2027: PRP Candidate Criticizes Mbah’s Development Record

Ray Kene Ogbodo, the Peoples Redemption Party’s governorship candidate in Enugu State, says Peter Mbah’s record should be judged by improvements in residents’ living conditions, not only by completed projects and public revenue. He noted that Enugu’s internally generated revenue reportedly rose from about N26.8 billion in 2022 to N406.77 billion in 2025, and said the increase should bring measurable reductions in poverty, sustainable jobs and better support for households. While acknowledging investments in roads, schools and healthcare facilities, Ogbodo called for stronger social protection, support for farmers and small businesses, youth employment and affordable healthcare. He urged Mbah’s administration to publish a citizens’ welfare scorecard covering incomes, employment, poverty reduction and access to essential services.
