He said representation should not be limited to the chambers of the State House of Assembly but should reflect the needs, concerns and aspirations of the people at the grassroots.
Receiving the candidate, the President-General of Uwheru Kingdom, Wilson Umukoro Oghenerukewe, commended him for consulting the kingdom’s leadership as he pursues the House of Assembly seat.
Oghenerukewe encouraged Umukoro to remain focused and disciplined while pursuing his political ambition.
He also offered prayers for the candidate, asking God to guide him and grant him success in the election.
The President-General expressed goodwill towards Umukoro and urged him to remain committed to the people throughout his political journey.
At a separate meeting, the Youth President of Uwheru Kingdom, Comrade Otuogba Mudiaga, welcomed the NDP candidate and encouraged him to remain steadfast in his pursuit of the constituency’s mandate.
Mudiaga said Umukoro’s decision to consult community stakeholders was encouraging, particularly because young people needed political representatives who understood their concerns and could advocate for opportunities that would improve their future.
He expressed hope that Umukoro’s aspiration, if successful, would translate into meaningful representation and greater attention to issues affecting youths in the constituency.
Mudiaga also prayed for the candidate, seeking divine favour and success at the polls while urging him to remain committed to the people and the principles behind his political ambition.
The consultations ended with expressions of goodwill and assurances of support as Umukoro continues his engagement with stakeholders, community leaders and residents across Ughelli North Constituency II.
