Ndigbo’s 2027 Agenda: Chekwas Okorie hosts meeting of Igbo leaders
The pioneer National Chairman and founder of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Chekwas Okorie, has called a meeting of Igbo political leaders and elite to discuss the mobilisation of Ndigbo towards 2027 elections and beyond.
In a letter he wrote inviting some Igbo leaders, Okorie said, “After a number of consultations, it became compelling that a select number of our leaders across political party lines and other critical stakeholders be invited to deliberate on what ought to be the agenda of Ndigbo in Nigerian politics irrespective of political party affiliation.”
Continuing the elder statesman stated: “God has blessed Ndigbo with a huge population and enviable geographical spread, which have remained largely untapped over the years. We have no excuse to lack relevance and well deserved respect in Nigeria.”

Okorie suggested that the meeting was not for 2027 alone. “We owe ourselves and our younger generations the responsibility to provide the required guidance and chart a deliberate action-plan to reverse our present unacceptable situation in a sustainable manner. It is for this and other related matters, that this meeting has become compelling and crucial.”
The meeting which is under the auspices of Igbo Agenda Dialogue, though political is non-partisan.
“I wish to emphasise that this meeting is non-partisan even as the subject matter is political,” Dr. Okorie insisted.
Majority of the invitees have enthusiastically accepted the invitation to the meeting which will hold in Abuja before end of August, 2025.
