Godswill Agu Egbe (INEC: EGBE GODSWILL AGU; styled Dr) is the All Progressives Congress (APC) deputy governorship candidate in Abia State, running mate to Eric Opah, for the election of 6 February 2027 (INEC final list, 10 October 2026). INEC lists him as a 57-year-old man. Opah presented him to the party at the APC secretariat in Umuahia on 5 October 2026, saying he had chosen carefully because running mates often clash with their principals. He is from Isuikwuato. A supportive profile in Independent (18 September 2026) describes a 27-year career in development finance and agribusiness: project and general manager at BUA International (2017-2024) on cotton and textile value chains, a finance consultant on the USAID-funded FinGAP programme in Ghana, senior roles at pension firms, and chairman of several companies including Sane-Konsult International. It credits him with a PhD in Financial Mathematics, two master's degrees and a BSc (Hons) in Statistics. These details come from that one piece and are not independently confirmed; INEC's qualification column for him lists only school certificates. He told Vanguard (6 October 2026) that he entered politics early, served as President-General of his community and supported the ANPP and the CPC before the APC.

INEC final list of candidates (Governorship, Abia State), published 2026-10-10 — SN 4; INEC name: EGBE GODSWILL AGU; age 57; male; qualification (as declared to INEC): FIRST SCHOOL LEAVING CERTIFICATE SSCE; governorship candidate: Opah Eric Chinemeucheya · Named by APC governorship candidate Eric Opah (who won the 21 May 2026 primary) and presented to the party at the APC state secretariat in Umuahia on Monday 5 October 2026 (Punch, Vanguard); Opah said he took his time because running mates and deputies often clash with their principals. A supportive Independent profile (18 September 2026) shows the pair already consulting stakeholders in Umunneochi as candidate and running mate before that, in a visit that predates the August opening of campaigning (date not given). INEC's final list (10 October 2026) carries him.
