Mgbenkemdi Endorses Ogah for 2027 Re-election Bid

On 15 September 2026, Prof. Ejike Hyacinth Mgbenkemdi publicly endorsed Amobi Godwin Ogah, the current representative for Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency in Abia State, for re-election in 2027. Mgbenkemdi emphasized that voters should assess Ogah's performance since he took office in 2023, focusing on his achievements rather than political sentiments.

He cited Ogah's contributions to healthcare, including the upgrading of Isuikwuato General Hospital and interventions at Achara Hospital, as well as medical outreach programs and the provision of medical equipment. In education, he mentioned scholarships and support for WAEC and ICT initiatives, arguing that investment in education yields long-term benefits.

Mgbenkemdi clarified that his support does not imply automatic re-election but is based on evidence of Ogah's performance and the potential benefits of continuity. He urged the electorate to consider Ogah's promises, delivered results, and remaining tasks before making their decision in 2027.
