Chimaroke Nnamani (born May 1960) is a Nigerian politician from Enugu State. He was Governor of Enugu State from 1999 to 2007 and is currently a People's Democratic Party (PDP) Senator for Enugu East.

Education

Nnamani, though born in Port Harcourt, hails from Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State. He attended the Methodist Primary School, Agbani Road, Enugu, and the College of Immaculate Conception (CIC), also in Enugu. He is a graduate of the College of Medicine, University of Nigeria (Enugu Campus) (1977–1983).

Political career

Nnamani was the governor of Enugu State from May 1999 until May 2007. He was elected as the senator representing Enugu East Senatorial District from 2007 to 2011 on the platform of the People's Democratic Party (PDP). He ran for re-election on the ticket of the newly registered People for Democratic Change (PDC) but surprisingly lost in the re-scheduled election of April 9, 2011, leading to mass boycott of subsequent elections by majority of his constituents who apparently lost faith in the electoral process.
