By: Dr.Isaac Nkole.

Umuahia 

 This article is a conglomeration of who Sen. Mao Ohuabunwa is as an intelligent, visionary / radical politician, his bills and motions as a senator, his all-round development strides or achievements especially to his people in Abia North Senatorial District during his time as a senator in the 8th Assembly of the Nigerian Senate.

1. INTRODUCTION: 

Few aspects of public life are scrutinized and debated as intensely as leadership. It is crucial to the welfare of nations, the survival of political parties, and public corporations. And, as this volume demonstrates, political leadership is both a complex and elusive quality. A very distinguished quality in the society. 

It is on record that an effective leader is someone who knows "when to lead, when to follow, and when to get out of the way" (the phrase is attributed to the American revolutionary Thomas Paine). In this view, effective leaders do much more than give orders. They create a shared vision for the future and viable strategic plans for the present. They negotiate ways to achieve what is needed while also listening to what is wanted. They incorporate individuals and groups into processes of making decisions and enacting policies for the benefit of all. In the view of a former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, “A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don’t necessarily want to go, but ought to be.” This is where Distinguished Sen. Dr. Mao Arukwe Ohuabunwa comes in. An effective leader who has and will always put smiles in the faces of his people before anything. It is proven  that in Abia North Senatorial District, Sen. Mao  Ohuabunwa have strived  in Strategic Wealth creation projects and provision of jobs for the people; Meaningful peace building platforms aimed at political and social harmony; Agricultural reforms and accelerated industrialization; Relevant Health and Education policies, etc.

2. WHO IS DISTINGUISHED SEN. DR. MAO ARUKWE OHUABUNWA?

Mao Arukwe Ohuabunwa was born in Port Harcourt, Rivers State on 24 May 1957 to parents who were business people at Atani a town in Arochukwu local government area of Abia State. He attended Orevo State School where he completed his primary education and Enitona High School, Borokiri where he completed his senior school education. He went on to obtain an HND and B.Tech in Applied Biology and Microbiology respectively from Rivers State University of Science and Technology. He also went on to attend Enugu State University of Science and Technology where he obtained his PGD and M.Sc certificates in Public Administration and Human Resources Management respectively.

In 1998, having made a huge success in his business over the years he then ventured into politics, Senator Mao ran for a seat in the Nigerian Federal House of Representatives under the umbrella of the United Nigeria Congress Party and won, before the process was truncated. (Wikipedia, 2022)

He became the first person to represent both Arochukwu/Ohafia constituencies when he yet again contested and won in the 1999 elections this time under the umbrella of the People's Democratic Party and was subsequently elected the Deputy Leader of the House of Representatives. He went on to contest for a seat to represent Abia North in the Nigeria Senate in the 2007 general elections under the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and lost, but undeterred he went ahead and contested in the 2015 general election which he won and also won March 6, 2016 re-run after the Appeal Court annulled his earlier victory. (Wikipedia, 2022)

Mao was defeated in the 2019 Nigerian General Elections, losing the seat to Chief Orji Uzor Kalu. He wasn’t discouraged as he had a burning desire to save his people of Abia North from their present predicament. He is currently contesting for a seat to represent Abia North senatorial district during the Nigeria General Election next year.

4: CONCLUTION:

Nigeria as a whole has been blessed with both mineral and human resources but have over the years lacked competent, visionary and intelligent leaders that will harmonize these resources for the actualization of this country’s advancement. In concordance to this assertion, Senator Mao Ohuabunwa stated that “the current situation is not something that should happen to a country that is blessed like Nigeria. We need a leader with a vision and intellectual capacity to move the country forward and not a leader that will take one step forward and three steps backward like we are seeing right now.” With his records, it is obvious Sen. Mao has these unique qualities and can be able to exhibit or put them to use for the all-round advancement of Abia North, Abia State and Nigeria at large.
