The Special Adviser to Delta State Governor on Infrastructure, Chief Nat Igbadi, has urged newly elected Ward 9 Executive in Aniocha South Local Government Area to serve as credible ambassadors of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The charge was delivered during the Ward 9 Congress held at Isheagu in Ewulu/Isheagu.
Chief Igbadi reminded members that the 2027 general elections are drawing near. He described the emergence of the Executive as an act of God and a collective decision of Ward leaders.
The Special Adviser cautioned against crediting any single individual for the outcome. According to Chief Igbadi, leadership demands unity, humility, and responsibility.
The new Executive is urged to carry every stakeholder along in party administration. Respect for leaders and members was emphasized as essential for harmony. Consultation, Chief Igbadi noted, should precede major decisions within the Ward.


Ward 9 members received commendation for calmness, maturity, and transparency throughout the congress. The Special Adviser observed that statewide electoral success begins with peace at the ward level.
Appreciation was extended to men, women, and youths for orderly conduct before, during, and after the election. The exercise was described as a collective victory for the party. Accountability and transparency were highlighted as guiding principles for the new executives.
Those elected include Sylvester Nwachukwu as Chairman! Patience Awuta as Vice Chairman; and Austin Adibeli as Secretary. These are among the 27-man Executive entrusted with steering the party affairs in Ward 9.
Chief Igbadi called for vigorous promotion of the Renewed Hope for More Agenda of President Bola Tinubu and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori ahead of 2027.
A vote of confidence was passed on the performance of both leaders and their prospects in the next elections were rated very high.


Party members were encouraged to intensify grassroots mobilization to secure victory in 2027.
