February 14, (THEWILL) — Commissioner for Agriculture and Food Security, Dr Benjamin Ashaver, has called on people of Ukum Local Government to massively reciprocate the developmental gestures of Governor Hyacinth Alia by re-electing him in the 2027 general election.
The Commissioner, who was inspecting the ongoing Uva Gigya Mega Bridge in Tyuluv council ward, a critical infrastructure linking three wards and unlocking economic and social activities across the Ukum axis.
According to him, such projects are a clear symbol of Governor Alia’s commitment to grassroots development and inclusive governance, insisting that every opportunity entrusted to him has always translated into visible and lasting impact for the people in the area.
“Governance must be judged by outcomes, not promises, and excuses. Let me charge the youths and the entire electorate of Ukum to demand verifiable scorecards from anyone seeking their political support”, Chief Ashaver declared.
He emphasised that the Uva Gigya Mega bridge is being executed under the Rural Access and Agricultural Marketing Project (RAAMP), an agency under the Ministry of Agriculture, noting that it reflects how purposeful leadership and effective use of opportunity can directly improve the lives of the people.
The Agriculture Commissioner maintained that Governor Alia has shown uncommon generosity to Ukum people through sustained investments and people-oriented policies, insisting that such leadership deserves loyalty and continuity.
He stressed that the re-election of Governor Alia is sacrosanct and non-negotiable, urging Ukum people to remain politically conscious, reject distractions, and stand firmly with a leader whose scorecard is visible, measurable, and undeniable.
