The Mbaike Consultative Assembly, in collaboration with the Coalition of Mbaitolu Progressives, has formally endorsed Dr. Chima Matthew Amadi for the Imo State governorship seat in the upcoming 2027 election. The endorsement ceremony, held at the Team Mazi Organization (TMO) office in Owerri, was attended by prominent members of the Assembly and other stakeholders.
Ambassador Steve Nnadi, National President of the Mbaike Consultative Assembly, described Dr. Amadi as "the best foot forward" to succeed Governor Hope Uzodimma, whose tenure ends in 2027. Nnadi stated that after a comprehensive evaluation of potential candidates, the Assembly found Dr. Amadi to be a visionary leader with the competence and passion to transform the state.
"Looking at the political trajectory of Imo since 1999, we've experienced a mix of slow and uncoordinated development. We believe that Dr. Amadi possesses the intellectual capacity, experience, and sincerity to change the narrative," Nnadi said. He praised Dr. Amadi's humanitarian efforts, describing him as someone who has consistently used his resources and talent to uplift the underprivileged.
Other members of the Assembly also commended Dr. Amadi's leadership qualities, describing him as a "new sheriff in town" capable of rescuing Imo State from poor governance. Comrade Uzoma Ekeanyanwu expressed full commitment to the project, stating, "Our principal, Dr. Chima Amadi, is a good man. Together with our DG,
Chief Henry Onwukwe, and National Coordinator, we are ready to work tirelessly to secure his victory under the Mbaike Consultative Assembly."
The endorsement ceremony concluded with the official decoration of the Mbaike Consultative Assembly members with TMO aprons and caps, symbolizing their commitment to the 2027 governorship project. Chief Henry Onwukwe, Director General of Team Mazi Organization (TMO), appreciated the endorsement and assured the Assembly of their message reaching Dr. Amadi. He described Mbaike as a stronghold in electoral compliance and urged the group to extend the campaign across all 63 autonomous communities and 24 INEC wards in the constituency.
