A Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Engr. Anselm Ijebor, has expressed support for former Anambra State Governor and ex-Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

Ijebor said he would mobilise support for Obi, describing him as a leader with a track record in public service.

According to him, Nigerians should support candidates they believe possess the experience, vision and capacity to address the country’s challenges.

He also mentioned former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, saying both leaders have demonstrated commitment to public service and enjoy the support of many Nigerians.

“As the 2027 general election approaches, Nigerians have an opportunity to elect leaders with the experience, vision and capacity to deliver good governance and rebuild the country,” he said.

Ijebor commended Obi’s tenure as governor of Anambra State, saying he demonstrated integrity, competence and commitment to development.

He further expressed the view that an Obi-led administration would prioritise infrastructure, education, healthcare, agriculture, job creation, security and youth and women empowerment.

He urged eligible voters to participate peacefully in the electoral process and support candidates of their choice.

“I call on every eligible voter, every youth, every woman, every elder and every stakeholder to participate in the democratic process and support the candidate they believe can move Nigeria forward,” he said.

Ijebor also said Obi’s contributions to national development and unity have earned him recognition across the country.

He called on Nigerians to remain committed to peaceful and issue-based campaigns ahead of the 2027 general elections. (Vanguard)
