2027: LP candidate warns Abia youths against electoral violence

Chima Anyaso, the Labour Party candidate for Bende Federal Constituency in Nigeria's 2027 elections, has cautioned youths against engaging in electoral violence and resisting attempts to manipulate the electoral process. In Uzuakoli, Anyaso signed a social contract with the people of Bende Local Government Area, warning them against intimidation and electoral malpractice.

He emphasized that no election is worth one's life and no politician's ambition is worth destroying the future. Addressing stakeholders, Anyaso urged young people not to be used to perpetrate violence during elections and to scrutinize candidates' records and credentials. He promised to attract infrastructure development, including roads, hospitals, schools, and support for skills acquisition and youth opportunities, if elected.

Anyaso also pledged to serve a maximum of two terms, respecting the political understanding between the Umunna and Ikwu Isii blocs in the constituency.
