THE GROWING CLAMOUR FOR BARR. ABUBAKAR USMAN:
A VISIONARY CALL TO SERVE ANKPA/OLAMABORO/OMALA IN 2027
By Sunny Bename
Across Ankpa, Olamaboro and Omala Federal Constituency, a strong and growing political movement is taking shape—one rooted in hope, in the desire for responsible leadership, and in the belief that the constituency deserves far better than the stagnation and misrepresentation it has endured over the years. At the heart of this clamour is Barrister Abubakar Usman, an enterprising, meek and visionary personality whose name now resonates deeply among those yearning for genuine transformation.
The calls for him to contest the 2027 House of Representatives election under the African Democratic Congress (ADC) have continued to rise in communities, political circles and social platforms. What makes this movement compelling is that it is organic, emerging from the people themselves—youths, women, elders, traditional leaders and professionals—who believe that Barr. Usman embodies the kind of leadership that can change the constituency’s narrative.
In a political environment where noise often replaces substance and where promises frequently evaporate after elections, many see in him a refreshing alternative. Those who know him speak of his humility, sharp intellect and commitment to the welfare of the ordinary person. His calm disposition, combined with a firm sense of purpose, distinguishes him from the conventional political actors who have dominated the landscape for years.
The constituency he is being urged to represent is one blessed with great potential yet consistently underserved. Ankpa, Olamaboro and Omala have long suffered from insufficient federal presence, inadequate infrastructure, limited youth empowerment and the absence of deliberate development initiatives. Many believe the region’s setbacks are closely tied to years of ineffective representation, where leaders prioritized political survival over service, and visibility over tangible results.
This is why the rising chorus for Barr. Usman is both symbolic and significant. It reflects the shifting expectations of the electorate—people who are not merely seeking another politician but a public servant with integrity, empathy and ideas. To the youths, he represents mentorship and opportunity, someone capable of championing education, digital literacy and entrepreneurship. To women, he is approachable and dependable, known for quietly supporting local businesses and humanitarian causes. To traditional and community leaders, he stands out for his respectfulness, problem-solving ability and unifying influence.
Supporters also highlight his alignment with the values of the ADC, a party increasingly identified with discipline, people-centred ideology and transparent internal processes. In their view, the ADC provides him the ideal platform to advance a fresh political vision without the interference of entrenched interests that often hinder meaningful change. They believe the party’s philosophy of integrity and innovation aligns naturally with his personality and aspirations.
Beyond the calls and endorsements, Barr. Usman’s track record offers a glimpse of what he could bring into federal legislature. He has quietly contributed to community development through legal assistance to the vulnerable, educational support for students, empowerment initiatives for youths, and participation in communal projects aimed at improving livelihoods. His approach has never been loud or politically driven; instead, it has been consistent, sincere and impactful, earning him widespread respect across the constituency.
This rising momentum is not just about placing one man in office but about rewriting the region’s story. It is about electing someone who understands that representation must be measured by legislative impact, direct engagement with constituents, and visible improvements in daily living. It is about breaking the cycle of leaders who consider elections the end of accountability rather than the beginning.
As 2027 approaches, the expectations are high, and the hope is clear. The people want a representative who reflects their aspirations, someone capable of providing a stronger voice at the national stage, and someone who brings humility and competence to public service. More than anything, they want a leader who understands that good governance begins with listening, with empathy, and with purposeful action.
For many across Ankpa, Olamaboro and Omala, the message remains consistent: Barrister Abubakar Usman represents a chance for a new beginning. They believe he has the vision to attract development, the character to lead with transparency, and the courage to advocate for the long-neglected needs of the constituency.
The clamour continues to spread, gathering strength each day. And as the clock ticks toward 2027, the call is becoming clearer and louder—that Barr. Abubakar Usman should rise to the moment, accept the people’s mandate, and bring the much-needed transformation to the federal constituency under the banner of the ADC.
