Coalition Of Abia Women In Politics Declares Support For Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor For Abia Central Senate

The Coalition of Abia Women In Politics has declared its total support for Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor as its preferred candidate for the Abia Central Senatorial District in the 2027 general elections.

The declaration was made at a well-attended meeting of women leaders, politicians, professionals and grassroots mobilizers from across the six Local Government Areas of Abia Central, held in Umuahia, the Abia State capital on Wednesday.

Speaking on behalf of the Coalition, its leadership described Hon. Ugbor as a woman of proven capacity, integrity, compassion and vision, who has consistently stood for the welfare of women, youths and the less privileged in the society.

According to the group, Abia Central needs a Senator who understands the pains and aspirations of the people, and Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor fits that description perfectly.

“Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor is not just a candidate, she is our own. She is a mother, a leader, a voice for women and a voice for the voiceless. We have watched her, we have tested her, and we are convinced she will give Abia Central the quality representation it deserves,” the Coalition stated.

The group noted that women have for too long been sidelined in the politics of Abia Central, and that the time has come for a competent woman to take the lead in the Senate to champion issues of women empowerment, girl-child education, healthcare, job creation and community development.

“We, the women of Abia Central, have decided to take our destiny in our own hands. We are no longer going to be used as cheerleaders in elections. We are going to be at the forefront, and our choice is Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor,” the statement added.

The Coalition therefore called on the electorate in Abia Central, both men and women, young and old, to throw their weight behind Hon. Ugbor and ensure her emergence and victory in 2027.

It also urged women across Ikwuano, Umuahia North, Umuahia South, Isiala Ngwa North, Isiala Ngwa South and Osisioma Ngwa to mobilize massively, collect their PVCs and vote for Hon. Ugbor.

“We are calling on all electorates in Abia Central to join this movement. Vote for a woman who cares. Vote for a woman who delivers. Vote for Hon. Evangelist Blessing Ugbor for Senate,” the Coalition declared.

The meeting ended with a unanimous endorsement and a pledge to embark on ward-to-ward mobilization for Hon. Ugbor ahead of the elections.
