Members of youth Organisations from Abia Central senatorial district, including Oha Ngwa Youth association have backed the member representing Ikwuano/Umuahia federal constituency, Rep. Sam Onuigbo for Senate.

At his residence in Umuahia on Saturday, the youth organisations and unions said they have confidence in Rep. Onuigbo as one who can effectively represent them in the Senate, going by his antecedents as a member of the House of Representatives.

One of the youths and the chairman of Oha Ngwa Youths Association, Comrade Livinus Chisom said his members have observed the good works Onuigbo has been doing in the three local governments of Ikwuano, Umuahia North and South since 2015 when he became a member of the House of Representatives.
