Resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its area of cross section. If you bend a wire, its length or area of cross section does not change. Hence, the resistance is unaffected.

Answer:

Free electrons in a wire have small value of drift velocity and hence low value of inertia of motion. Due to it, they are able to go around the bends easily. That is why, the electrical resistance is not affected on bending the wire till the area of cross-section remains the same at the bend.
