IT IS TIME: Why Chimaobi Anyaso’s Aspiration Resonates with the People of Bende

By Emenike Okorie

In every generation, there comes a moment when service finds its natural progression into leadership. For Dr. Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso, popularly known as Ofuji, that moment appears to have arrived.

For more than two decades, Anyaso has built a reputation not through political office but through consistent investment in people. Through educational scholarships, healthcare interventions, youth empowerment initiatives, community development projects, and humanitarian support, he has demonstrated a philosophy of leadership rooted in compassion and responsibility.

His declaration to contest for the House of Representatives in 2027 under the platform of the Labour Party is, therefore, not merely another political ambition; it is the continuation of a long-standing commitment to public service. Having touched countless lives through private initiatives, he now seeks a broader platform to attract opportunities, influence policies, and champion the developmental needs of Bende Federal Constituency.

What makes his aspirationnoteworthy is the emphasis on character, competence, empathy, and proven impact. At a time when citizens increasingly demand results-oriented representation, his message speaks directly to the desire for purposeful leadership that prioritizes people over politics.

The “It Is Time” message is more than a campaign slogan. It is a call for a new chapter in Bende’s political journey—one where youth empowerment, infrastructure development, women’s inclusion, and effective representation become central priorities.

As the 2027 elections approach, many observers believe that the conversation in Bende will not only be about who seeks office, but about who has consistently demonstrated the capacity and willingness to serve. In that conversation, Dr. Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso’s record of service places him among the notable voices shaping the future of the constituency.

Indeed, if leadership is measured by impact, then many would agree that for Ofuji and the people of Bende, the time has come.

It’s Ofuji’s Time!
