Agom-Eze stated, “As we celebrate your Excellency on your victory at the poll, please remember women in politics who were lobbied during APC primaries thereby decreasing the number of women elected as parliamentarians in the just concluded National Assembly election.

“It is my prayer that Your Excellency will reward the women, more especially those who participated at the primaries with appointments. We, women are asking for 35 per cent in the appointive positions. We all worked hard during the elections to ensure your victory.

The APC woman leader who doubled as the Ebonyi Coordinator of the Women and Youths Presidential Campaign Team (WYPCT) congratulated Ebonyi women and youths who worked hard to ensure that Buhari won the required number of votes in the state.
