Senator Ned Nwoko has set out his case for a second term, pointing to projects in power, water, education and health across Delta North and promising to "deepen impact" if re-elected in 2027.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Delta North senator said "true representation is not defined by rhetoric, but by the measurable improvement in the lives of our people," listing solar streetlights, transformers, boreholes and scholarships among his achievements since taking office.
Nwoko said his approach had been "focused and deliberate," citing the installation of solar-powered streetlights to improve security and local commerce, and the provision of transformers to restore electricity in several communities.
On water and environment, he pointed to solar boreholes for clean water and drainage works to curb flooding and erosion damage to homes and farmland.
Education, he said, "remains central" to his plan, saying his office has funded the construction and renovation of classroom blocks, backed 150 scholarships across Delta North, and paid for 1,500 students to sit the 2026 JAMB exams.
A further 150 students are on scholarship at the Sports University, with 500 more on a nationwide scheme.
Healthcare initiatives included medical outreaches across all nine local government areas, offering free consultations and drugs, alongside renovation of primary health centres.

Nwoko revealed he had also intensified malaria elimination efforts through "preventive campaigns, community sensitisation, and improved access to treatment."
A bill to create a dedicated Malaria Elimination Agency is awaiting its third reading in the National Assembly, he added.
On agriculture, he listed the provision of tractors, support for fish farming and livestock, and investment in cassava processing to boost food security.
He also cited empowerment schemes for women, youths and small businesses, covering entrepreneurship, agriculture and digital skills, as well as new markets and "ultra modern town halls" for civic engagement.
"Development must be holistic, people centred, and enduring," Nwoko said.
Looking to 2027, he pledged to "expand ongoing initiatives, introduce new ones where necessary, and ensure that development reaches every ward, every community, and every household across Delta North."
"Our journey is one of continuity, stability, and steady progress. The commitment remains firm. The work continues," he said.
