He commended Nwogu for his relationship with the movement and his contributions to its growth, assuring him of NDYM’s support as he prepares for the 2027 House of Representatives election.
Responding, Nwogu thanked the delegation for the visit and the confidence reposed in him, while congratulating the newly constituted leadership of the movement.
He urged the new executives to embrace purposeful leadership, unity and commitment in discharging their responsibilities, stressing that the success of the organisation would depend largely on their ability to work together in pursuit of its objectives.
The APC candidate also encouraged the leadership to remain focused on advancing the interests of Niger Delta youths and contributing meaningfully to the development of the region.
Nwogu further assured the delegation of his willingness to collaborate with the new leadership, pledging his continued cooperation and support towards strengthening the movement and advancing its ideals.
The visit ended on a note of solidarity, with the NDYM leadership reaffirming its recognition of Nwogu’s contributions and expressing support for his aspiration to represent Ukwa East and Ukwa West Federal Constituency at the National Assembly in 2027.
