2027: Aba GSM Traders (Clothing Materials sellers ) of Bende Extraction Declare Total Support for Dr. Chima Anyaso
A group of traders of Bende extraction based in Aba, Abia State, have declared their total support for Dr. Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso’s ambition to represent Bende Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The endorsement was made earlier today during a gathering held at the former Old Court Primary School, Aba.
Speaking on behalf of the traders, Sir Ikechukwu Uba the leader of the group described Dr. Anyaso as a worthy son of Bende who has consistently demonstrated love and commitment to the welfare of the people through empowerment programmes and educational initiatives.
According to him, Dr. Anyaso’s contributions towards the development of Bende communities have continued to impact lives positively both at home and in the diaspora.
“Ofuji, you have been a source of inspiration to ndi Bende. You have empowered many people, and your free education initiative in Bende is the first of its kind. Nobody has beaten that record. You have never turned your back on ndi Bende, and we will never turn our back on you,” he stated.
The group further assured the Labour Party candidate of their unwavering support, revealing that many members had transferred their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) back to Bende in preparation for the 2027 elections.
“We are declaring our total support for you. Ndi Bende has felt your impact outside government, and we want to experience it more when you are elected into office. We will support and send you to the House of Representatives,” the group leader added.
Responding, Dr. Chima Anyaso thanked the traders for the show of confidence and support, promising not to disappoint them if elected.
He noted that his current interventions and empowerment efforts are only a fraction of what he intends to accomplish with the platform and resources available in public office.
Dr. Anyaso assured the gathering that his representation would focus on delivering meaningful development and opportunities to the people of Bende Federal Constituency.

…Says Protocol, Not Ego, Is at Stake
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has come out in strong support of Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo, backing his stance that Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, should have informed him before visiting the state.
Speaking at the commissioning of the New Edo Line project in Benin City, Wike criticized Obi for failing to notify Governor Okpebholo ahead of his visit. He pointed out that during his own tenure as governor, Obi consistently followed due process by seeking clearance before entering Rivers State.
“Peter Obi never came to Rivers without informing me. That’s the proper protocol,” Wike stated. “You don’t just enter another governor’s territory unannounced, especially as a major political figure.”
Wike emphasized that the issue goes beyond politics or personal ego. Instead, he framed it as a matter of administrative courtesy and security coordination, particularly given Obi’s position as a leading opposition voice under the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition.
He argued that any political visit by a figure of Obi’s stature demands prior notice to ensure appropriate security and logistical arrangements.
“If anything were to happen while he’s in Edo and the governor is unaware, the blame falls on the state government. That’s why protocol exists — to protect everyone involved,” Wike asserted.
He concluded by insisting that Governor Okpebholo was right to demand such notification, calling it a standard and necessary practice in governance.
Telecommunications operators in Nigeria have confirmed the restoration of SIM swap services across the country. This follows a recent disruption that left millions of subscribers unable to access the service.
The operators, in a joint statement, assured customers that normal operations have resumed and all affected services are being gradually restored. They also apologized for the inconvenience caused during the downtime and pledged to implement measures to prevent a recurrence.
The disruption had sparked widespread concern among users, particularly those needing urgent SIM replacements due to lost or damaged cards.
