Chief Sheriff Blessing Mulade, the National Democratic Party (NDP) candidate for Warri Federal Constituency in the 2027 general elections, has paid a consultation visit to the Olu of Warri, His Royal Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse III, seeking the monarch’s royal blessings and support for his political aspiration.
Mulade, who is the Ibesorimowei of Gbaramatu Kingdom and a UN Peace Ambassador, said his ambition to represent the people of Warri Federal Constituency at the National Assembly was driven by his commitment to promoting development, unity and peaceful coexistence across the constituency.
Speaking during the visit, the NDP candidate pledged to pursue initiatives aimed at accelerating economic development and infrastructure renewal in the area if elected.
Among his priorities, he identified the revival and completion of the abandoned Escravos Free Trade Zone project and efforts towards the resuscitation of the Koko Seaport, describing both projects as important to the economic prospects of the region.
Mulade also pledged to promote stronger peaceful relations among the Ijaw, Urhobo and Itsekiri communities across the Warri metropolis, stressing that unity, mutual respect and cooperation among the various ethnic groups remain important to sustainable development.
He appealed to voters across Warri South, Warri South-West and Warri North Local Government Areas to support his candidacy, assuring them of his commitment to representing their interests and advancing development within the constituency.
