2027: APC signposts viewed as the only visible sign of governance in Ebonyi – analyst criticizes Nwifuru

Public‑affairs analyst Pascal Oluchukwu has rebutted Ebonyi Commissioner for Commerce and Industry Oguzor Nwali, who claimed that Governor Francis Nwifuru should be re‑elected in the 2027 general election.

Oluchukwu said the governor has not delivered sufficient results to justify a second term.

He made the remarks in a statement issued on Thursday.

Nwali cited projects completed by Nwifuru’s administration as reasons for the electorate to support the governor’s second‑term campaign.

Oluchukwu rebuked Nwali and urged him to provide specific examples of projects completed by the Nwifuru administration.

He noted that the flyover and tunnel constructed under the governor’s tenure have become a ‘large swimming pool.’

He added that APC signposts are the sole visible works in the state.

He also observed that the state, under Nwifuru, is replete with numerous unfinished and abandoned projects, even though federal allocations have risen over the past three years.

“From the Vanco flyover and tunnel that has since turned into a large swimming pool in this rainy season to the ICT University in Oferekpe Agbaja that has only partially completed staff quarters and then to the litany of uncompleted modern civil servant staff quarters and schools littered across the state, the story is the same: Nwifuru, who now receives more allocations, has done absolutely nothing to justify the huge billions of money he gets from the center.”

“Worse still, he and his large coterie of looting appointees feel greatly entitled to a second term in office without any records of achievements in the first. As a matter of fact and concern, APC’s 4+4=8 signpost projects have become the only visible sign that there’s a government in Ebonyi State,” he stated.
