Indigenes of Anioma resident in Abuja have passed a vote of confidence in Senator Ned Munir Nwoko for outstanding representation at the National Assembly.
This was the highlight of an interactive session with Senator Nwoko representing Delta North senatorial district,held at the weekend in Abuja.

The event,attracted over a thousand Anioma sons and daughters, including serving and retired civil servants, as well as Anioma President Generals based in Federal capital territory

In a address,Senator Nwoko expressed gratitude for the indigenes’ support and said their presence signified a positive step towards realizing his vision for the people of Anioma.

The lawmaker said he convened the interactive session to unite all Anioma people in Abuja and its environs under one umbrella and inform them about his duties in the Senate and his responsibilities to them as their Senator.

He noted that it was also aimed to encourage them to share information about budget placements,capacity-building initiatives, job opportunities, training programs, and career development within established agencies and ministries,to enable him facilitate access to opportunities for Anioma constituents.

Senator Nwoko also renewed his call for the creation of Anioma state and stressed the importance over regional classifications.

“Whether Anioma is South-South or South-East should not be the focus. What’s most important to discuss is that Anioma is poised to become a highly significant and viable state. We already have six out of nine local government areas producing oil and gas. In addition, Anioma boasts numerous talented and important individuals. Despite current challenges, Emefiele will continue to be a prominent figure in Anioma. We also have people like Tony Elumelu, Jim Ovia, and other notable personalities. We have all the talents we need to excel in all areas, be it sports or academics.

“The Ekwumekwu war exemplifies the strength and resilience of the Aniomas. Historically, we fought the Europeans to preserve our identity and autonomy. We are continuing the legacy of our forefathers, and I assure you that I am dedicated to this cause.

“You must know what we are doing in the National Assembly.You need to understand my duties and the services I owe you. Whether it’s unjust job termination, health issues, or community matters, you have someone in the Federal Government to attend to your needs and concerns,” Senator Nwoko said

Earlier, Chief Godfrey Odogwu, the President General of Asaba Development Union, Abuja branch, emphasised that the creation of Anioma state is long overdue.

Patrick Obi, Branch President of Ogwashi-Uku Development Association, leading the vote of confidence in Senator Ned Nwoko stated, “We have been assured that we have a Senator. Doors have never been this open for us.”
