Political Career & Party Realignment
Hon. Nkemkanma’s tenure in the 10th Assembly has been marked by a significant shift in political affiliation:
2023 Election: He was a key beneficiary of the “Obidient” movement, winning his seat under the Labour Party (LP). He defeated established candidates from the APC and PDP in a closely watched race.
Defection (September 2025): In a widely publicized move, he officially resigned from the Labour Party in July 2025 (with the news becoming prominent in September 2025).
Current Status: While his resignation letter emphasized “extensive consultations” with his constituency for the “greater good,” he has since moved toward alignment with the All Progressives Congress (APC) to better synchronize with the state government’s developmental agenda.

A bill to amend the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Act.
Constituency Projects: He is noted for his focus on rural infrastructure, particularly solar street lighting projects and water schemes within the Ohaozara, Onicha, and Ivo communities.
Public Opinion
Pragmatism vs. Party Loyalty: His defection from the Labour Party sparked significant debate. Supporters view it as a pragmatic step to secure federal and state resources for his people, while critics within the LP viewed it as a departure from the “third-force” ideology that got him elected.

Grassroots Presence: He is often described as a “silent achiever” by his constituents, known for maintaining a presence in his home ward (Amaze Ward) and engaging in community-led development initiatives.
