Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, on Saturday declared that the South-East, and Ebonyi State in particular, will vote for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.

Umahi made the declaration while noting that there is no space for the Peter Obi-led Obidient Movement in Ebonyi State.

The minister, a former governor of Ebonyi State, spoke during the Ohanivo 2025 New Yam Festival in Onicha LGA of the state.

According to Umahi, the South-East has been so marginalized that the region is no longer Obidient.

He said: “We are not Obidient people. We have been so marginalized that we are no longer Obidient. No, we are not.

“But it is the man that has given us a sense of belonging, President Bola Tinubu. Let it not be that we are from Ebonyi State and they are saying this state belongs to us. There is no Obidient person in Ebonyi State.”

Umahi said in 2027, the South-East – and Ebonyi State in particular – will reciprocate Tinubu’s good deeds by voting for him.

He insisted that the South-East, and the state, will not be ‘deceived again’ in 2027.

“What we have to do is to record the good things that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has done for South-East and Ebonyi State when the time comes.

“We will not be deceived again because the last election was a mistake but we have come to be wiser. I will not finish naming all that the President is doing for us,” he added.
