Nollywood actress Hilda Dokubo has challenged Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, to make his record in public office the centre of political campaigns rather than repeatedly seeking electoral support
Titiansloaded that reports Dokubo raised the issue while speaking at an All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign gathering in Ebonyi State, where she questioned the minister over his achievements for the people.
The actress argued that politicians should demonstrate what they have accomplished for their constituents instead of making repeated appeals for votes without presenting evidence of their performance.
Directing her remarks at Umahi, she demanded that he identify specific projects and contributions delivered to the people during his time in public office.
“When will these people start campaigning based on their achievements? Dave Umahi, list the things you have done for your people. It’s not every time you people keep talking about votes, votes!” she said.
Dokubo maintained that political engagements should provide an opportunity for officeholders to explain their performance and show how their policies and projects have benefited ordinary Nigerians.
Her comments placed the spotlight on accountability and the importance of evaluating political leaders based on their records rather than their promises or demands for electoral support.
