WARRI, DELTA STATE — With few weeks to the 2027 general elections, frontline community leader and environmental advocate, Chief (Comrade) Mulade Blessing Sheriff, PhD, has formally declared his intention to contest for the Warri Federal Constituency seat in the Federal House of Representatives ahead of the 2027 general elections under the banner of the National Democratic Party (NDP).
In an official campaign declaration address released to constituents, Chief Mulade outlined a vision anchored on unity, inclusive growth, and robust legislative advocacy, calling on the people to look past conventional political rhetoric and demand accountable leadership.
A Call for Purposeful Governance:
Addressing the electorate across Warri South, Warri North, and Warri South-West, the NDP candidate stressed that the constituency has long endured inadequate representation and deserves a decisive voice in the National Assembly.
“Our people deserve purposeful representation. Our communities deserve development. Our youths deserve opportunities, and our voice deserves to be heard at the National Assembly,” Mulade stated.
“The time has come to look beyond political promises and embrace a vision built on hope, unity, commitment, and effective representation.”
He maintained that his political aspiration transcends personal ambition, presenting his candidacy as a movement to bridge longstanding divides and foster collective prosperity across all ethnic groups in the oil-rich federal constituency.
Core Priorities of the 2027 Mandate: Chief Mulade underscored several key focal points central to his legislative blueprint:
Championing GrassrootsDevelopment: Mobilizing federal attention and capital investments toward critical infrastructural deficits across riverine and urban settlements.
Empowering the Youth: Expanding vocational, educational, and economic opportunities to empower young people and curb unemployment. Equitable Inclusion: Ensuring that the unique concerns of Warri South, Warri North, and Warri South-West receive fair and vocal attention on the floor of the green chamber.
Accountability and Service: Promoting an ethos of “service over selfishness, unity over division, and hope over despair.”
A New Direction for Warri: Urging voters to mobilize behind the National Democratic Party (NDP) and its symbol, the lantern—representing “The Light of Hope”—Chief Mulade expressed optimism that the constituency can reclaim its prominence through progressive leadership.
“Every community counts, every voice matters, and every constituency deserves quality representation,” he affirmed. “The choice is ours. Let us stand together; let us believe again that Warri can be great.”
