Monarchs Lament 10-yr Darkness, Lack Of Infrastructure In Imo Community by Nobody: 12:09pm On Jul 04, 2015
Six Paramount rulers from Akokwa Clan, Imo State have lamented over ten years darkness the clan had been thrown into and lack of infrastructure especially drinking water in their community.
The royal fathers in collaboration with the Akokwa United Progressive People’s Assembly have appealed to their representative in the House of Representative, Hon. Austine Chukwukere to come to their rescue.
Making the passionate appeal in Abuja when they visited the lawmaker to congratulate him on his election victory and his inauguration as a member of the 8th National Assembly, they said good drinking water had remained a problem and appealed for his intervention in the provision of potable water.
They lamented that their clan had been in darkness in the last ten years as a result of immense neglect, stressing that the development had crippled economic activities in the area and pleaded for restoration of electricity supply.
They also pleaded for appointment of their qualified sons and daughters into government establishments and parastatals.
President General of Akokwa United Progressive People’s Assembly, Chief P.N. Ngoka who delivered the requests of the community to Chukwukere in his office, further asked for the establishment of tertiary institutions or faculties in their community.
Accompanied by the Secretary of the assembly P.E. Ononuju and the Chairman, Political Committee, Chief Stanley Obidiegwu, the community further pleaded for women and youth empowerment so as to improve their standard of living.
They told the lawmaker to use his connections to attract Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, roads, solar streetlight and skill acquisition centre to the area.
Responding, Rep Chukwukere said that Akokwa Federal Constituency was the most marginalised constituency in the country and promised to liaise with Governor Rochas Okorocha to attract more development to the community.
He said that the State governor was committed to transforming all nooks and crannies of the state and that he would give the needed support and quality representation to the people so that they will enjoy the dividends of democracy.
