 Former Abia Speaker Enweremadu Endorses Tinubu for 2027 Re-election, Declares Senate Bid for Abia Central


Rt. Hon. Christopher Ogbonnaya Enweremadu, a former Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly, has thrown his weight behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's bid for a second term in the 2027 presidential election, while announcing his intention to vie for the Abia Central Senatorial District seat under the All Progressives Congress (APC).


Enweremadu made the dual declarations during a well-attended enlarged political meeting of APC members and stakeholders from other parties held in Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area on Saturday at the Ekwu Palace in Ahiaba Okpuala.


Acknowledging the prevailing economic difficulties across Nigeria, the former lawmaker commended President Tinubu for his administration's bold, far-reaching reforms, which he said have bolstered the nation's position on the global stage. He called on Nigerians—especially those in the South-East—to sustain their support for the "Renewed Hope" agenda, promising that the long-term gains would soon become evident.


"The President means well for the Igbo," Enweremadu declared. "If they vote massively for Tinubu in 2027, the President will always remember them." He lamented the relatively low support in the previous election and pledged a dramatic turnaround, vowing that Abia Central would deliver over 80% of its votes to Tinubu, far surpassing past benchmarks.


The ex-commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC, described his move as essential to ensuring his constituents benefit from the ruling party's federal presence.


Enweremadu spotlighted the historical marginalization of Isiala Ngwa North within Abia Central Senatorial District. Since democracy's return in 1999, it remains the only one of the six LGAs in the zone yet to produce a senator. He recounted his past assistance in enabling senators like Chris Adighije, Bob Nwanunu, and Nkechi Nwaogu to reach the upper chamber, expressing optimism that reciprocity would now favor a candidate from his area—likely himself.


Dismissing suggestions that he is "too young" for the Senate at 59 (set to turn 60 next year), Enweremadu quipped that such critics lack substantive grounds for opposition. If successful in securing the APC ticket and winning the seat, he promised to harness his extensive political experience to advocate effectively for the district's fair share of national resources and development projects.


Tony Otuonye, Director-General and Coordinator of the City Boy Movement in Isiala Ngwa North, praised Enweremadu's dedication to forging stronger political alliances between the LGA and other parts of Abia State.


The event drew endorsements from several prominent figures, including Chiefs Uzoma Onwauka, Lucky Nwaogu, Okey Nguma, Joshua Onyenkwere, and Elizabeth Esochaghi. They hailed Enweremadu as a committed, visionary leader focused on regional progress and political empowerment, pledging unwavering support for his senatorial ambition.
