Loveth Izeko: PDP Councilorship Candidate Honoured as Leading African Woman in Abuja
Abuja, Nigeria – The political trajectory of Honourable Ambassador Loveth Izeko, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Councilorship candidate for City Center Ward, AMAC, received a powerful boost as she was honoured as the Leading African Woman at the prestigious Focus Africa Business Summit held in Abuja.
The summit, themed “Expanding Access to Nigeria-Africa Markets to Enhance Sustainable Economic Development,” attracted policymakers, captains of industry, and thought leaders from across Africa, the United Kingdom, Ghana, and the United States. Amidst this constellation of visionaries, Hon. Izeko’s recognition became a moment of symbolism: a woman’s voice rising with clarity in the often male-dominated corridors of politics, and as the only female councilorship candidate among the 62 wards of AMAC.
In her remarks, Hon. Izeko lauded the organizers for finding her worthy of the honour and pledged to continue upholding ethical leadership values while fostering business collaboration. “This recognition strengthens my resolve. I will continue to lead the voice of humanity—empowering women, inspiring youth, and promoting ethical leadership as we progress Africa’s development,” she said.
Her recognition reflects her proven record as former Director of Business Development at AMAC Investment and Business Development, where she championed initiatives that strengthened enterprise growth and sustainability. She emphasized that youth empowerment will remain her top priority if elected, promising programs in skills acquisition, vocational training, digital innovation, and start-up support to ensure that young people in City Center Ward not only seek jobs but create opportunities.
Addressing political realities, she dismissed claims that the PDP has lost structure in AMAC, declaring with confidence: “I am going to win. PDP is not dead—the structure is intact.” She called on her supporters, both male and female, to rally behind her as February’s FCT elections draw near.
More than a politician, Hon. Loveth Izeko is described by supporters as a servant of humanity—passionate about service, committed to ethical leadership, and determined to give City Center Ward a new model of responsive and people-centered governance.
Her emergence as Leading African Woman is not just a personal triumph but a political statement: that women can lead, inspire, and transform grassroots governance in Nigeria.
In the 62 wards of AMAC, Hon. Loveth stands out as the only female councilorship candidate, a reality that elevates her candidacy into a symbol of gender inclusion and political courage. Her recognition at the Focus Africa Summit resonated as more than a personal honour—it became a continental affirmation that women’s voices must not only be heard but trusted with mandates of leadership.
A Vision Rooted in Youth and Enterprise
At the heart of her candidacy lies an unshakeable commitment to youth empowerment. She has pledged to champion skills acquisition, vocational training, digital literacy, and start-up support, ensuring that young people in City Center Ward are not just employable but entrepreneurial.
“The labour market is crowded by our youths, and my vision is to equip them with the tools to not just seek jobs but to create opportunities for themselves and others,” she said, stressing her plan to introduce structured empowerment programs that merge digital technology with local enterprise.
Reinforcing PDP’s Grassroots Strength
Hon. Izeko has also boldly rejected the narrative of a weakened PDP in the FCT. With confidence rooted in grassroots support, she declared: “I am going to win. PDP is not dead—the structure is intact.” Her campaign strategy is built on inclusivity, drawing men and women, youth and elders alike, into a coalition of progress.
Ethical Leadership as Her Guiding Compass
While receiving her continental award, she lauded the organizers for finding her worthy and pledged to uphold ethical leadership standards. “This recognition strengthens my resolve. I will continue to lead the voice in humanity—empowering women, inspiring youth, and upholding the highest standards of ethical leadership as we progress Africa’s development,” she affirmed.
Passion for Service to Humanity
More than a politician, Hon. Izeko describes herself as a servant of humanity. Her track record in development circles, her advocacy for business sustainability, and her insistence on building inclusive structures for women and youth combine into a candidacy that promises not just representation but transformation for City Center Ward.
The Road to February

Her journey reflects the blend of experience and vision required to uplift AMAC at the ward level while setting a new standard for councilorship across the FCT.
In her words: “I am passionate about service to humanity. I am ready to bring my expertise, my experience, and my heart for the people to City Center Ward. Together, we will build a community where every youth, every woman, and every family has the chance to thrive.”
