Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Prince Chibudom Nwuche
A group under the auspices of “Nwuche Support Group” has rebutted rumours that former deputy speaker of the House of Representatives, Prince Chibudom Nwuche, is interested in the Ekpeye kingship.
The group said Nwuche, who is the Esama Logbo of Ekpeyeland in Rivers State, does not wish to occupy the vacant stool of the Eze Ekpeye Logbo of Ekpeyeland as the Eze Ekpeye Logbo III, and urged the Ekpeye people and the general public to discountenance the rumours.

In a statement issued at Ahoada, the leader of the group, High Chief Kroham Joel, described the rumour as mischievous and being sponsored by known political interests within the area who want Nwuche out of the political space by luring him to the traditional stool of Eze Ekpeye Logbo.
He maintained that Nwuche has never shown any interest in the stool and has indeed blessed all the aspirants that have collected nomination forms and urged them to all work for the interest and development of Ekpeye Kingdom.
Kroham, who described Nwuche as having very high regard and respect for the Eze Ekpeye Logbo stool, said the Ekpeye people at this time would rather prefer Nwuche, who is the political leader of Ekpeye with national reach, to remain in the political scene.
