Abians have been urged to actively key into government programmes, own them as well take them seriously. The commissioner for finance, Mr. Obinna Oriaku stated this during a town hall meeting with the people of Mbutu Ukwu ancient Kingdom in Isialangwa south LGA. The commissioner noted that the show of apathy by the people of south east on government businesses induces the elusion in some government benefits on the people that could have ordinarily accrued to them.
Hon. Obinna Oriaku who was represented by chief Orji Oriaku used the occasion to distribute over 400 bags of fertilizer in this farming season to the people of Mbutu Ukwu political bloc which comprises of ward 3 and 4 in Isialangwa South LGA, called on the people to go and register and get their permanent voters’ cards (PVC) to be eligible to contribute their quoter in the shaping of the Nigerian political history, come 2019.
The fertilizers which were distributed to the different polling units were shared among those who had registered for PVCs so as to encourage others to register and benefit from the recurrent programme of the commissioner in subsequent batches.
Reacting, Hon. Chief Demian Ozurumba (Toto) of the Onuochi foundation and erstwhile House of Representatives member for Isialangwa North and South federal constituency called on the people to use this extension of the registration exercise to resister and have their PVCs which he described as their weapon to defend their territory.
He noted that the unamenable exhibition of some persons in the south east region of the nation on programmes like census exercise and PVC registration affects what accrues to the zone on the national budget.
Contributing, Hon. Chidi Eñeogwe thanked the Governor for appreciating their people by building two of their important roads including the Umuocheala road and thanked the Commissioner for providing the farmers the farms input for improved yield this farming season.
Some persons that attended the meeting includes Chief Chidi Nwoha, Deputy leader, Isialangwa legislative council, Prince Joseph Williams, PDP Chairman, Isisalangwa south LGA among many others
