Abia State, Amos Oge Kalu, Opinion, Politics2027, Abia State, Opinion, Politics

By OHAFIATV Editorial Desk As Bende approaches the 2027 election, the critical question is not simply who should represent the constituency, but what kind of representation does Bende need? The answer is straightforward: representation that is accessible, development-driven and capable of attracting opportunities from the federal government.

Column, News, Opinion, Politics2027, Nigeria, Politics

WEEK TWO (August 27 - September 2nd). It truly has been an engaging second week of Campaigns, with the Cheerleaders and Agents of the Candidates troubling my Phones via calls and Whatsapp Messages... We've got interesting times ahead. It is however, very obvious that the leading candidates and the others appreciate that the present Season Of Campaign MUST BE issues based, and nothing more... Darts, vitriols and empty propaganda cannot and will not take you there... Nigeria demands more, and that we SHALL and MUST ensure, the Almighty giving us strength. The second week of Campaigns saw the Presidential Candidate…
