Enugu Media Village (EMV), the Most Updated Online News Platform — November 5, 2026.
THE ENUGU STATE chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has unveiled an operational strategy for its 2027 general election campaign, activating its 51 directorates to coordinate political mobilisation, strengthen internal organisation and expand engagement across the state.
The strategy was disclosed following a high-level meeting of the Enugu State APC Campaign Council held on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, involving directors, zonal secretaries and Deputy Directors-General representing the three senatorial districts.
The meeting was presided over by the Director-General of the Campaign Council, Chief Dr. Charlie Mbah, with the Secretary-General, Dr. Eric Oluedo, also in attendance.
51 Directorates to Drive Campaign Coordination
Speaking after the meeting, the Campaign Council’s spokesperson, Barr. Steve Oruruo, explained that the gathering was convened to establish clear responsibilities for the various directorates, eliminate operational overlaps and ensure effective coordination of campaign activities.
He stated that the framework would introduce defined responsibilities, accountability mechanisms, regular feedback and monitoring structures to enhance operational efficiency.
According to him, the Director-General also encouraged members to demonstrate commitment, discipline and cooperation in carrying out their respective assignments.
Broad-Based Structure for Statewide Engagement
The 51 directorates cover several strategic areas, including administration, finance, fundraising, public communication, mainstream media, new media and strategic communication, research and strategy, election planning, security, legal services, grassroots mobilisation, logistics and welfare.
Other directorates focus on women’s mobilisation, youth engagement, parliamentary mobilisation, trade unions, market associations, voters’ education, persons with disabilities, non-indigene coordination, inter-party affairs and peace and reconciliation.
The structure is designed to connect the campaign organisation with political stakeholders, community leaders, professionals, youths, women and other groups across Enugu’s three senatorial districts.
Campaign Council Targets All 17 Local Government Areas
Barr. Oruruo explained that the council’s broader objective is to establish an organised campaign structure capable of reaching communities, wards and polling units throughout Enugu State.
He emphasised that the campaign would prioritise direct voter engagement and the presentation of documented information on the policies, programmes and achievements of the administrations of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah.
The council also expressed its intention to coordinate activities across all elective positions, including the presidential, governorship, senatorial, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly elections.
Leadership and Accountability
The Enugu APC Campaign Council is chaired by Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, with Chief Dr. Charlie Mbah serving as Director-General and Dr. Eric Oluedo as Secretary-General.
The campaign organisation has also appointed coordinators and deputy campaign directors-general for the three senatorial districts to strengthen coordination and ensure that the campaign structure reflects the state’s geographical and political divisions.
The council’s leadership says the operational framework will provide a basis for collaboration among the various directorates while ensuring that their activities are guided by clear responsibilities and measurable contributions.
As preparations for the 2027 general elections continue, the unveiling of the operational framework represents another phase in the Enugu APC’s campaign preparations, with the effectiveness of the structure expected to depend on coordination, accountability and its ability to engage voters across the state.
