Aduaka Anthony A., the chapter admonished the winners to be magnanimous in victory.

“We are, however, asking you to be magnanimous in victory and carry others along in your stewardship for the next two years in office.

“We also commend the Executive Governor of Enugu State Rt. (Hon) Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi for conducting the election as and when due instead of “planting” care-taker committee Chairmen for the period. We say Cherio to the Governor of peace and excellence.
