As Abia State looks ahead to the 2027 governorship election, I believe the time has come for us to make a clear and decisive choice about the future we want.

Ambassador Dr Osita Offor, “De Ultimate Commander” and Ikanga Gburugburu 1st of Ohafia Ancient Kingdom, has described Deputy Speaker Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu’s 2027 governorship bid is, in his words, “laughable.” Amb. Offor likened it to a self-inflicted delusion fueled by over-praise from sycophants who may not speak the truth, but cheer him on to release the significant resources entrusted to him from the centre—a reality Offor notes is normal, as wealth is meant to be enjoyed, not buried for nothing when people can chop.

As a stakeholder in the Abia State project that has ushered in a new Abia of our dreams. I, Hon. Udoeze Kalu, convener of Abia North Youth Agenda (ANYA), reiterate that people like one Daniel Akwari, a man who is still sucking from the feeding bottle of Rt. Benjamin Kalu as a member of SEDC, upon whose motivation he speaks, obviously lacks moral justification to speak evil against a man of integrity like Ambassador Dr Osita Offor, “De Ultimate Commander,” (Ikenga Gburugburu of Ohafia Ancient Kingdom).
