“Ogbonnaya Onu was a quintessential gentleman. He was very quiet but very effective in all he does. He believed he could add value to the polity and he did just that. He is one of the unsung heroes of this country. “I had a very special relationship with him. Many people don’t know that Ogbonnaya Onu was not just a politician. This is a man who made a first class in engineering, he was the first civilian governor of Abia state during the SDP/NRC days.”Mohammed also lauded the late Onu for the sacrifices he made for the merger that birthed the ruling All Progressives Congress .
“For a national chairman of a legacy party to support and work for the success of the merger means that he was ready to give up his own position, because with the merger, all the legacy chairmen like Chief Bisi Akande, late Tony Momoh and Onu had to vacate their position for just one new chairman.”
