Hon. Donatus Nwankpa, the APC National Welfare Secretary, has expressed doubts about Governor Alex Otti’s chances in the 2027 Abia State governorship election.

While Nwankpa didn’t make a definitive prediction, he questioned Otti’s party affiliation, pointing out that independent candidates don’t contest elections in Abia State.

Nwankpa also highlighted the APC’s growing strength in Abia State, citing the decampment of over 40% of PDP members and others to the APC.

I have never claimed to be a prophet, and I did not see Nostradamus to tell me the secrets of how we can predict the way he did. But let me ask you something, does the governor of Abia State have a political party platform? That is a research I want you to conduct. To that end, independent candidate does not contest election in Abia.

On the side of the APC, we have started bringing ourselves together. What we had was the problem of the opposition, not just at the national level, but at the State level that is our ability to manage our ego, exhibit humility, accept another leadership over us.

That is why a lot of people will keep on struggling, battling, and engaging in ego trip and forgetting the faith of the millions of people behind them.
As it is today, APC is the largest party in Abia State, with the decampment of over 40 per cent of members of PDP and many other parties to APC. Let me ask you, if the governor is performing so well, why is it that many people are not decamping to Labour Party?”
