The council chairmen in the Enugu North Senatorial District have reaffirmed their support for Governor Peter Mbah's reelection ahead of the 2027 general elections. This decision was announced at the inauguration of the Peter Mbah Progressive Movement, Enugu North District, held on 17 March in Enugu.
The council chairmen praised Governor Mbah's administration for its creditable performance in rebuilding infrastructure, improving security, and accelerating socio-economic transformation in Enugu State. They specifically highlighted the governor's commitment to the development of the Nsukka Zone, which has earned him the people's confidence.
The Enugu North Senatorial District, also known as the Nsukka zone, has a strong backing for Governor Mbah's reelection. The council chairmen are ready to support him decisively when called upon.
The Peter Mbah Progressive Movement aims to mobilise the people for the governor's reelection. The group was inaugurated at the International Conference Centre, Enugu, by the Secretary to the Enugu State Government, Chidiebere Onyia.
The Enugu State Governor's reelection bid has gained significant momentum with the support of local council chairmen in the Enugu North Senatorial District. This move is a testament to Governor Mbah's commitment to the development of the Nsukka Zone. However, it remains to be seen if this support will translate to tangible benefits for the people of Enugu State. The All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman in Enugu State, Martins Chukwunweike, and the Chairman of the Association of Local Governments in Nigeria (ALGON), Enugu State chapter, Sydney Okechukwu Edeh, have also thrown their weight behind Governor Mbah's reelection. As the 2027 general elections approach, NaijaBuzz will be monitoring the developments closely to assess the impact on the people of Enugu State.
