaya Onu, the Minister of Science and Technology was the only Minister from the South East that attended the closed door strategy meeting, convened by Miss Sharon Ikeazor, the Director of Buhari Campaign Council, South East.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

The meeting was earlier scheduled to start by 10.am but it was delayed for several hours, following the absence of some key stakeholders.<\/p>\n

It eventually commenced by 1.pm when it was obvious that Okorocha and other key stakeholders were not coming.<\/p>\n

Some inside sources who confided in journalists, blamed the absence of notable South East APC leaders on their dissatisfaction with the appointment of Miss Ikeazor, a political rookie without any electoral antecedents as the Director of the Buhari Campaign in the South East.<\/p>\n
