The candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress for the Benue State House of Assembly, Ado State Constituency, Hon. Mike Ogaba-Ojah, has unveiled a three-point agenda anchored on job creation, improved security and infrastructure development ahead of the 2027 election.
Ogaba-Ojah, who said his decision to contest was influenced by calls from constituents for him to offer himself for service, disclosed his agenda in an interview with Arewa PUNCH on Monday.
The politician said his proposed legislative agenda was developed around what he identified as some of the major challenges confronting residents of Ado State Constituency, particularly unemployment, insecurity, poor access to markets and inadequate basic infrastructure.
The 2027 general elections are expected to provide an opportunity for voters across the country to elect representatives at the state and federal levels, with candidates already beginning to articulate their programmes and mobilise support ahead of the polls.
In Benue State, the House of Assembly remains a critical arm of government in making laws, approving budgets and exercising oversight over the executive, while lawmakers also use their legislative positions to push issues affecting their constituencies.
