\"2027:<\/p>\n

By Jeff Agbodo, Abakaliki<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Minister of Works, Francis Nwaze, has expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu will secure more votes in the South-East in the 2027 general elections, citing the administration\u2019s infrastructure projects and engagement with grassroots communities.<\/p>\n

\n

Nwaze, who is also the South-East Zonal Coordinator of the New Media Directorate of the APC 2027 Presidential Campaign Council, said the president had demonstrated commitment to the region through appointments and development projects.<\/p>\n

He spoke while interacting with journalists in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State.<\/p>\n

\n

According to him, the Tinubu administration has empowered young people through political appointments, including the appointment of a young person as chairman of the South-East Development Commission.<\/p>\n

\n

On the APC\u2019s strategy to secure more votes in the region, Nwaze said the campaign council was taking the administration\u2019s achievements directly to grassroots communities.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are in touch with the grassroots, and people are obviously celebrating the coming of Mr President since 2023. A whole lot of things have happened and the transformation is visible.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cPeople are appreciating it, especially as regards the appointment of our brother and my boss, the Honourable Minister of Works, who is causing a whole lot of transformation through the support of Mr President,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n

Nwaze listed the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway among the major infrastructure projects completed by the administration, adding that several other projects had either been completed or were ongoing across the South-East.<\/p>\n

\n

He said the improved condition of the expressway, including the installation of streetlights and concrete pavement, had made it safer and more accessible to motorists, even at night.<\/p>\n

\n

He added that the campaign council was highlighting the administration\u2019s infrastructure interventions through the Minister of Works and other ministries, departments and agencies to convince voters to support Tinubu\u2019s re-election bid.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are letting them know that Mr President has done a whole lot of things that should deserve his return, that we should overwhelmingly say that it is time for him to go back again.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cVery importantly, when he goes, he is going to continue to carry the people of the South-East along because he has shown it by what he has done in his first term,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n

The APC campaign official also cited the ongoing construction of the Ndibe Beach Bridge in Ebonyi State, which he said was nearly 50 per cent complete.<\/p>\n

\n

According to him, the bridge, when completed, will improve connectivity between parts of the South-East and Calabar, Cross River State, opening up additional routes for movement and economic activities.<\/p>\n

\n

He said residents and traditional leaders in some communities had expressed appreciation for the projects, noting that some had described the ongoing interventions as developments they had not expected to see.<\/p>\n

\n

Nwaze maintained that the campaign\u2019s message was based on what he described as visible achievements rather than political promises.<\/p>\n

\n

He also attributed the reduction in the price of food commodities to changes under the Tinubu administration, claiming that a 50kg bag of rice could now be purchased for as low as N50,000.<\/p>\n

\n

Expressing confidence in the president\u2019s re-election prospects, he said conversations with grassroots residents indicated growing support for Tinubu in the region.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThese are evidence-based. We are not talking of hearsay or promises that can be made without fulfilment.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, his second coming is going to be for prosperity and for the betterment of the people of the South-East, vis-\u00e0-vis Nigeria in general,\u201d Nwaze said.<\/p>\n
