Biography
Chukwuma Michael Umeoji is a Nigerian Politician and a member in the Federal House of Representatives representing Aguata Federal Constituency Anambra State in the 9th National Assembly.
Umeoji was the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) flag bearer in the gubernatorial elections taking place on 6 November 2021. After his selection as candidate for governor, a party committee disqualified him from the primary election on grounds of 'defiance and insubordination to the party authority' and 'doubtful financial status'. He unsuccessfully appealed the disqualification.
A week before the November 6th election, Charles Soludo was confirmed the APGA candidate. In response, Umeoji joined rival party All Progressives Congress (APC).
He graduated from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka with a BA in Philosophy in 1992. He obtained a Master's in Philosophy from Nnamdi Azikiwe University.
