DLA's Aliuna Withdraws from 2027 Reps Race for Peace

Hon. Godwin Aliuna, the Democratic Leadership Alliance (DLA) candidate for the Ebonyi/Ohaukwu Federal Constituency in the 2027 general election, has officially withdrawn from the House of Representatives race. He cited the need to promote peace, progress, and development in Ebonyi State as the primary reason for his decision.

Aliuna made this announcement following extensive consultations with his constituents, political associates, and key stakeholders, emphasizing that the broader interest of Ebonyians should take precedence over individual political ambitions. He noted that his decision was challenging due to his commitment to effective representation and development for the constituency.

Aliuna outlined his development agenda, which includes investments in infrastructure, agriculture, education, and human capital development. He expressed concerns about poverty and unemployment in the area and stated that he would mobilize support for Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru in the 2027 governorship election, recognizing the importance of peace in political contests.
