Chief Simon Eze, prominent entrepreneur and community leader, has once again thrown his weight behind the reelection of Governor Peter Mbah in Enugu State, urging widespread support across Akpugo and beyond as the 2027 elections draw closer.
In a statement released Thursday evening, Eze called on supporters in Akpugo, Nkanu West LGA, and across the state to rally behind Governor Mbah, describing him as a seasoned legal luminary whose leadership has brought stability and progress.
He emphasized that continuity under Mbah’s administration would ensure sustained development and consolidation of ongoing reforms.“The 2027 elections present us with a choice for stability and growth.
“I urge all our supporters, especially in Akpugo, to stand firmly behind Governor Peter Mbah’s reelection bid. “His vision and leadership remain critical for Enugu’s future,” Eze declared.
Chief Eze, Chairman/CEO of Golden Tree Hotel and Seamark Electric Nigeria Plc, is widely regarded as an influential voice within Akpugo and its environs.
His endorsement is significant given his reputation for mobilization and persuasive outreach, which observers say could prove decisive in the densely populated and economically vibrant Akpugo axis.
Political analysts note that the Enugu governorship race is already generating intense interest, with Governor Mbah seen by many as holding a strong advantage due to his track record and broad appeal.
Eze’s renewed endorsement underscores growing momentum for the incumbent as the state heads toward a highly competitive 2027 poll.
