From Mba Nnenna- Abakaliki
The Member representing Ikwo/Ezza South Federal Constituency, Rt. Hon. (Comrade) Chinedu Ogah, has reiterated his commitment towards improving Education in Ebonyi state.
Ogah made this known during his visit to Ndufu Amagu community, in Ikwo local government area, Ebonyi state.
Ogah who described the Governor of the state as “a man of peace” owing to the peace/harmony present in different communities in Ebonyi State, stated that he will not relent in his efforts to his constituency, by contributing his quota to the success story of Gov. Nwifuru’s administration.
He said, “In support of the good administration of the Governor of Ebonyi state, and to encourage Education I will be releasing the sum of 5million naira for the construction of Holy Hill Community School.”
The Rep Member who is also Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Reformatory Institutions, pointed out that the Governor has supported him in various aspects of life, adding that he will reciprocate this goodwill by extending it to the rural areas.
He however expressed concern over the poor attitude of some members of the community who allow themselves to be used for selfish interest by individuals from the community to cause division/disunity, and urged them to live as one family and shun disunity.
“We are one indivisible family, and nobody has the audacity to bring division and disunity among us,” he said.
“If anyone stops the children from going to school, I’ll inform the Governor that those causing the crisis are barricading the future of the children. Those individuals will be charged for depriving the children of their fundamental human rights and prosecuted accordingly,” he stated.
He equally commended the Governor for the peace and harmony existing along the various boundary lines that cut across the State.
Ogah further warned those causing misunderstanding and agitating for the creation of a new village to follow due process and stop employing violent measures, which could lead to further chaos and distraction to the administration of the Governor of Ebonyi State.
