The national executive members of Anambra Mandate For Good Governance, AMFGG and the Board of Trustees, BoT members of the group last Monday visited the Member representing Njikoka II State Constituency in the Anambra State House of Assembly, Hon. Dr. Jude Akpua (Omekannia N’Abba) to congratulate him on his emergence as a lawmaker as well as the Deputy Majority Leader of the 8th Assembly.
Hon. Akpua before his emergence as a lawmaker was the Coordinator of Anambra Mandate For Good Governance (AMFGG), in Njikoka Local Government Area of Anambra State.
Speaking during the visit, the National President of AMFGG, Chief Emmanuel Ogugua (Okadigbo Aguleri) and the Chairman Board of Trustees (BoT), Chief Cyprian Okereke (Ogbuefituluagwa) praised the legislator for his doggedness and dexterity, describing him as people’s lawmaker.
The duo, while congratulating Hon. Akpua, asked him to continue to make laws and move motions that would bring about developmental change in the society, especially at his immediate Constituency, saying that they would continue to identify with him at all times.
Speaking on what the group stands for, Hon. Ogugua said that it was formed years ago solely to push for good governance and ensure that there was a continuity of people’s oriented policies and programmes that would impact directly on the people, especially at the grassroots levels.
“We worked and made sure that Governor Willie Obiano was re-elected for a second term in office and also ensured that there was a smooth transition from Chief Willie Obiano to the present Governor, Prof. Charles Soludo. We are actually working and contributing towards the progress of the state. We are fully in support of Governor Chukwuma Soludo. He’s doing well and we are solidly behind him.
Chief Ogugua explained that AMFGG would continue to move from strength to strength, saying that they would not relent on their onerous task of commending a working government and would not fail to criticize constructively when necessary.
Interactions, speeches and presentation of gift items to the Lawmaker as well as sumptuous delicacies presented by Hon. Akpua formed the highpoints of the visit.
