Stakeholders under the auspices of the Rivers Professionals (RIVPRO) have hailed the emergence of Ogundu Kingsley Chinda as the governorship Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State.
They called on other stakeholders and residents to massively support him, saying that if elected, Chinda possessed the capacity and competence to ensure inclusive governance in the state.
RIVPRO’s Director of Publicity, Nimi Solomon, in a statement, insisted that Chinda’s emergence was a positive step towards competent leadership in Ruvers.
Solomon said RIVPRO was pleased with Chinda because he embodied the qualities Rivers people had long desired in governance, such as professional excellence, administrative depth, and a broad‑minded, detribalized approach to leadership.
He said: “Chinda’s reputation as an astute and detribalized professional has earned him respect across ethnic, professional, and political lines.
Rivers State needs a leader whose vision transcends divisions and whose commitment to service is anchored on merit, fairness, and development.
“Hon. O. K. Chinda is an astute, detribalized professional with the leadership experience required to move Rivers State forward. His emergence signals a refreshing shift toward competence, integrity, and inclusive governance”.
Solomon expressed confidence that, if elected, Chinda would bring accountability, innovation, and people‑centered governance to the state.
He reaffirmed RIVPRO’s support for credible leadership and urged Rivers people to embrace the opportunity for progress.
