The group, however, pleaded with President Tinubu to create an Executive Bill to amend the constitutional provisions in order to create new states in Nigeria.

As reported by Vanguard, this was contained in a communique issued after the inauguration of the group in Nsukka, Enugu State, on Wednesday, April 9, 2025.

“After the inauguration and briefing by the National Coordinator, the Chapter pledged its loyalty to the National Body, threw its support behind Hon. Engr. Humphrey C. Nsofor and agreed to key into the 10 reasons the Alliance enunciated for the need to support President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-election as President come 2027.”

The group added that:

“The people of Enugu North Senatorial District (Nsukka political zone) have never had it this good in any Federal administration in the history of Nigeria. Your Excellency, we thank you most abundantly. All these appointments are of larger benefit to the Igbo in general.
