Chief Prince Chukwudi Oli,
popularly known as Oba Ezeafia and the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA)
candidate for the Dunukofia/Njikoka/Anaocha (DNA) Federal Constituency, has
declared that his journey to the House of Representatives has already begun,
promising a new chapter for the constituency ahead of the 2027 general
election.
Fresh from receiving his Certificate of Return at the APGA
Regional Office in Awka on Friday, Oba Ezeafia wasted little time looking ahead
to the next political battle.
The APGA flagbearer, who emerged victorious in the party’s
primary election, said he is not treating his nomination as a celebration point
but as the beginning of serious work.
According to him, the task before him is bigger than
politics and is rooted in a sense of purpose he believes has been divinely
ordained.
“I have already started working,” he said confidently,
stressing that he and his team are focused on delivering on what they believe
is a God-given assignment.
PVCs Are The Key, He Says
With preparations for the 2027 elections gradually gathering
momentum, Oba Ezeafia used the opportunity to call on eligible voters across
Dunukofia, Njikoka and Anaocha to participate actively in the ongoing voter
registration exercise.
He described the Permanent Voter Card (PVC) as a powerful
tool capable of shaping the future of communities and determining who occupies
public office.
For residents who have not yet registered, he offered a
simple message: get your PVC and be ready to make your voice count.
According to him, APGA supporters and community leaders have
continued to sensitise people across the constituency on the importance of
registration and voter participation.
Promise Of A Different Kind Of Representation
Speaking about his decision to contest, the APGA candidate
said the DNA Federal Constituency is due for a fresh approach to
representation.
He explained that after reflecting on the constituency’s
political journey over the years, he became convinced that the time had come to
challenge old patterns and introduce a different style of leadership.
Rather than make long promises, he said he prefers to be
judged by action.
Oba Ezeafia insisted that if given the opportunity to serve,
residents would clearly notice the difference in performance and commitment.
On opposition candidates expected to join the race, he
remained unbothered.
His focus, he said, is not on rivals but on the people he
hopes to represent.
Ultimately, he believes the electorate will examine the
options before them and decide who best deserves their trust when the ballots
are cast in 2027.
