The legislative arm of the Arochukwu Local Government Area of Abia State, last Friday, elect­ed its leadership following the issuance of proclamation by the council boss, Chief Kalu James Kalu.
Hon. Emmanuel Nwank­wo emerged the Leader of the Counsellors in the 19- member legislature.
Other principal officers were elected to reflect the five clans of the council namely: Arochukwu, Isu, Ihechiowa, Abam, and Ututu.
Other principal officers were Kenneth John, Deputy Leader; Kalu Okpi Udo, Ma­jority Leader; and Okereke Izuogu, Chief Whip.
Their election, according to the Leader, reflected the principle of equity among the five clans of the council namely: Arochukwu, Isu, Ihechiowa, Abam, and Utu­tu.
The leader pledged the willingness of the counsel­lors to work in harmony with the Chairman for rapid development of communi­ties in the council.
He thanked the Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu for his po­litical courage to organise a successful council poll in the state after over eight years the last elected council chairmen in the state vacated office, saying that the devel­opment would fast – track development in the rural communities.
