2027: Federal Lawmaker, Nwobasi Insists His Track Record’ll Secure Re-Election
The Federal Lawmaker representing Ezza North/Ishielu Federal Constituency of Ebonyi State in the House of Representatives, Joseph Nwobasi, has declared that his track record and quality representation will earn him re-election in 2027 general election.
Nwobasi, who is seeking re-election into the Green Chamber under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), made the assertion in Abakaliki, the state capital, on Wednesday, when he led a team of selected journalists on an assessment visit to ongoing and completed constituency projects he attracted to his district.
The projects included road rehabilitation and construction, health centres and equipment, bridges, classroom blocks, the provision of several transformers and motorised boreholes, and the installation of streetlights.
Some of the benefiting communities included Oshiegbe, Ezillo, Umuogara, Ntezi and Ndegu Amorie.
Nwobasi assured that all the ongoing projects in the constituency would be completed before May 29, 2027.
On the issue of human capital development and empowerment, Nwobasi maintained that 13 students benefiting from his scholarship programme would graduate very soon.
“During my last empowerment programme, I distributed 200 motorcycles, grinding machines and sewing machines, and assisted law students at various law institutions in the country.
“I have 45 persons on my payroll, outside my Senior Legislative Aides (SLAs) and personal aides.
“This year, I have the intention of increasing the number of beneficiaries. The students were drawn from across the various wards of the constituency.”
Speaking against the backdrop of political activities and the maintenance of peace in the constituency ahead of the forthcoming general election, Nwobasi stated that consultations and meetings were ongoing among stakeholders to ensure hitch-free polls.
The federal lawmaker expressed optimism that he would win the 2027 general election because of the positive impact and democratic dividends he had delivered to his constituents.
In an interview, a community leader in Ishielu, Mr Michael Ose, extolled the leadership ingenuity of the lawmaker, stating that the people were happy with the massive infrastructural development ongoing in the constituency.
