Our Managing Editor, Ekuson Nw’Ogbunka here writes, that as 2027 draws near, a new political energy is rising across Orumba South LGA and Ogbunka Ward 2. It is not built on big promises or empty slogans. It is built on service, unity, and the belief that leadership should walk with the people. Under the APGA banner and the, Omelora, symbol, a team of progressives is presenting itself as the answer to that call, a ticket that understands the terrain, knows the people, and is ready to deliver tangible results from day one.
The Era of Service Begins
For too long, politics has felt distant. This time, the message is different: leadership that understands the people, walks with the people, and works for the people. The focus is not on rhetoric, but on roads fixed, markets upgraded, clinics equipped, and youths engaged. That is the foundation of this new dawn.
Hon. Shedrack N. Azubuike Mayor,Orumba South LGA
Hon. Shedrack Azubuike comes to the race as a grassroots leader with a proven heart for service. He knows every road, every market, and every challenge facing our communities because he has been there. As Mayor, his agenda is clear: youth empowerment, road rehabilitation, functional healthcare centers, modernized markets, and transparent governance. His vision is an Orumba South where every town feels government presence.
Why Shedrack Matters Now
Orumba South needs a mayor who does not need a map to find the problems. Hon. Azubuike’s strength lies in accessibility and follow-through. His commitment is to ensure that federal and state interventions do not bypass our LGA, and that local resources are managed with accountability.
Dr. Mrs. Kate Obiorji, Deputy Mayor, Orumba South LGA
A woman of excellence, compassion, and capacity, Dr. Mrs. Kate Obiorji brings intellect, grace, and deep community experience to the ticket. She is not a newcomer to service. As Deputy Mayor, she will champion women and children’s welfare, health initiatives, education support, and community development programs.
The Mother’s Touch, the Professional’s Precision
With Dr. Obiorji on the ticket, Orumba South gains more than representation — it gains advocacy. From maternal health outreach to scholarships and skills training for girls and women, her portfolio is designed to strengthen the home, the school, and the clinic — the three places where development starts.
Hon. Prince Chika Okonkwo, COUNCILLOR, OGBUNKA WARD 2
Ogbunka Ward 2 deserves a voice that echoes in the council and a hand that works on the ground. Hon. Prince Chika Okonkwo has already lived that reality. Known for humility, accessibility, and problem-solving, he is running to serve, not just to hold office.
Chika’s Plan for Ward 2
His priorities are practical and immediate: better drainage to end seasonal flooding, direct support for farmers and traders, youth skills acquisition centers, and improved primary schools. These are not abstract ideas. They are the daily needs of families in Ogbunka, and they will be the benchmark for his tenure.
The Team: Capacity. Character.Community
What sets this ticket apart is cohesion. Under APGA and the _Omelora_ symbol, Hon. Azubuike, Dr. Obiorji, and Hon. Okonkwo are presenting a united front. One for the LGA, one for inclusive governance, one for the ward. Together, they represent progressives working together for one goal: to move Orumba South and Ogbunka Ward 2 forward.
Why this Moment Matters
2027 is not just another election. It is a chance to choose leaders who will be present between elections, not just during them. A chance to vote for capacity over noise, character over self-interest, and community over division. The progressives are saying: judge us by what we will build together.
Orumba South is rising. Ogbunka Ward 2 is ready. The new dawn is here and it is built by progressives working together.
The Call to Action, Vote for Progress. Vote For Results. Hon. Shedrack N. Azubuike, Mayor, Orumba South LGA,
Dr. Mrs. Kate Obiorji, Deputy Mayor, and
Hon. Chika Okonkwo,Councillor, Ogbunka Ward 2.
