The Ukwa La Ngwa Socio-Cultural Group, comprising nine of the seventeen local government areas in Abia State, paid a solidarity visit to Chief Obinna Oriaku (Ekwedike) at his country home in Owerrinta.
Leading the delegation, Elder Ogechi Chile stated that the visit was to express solidarity with Chief Oriaku following the recent developments in Abuja, where his name was reportedly substituted despite Senate clearance.
