Umahi’s son elected Ohaozara LGA chairman, pledges not to collect salary
Osborn Nweze Umahi, son of the Minister of Works, David Umahi, has been elected chairman of Ohaozara Local Government Area in Ebonyi State.
The 28-year-old contested the local government election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC). He secured victory after a campaign focused on grassroots mobilisation, economic development and improved local administration.
Shortly after being declared the winner, Umahi announced that he would not collect any salary or allowances throughout his tenure. He said the decision was driven by a desire to channel local government resources toward development rather than personal financial benefits.
Umahi also pledged to prioritise infrastructure, youth empowerment, economic opportunities and improved service delivery across Ohaozara.
During the campaign, the son of the state’s former governor presented himself as a representative of a younger generation of politicians. He promised to introduce private-sector ideas, efficiency and innovation into local government administration.
According to him, strengthening grassroots governance is essential to addressing the economic and social challenges facing residents of the area.
