Former representative of Rivers South East Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Senator Magnus Abe has said that the investment of time and support by the Rivers State chapter of the Nigerian Automobile Technicians Association (NATA), into ‘SMA 4 Rivers Governor 2023’ will be rewarded.

Abe gave the assurance while speaking during an interactive session with NATA members in Port Harcourt recently.

In a statement by his spokesperson Mr Parry Benson, Abe said although he has no godfather, but trust in God and the people, saying that it is the people that have the power to install the government.

He said: “This time around, I have come to stand before you to plead with you to give me a chance and let us do something differently because I don’t have at godfather, you are my godfather.

“So, if I get into government, I go know say is you that put me there.

“All these other people that have a godfather, their godfather has done everything for them you are be my godfather.

“When you install a government, the people enter the government and close the door and everything they are discussing is about those that are in government.

“They don’t sit down to remember those of you who voted them into government. This time around, things are not going to be the same.

“That is why I have told Rivers people that for you to see something you have not seen before, you must be prepared to do the things you have not done before.

“If you want to experience what you have not experienced before, you must be prepared to do things differently. Invest in this project and that is how you will reap.”

Abe said the interactive session is aimed at giving the people the opportunity to make their contributions into the in-coming government as the government will be built around the people.

Earlier, State Chairman of NATA, Moses Anuba, expressed their profound joy to have Senator Magnus Abe (SMA) come into Elekahia Mechanic Workshop to meet with them and promised their unflinching support to the Senator’s ambition.

2027: NDC fixes October 20 for Campaign Council inauguration, Presentation of Certificates of Return

By Myke Uzendu, Abuja  The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has fixed October 20, 2026, for the inauguration of its Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), presentation of Certificates of Return to its candidates for the 2027 general elections and a strategic dinner for candidates contesting various elective positions.  The party also disclosed that its presidential and vice-presidential candidates, Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, respectively, would participate in consultations to determine key appointments in the campaign council.  National Chairman of the NDC, Senator Moses Cleopas Zuwoghe, announced this on Saturday at a press conference at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.  He said the campaign council’s organisational structure and timetable had been ready since the end of August, but its inauguration was being delayed to allow Obi and Kwankwaso to conclude consultations and recommend nominees for strategic positions.  According to him, the activities scheduled for October 20 would follow a meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC), where key decisions concerning preparations for the 2027 elections are expected to be considered and ratified.  Cleopas said the delay did not indicate inactivity or internal division, explaining that the party was committed to establishing a properly constituted campaign structure capable of coordinating its nationwide electoral activities.  He added that appointments would reflect national spread, competence, capacity and the ability of nominees to contribute meaningfully to the campaign.  The NDC chairman disclosed that Obi and Kwankwaso were expected to recommend nominees for several strategic positions in the Presidential Campaign Council, including Director-General, Deputy Director-General, campaign spokesperson, Director of Social Media and Financial Controller.  The candidates are also expected to nominate two additional officers who, alongside the party’s National Treasurer, will oversee the campaign council’s separate and dedicated bank account.  Cleopas said the arrangement was intended to ensure that the presidential and vice-presidential candidates were actively involved in decisions affecting the organisation, financing and direction of their campaign.  He maintained that the party leadership, the candidates and the National Leader, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, were united in their preparations for the 2027 elections.  The chairman said the campaign council would be formally announced after the national leadership received the candidates’ nominations and recommendations.  He argued that constituting the council without the active participation of the presidential candidate and his running mate would be inappropriate, given their central roles in the presidential contest. Cleopas also dismissed reports suggesting that the party was divided or struggling to organise itself ahead of the 2027 elections.  He said the press conference was partly convened to address concerns raised by party members, supporters and Nigerians over the apparent delay in establishing the presidential campaign structure.  The chairman maintained that the National Working Committee (NWC), NEC, National Leader and party structures at the state, local government and ward levels remained committed to the party’s candidates.  He equally rejected suggestions that Dickson was working with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to undermine the NDC presidential ticket.  Questioning the basis of the allegation, Cleopas said it would have been easier for Dickson to join the APC than to undertake the more demanding process of establishing and registering a political party if his objective had been to work for the ruling party.  He urged journalists to exercise caution in reporting political allegations and speculation, warning that misinformation could create unnecessary distrust and mislead the electorate. ...
