City Councilor
Westminster, Colorado

Obi Ezeadi is a force of authentic, transformative leadership in his community. A loving father and devoted husband, Obi's roots as a first-generation American shape his relentless dedication to serving the people.

Serving as a City Councilor for Westminster, Obi didn't just break barriers as the second Black councilor in 110 years; he also garnered the highest number of votes ever recorded for a city councilor in the city's history. But his true impact is in his record of transformative change such as approval of a new water treatment plant, ensuring clean drinking water for generations to come. Obi passed laws that promoted economic growth and he spearheaded the largest-ever investment in road infrastructure, as well as housing, and behavioral health services for firefighters.
