Osborn Nweze Umahi, 28-year-old son of the Minister of Works, David Umahi, has emerged Chairman-elect of Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, following Saturday’s local government election.
According to Vanguard, Umahi, contested the election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and is expected to lead the council for the next phase of its grassroots development.
Shortly after his victory, the chairman-elect pledged to forgo his statutory salary and allowances throughout his tenure.
Umahi said the decision was driven by his desire to prioritise development and public service over the financial benefits attached to political office.
