All Progressives Congress, APC, 2027 governorship aspirant in Benue State, Honorable Terwase Orbunde, has the capacity to win election and run government if given the party’s flag.
His track record shows both political strength and administrative competence.
The former Chief of Staff to the Governor of Benue State is not new to the corridors of power. He has spent years at the center of decision making and understands how the system works, from policy design to execution.
Orbunde’s service cuts across every level of governance. He has served as Chairman of Kwande Local Government Area, represented Kwande Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, worked as Special Adviser to the Senate President, and later as Chief of Staff to the Governor of Benue State.
His political experience is equally solid at the party level. He has served as State Organizing Secretary and Youth Leader of the PDP in Benue State and Acting Director General of Senator George Akume in 1998 who championed the campaign that won a landslide victory for the Governor and other electives positions. Those roles built his grassroots network and deepened his grasp of party structure and mobilization.
The 2027 governorship hopeful comes fully prepared with the political and administrative credentials needed to lead. He is not offering guesswork, but practical solutions to the challenges confronting Benue people today.
In every office he has held, Orbunde has left footprints of excellence. Colleagues and constituents know him for results, discipline, and accountability. He has never been found wanting.
With a proven ability to win elections and the skill to run government, Terwase Orbunde stands ready to deliver effective leadership for Benue State.
