By Francis Udoka Ndimkoha

History was made on Sunday 13th December 2020 as Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative, an accountability advocacy group won laurels at DMoma award nite, which held at Azny Place, Abacha road, GRA, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

It will be recalled that Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative, in just a little over a year of its existence, has blazed the trail and redefined pro-people advocacy, in Nigeria, especially in the Niger Delta, where they have effectively championed the course of development of the region and exposed series of abandoned or poorly executed projects in the region, and attracting the attention of the Federal Government and other relevant agencies to do the needful.

The Citizens Quest, was honoured with two ornamental award pieces, first as a Proactive Group of the year, South-South and South-East and again, as Special recognition for speaking for the masses.

On hand to receive the awards were the National Secretary of Citizens Quest, Mr. Innocent Okpukpo, the National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Francis Udoka Ndimkoha, and Pastor C.J Ndukwe, among Others.

It is noteworthy that Citizens Quest has dared the establishment by taking her advocacy beyond Print and social media, as well as local and International Television, but also made presentations in the Red and Green chambers of the National Assembly, all win the first years of its incorporation.

As a grand icing on the cake, the founder and President of Citizens Quest Chief Obiaruko Christie Ndukwe, was also honoured as Lady of Excellence of the year, South-South and South-East; an award keenly contested with two first ladies of two states in the Southeast and Southsouth.

Nice one
