Mbah Challenges Political Opponents to Present Records of Achievements, Plans Ahead of 2027 Election

Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mbah, has challenged his political opponents to present verifiable records of their achievements and concrete development plans, insisting that the electorate should support leaders with proven performance rather than those who rely on propaganda.

Mbah made the remarks while addressing supporters during his re-election campaign activities ahead of the 2027 governorship election in the state.

The governor urged the people of Enugu to critically examine the credentials, track records and policy proposals of those seeking their mandate, arguing that leadership should be determined by what candidates have accomplished and what they intend to achieve for the people.

According to him, his administration had presented its records and development agenda to the electorate during the 2022–2023 electioneering period, insisting that political opponents should equally be prepared to demonstrate what they have achieved.

“We’re dealing with a people without records because they cannot point to anything they have done in life. Not one,” Mbah said.

He alleged that some of those criticising his administration could not point to meaningful achievements, adding that the electorate deserved leaders with genuine records of service and accomplishment.

The governor asked Enugu voters to judge him and his political opponents by their records and credibility.

Mbah further challenged opposition politicians to articulate clear policy proposals for critical sectors, including education, healthcare, agriculture and the economy.

He maintained that political campaigns should be about presenting workable ideas and development programmes capable of improving the lives of the people, rather than engaging in propaganda and attacks.

The governor expressed confidence in the judgment of Enugu voters, describing them as politically conscious and capable of distinguishing between genuine development records and what he characterised as political misinformation.

He urged the electorate not to be swayed by what he described as propaganda from political opponents, but to remain focused on leadership, performance and demonstrable achievements.

Mbah’s remarks come as political activities gradually gather momentum ahead of the 2027 general elections, with the governor seeking another mandate to continue his administration’s development agenda in Enugu State.
