Abia PDP Backs Women Participation as Media Professional Declares Interest in Assembly Seat

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Abia State has reiterated its commitment to promoting women’s participation in politics, as Anastasis Uchenna officially picked her expression of interest and nomination forms to contest for the Aba Central State Constituency seat.

Uchenna, a media professional with Magic FM Aba, is seeking to represent the people of Aba Central in the Abia State House of Assembly under the PDP platform.

Party stakeholders described her move as a reflection of the PDP’s ongoing efforts to create opportunities for women and young people to actively participate in governance and decision-making processes.

According to party sources, the PDP remains committed to fostering inclusiveness by encouraging capable individuals, particularly women and youths, to step forward and contribute to shaping the political and developmental future of Abia State.

The development underscores growing calls for increased female representation in elective positions, as political parties continue to open their structures to more diverse participation ahead of future elections.
