Imo APC faces major setback as top politicians join Chima Amadi’s TMO

In a shocking move that has sent tremors through the Imo State political landscape, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has lost a significant number of its members to The Mazi (Gburugburu) Organization (TMO).

The mass defection, which was made official on Thursday, March 6th, 2025, saw prominent politicians from various parties in Imo State join the ranks of TMO. The defectors, who were received warmly by the organization’s leadership, cited the APC’s failure to deliver on its promises and the organization’s commitment to grassroots development and humanitarian work as reasons for their decision.

Among the notable politicians who have joined TMO are Okenze Engr. Paul Opara, immediate past APC Zonal Chairman of APC, Owerri Zone; Hon. Udo Agoha, former Commissioner for Agriculture and State Coordinator Big Tent, Imo State; and Hon. Titus Anyanwu, Okenze Henry Unegbu, Hon Chinenye Ezurike, immediate past Chairmanship Aspirant in the just concluded Local Government Council election, Ezinihitte.

Others include Princess Julieth Anyanwu, Engr Fred Kamalu, Dr. Uzor Mmezi, ADP State State Chairman, Engr. Paul Ejiogu former and the APC ward Chairmen from Ngor Okpala LGA.

The Mazi (Gburugburu) Organization, led by Dr. Chima Matthew Amadi, has welcomed the new members and assured them that their decision to join the organization will be a worthwhile one. With the influx of these seasoned politicians, TMO is poised to mobilize the people to craft the Imo of their dream.

The organization has called on all Imo citizens to join them in their quest for a better future. With a focus on inclusivity, transparency, and accountability, TMO is committed to providing a platform for all Imo citizens to participate in the decision-making process and contribute to the development of the state.

The mass defection is seen as a significant blow to the APC’s stronghold in Imo State, and it remains to be seen how the party will respond to the loss of its members. One thing is clear, however: The Mazi (Gburugburu) Organization is a force to be reckoned with in Imo State politics.
