The members of OUK movement, Abia State under the Chairmanship of Engr Agu Ndukwe Orji met today at the State Office in Umuahia where an appraisal of the just concluded local government tour embarked upon by the State Executive members was extensively discussed.
In his opening remarks, the State Chairman of OUK Movement extolled the members for their dedication and cooperation during the one week long tour which took members to all the seventeen local government areas of Abia state.
The Chairman who conveyed to the members the warm felicitation of the founder of OUK Movement, H.E.Senator Orji Uzor Kalu(MON), the Senator representing Abia North Senatorial zone and also the Chief Whip of the 9thSenate, informed members of State Executive Committee that the Founder of OUK Movement is pleased with their performances so far and encouraged them not to rest on their oars until they get to the promised land.
The State Chairman used the opportunity to mention the numerous road projects embarked upon by the Distinguished Senator in Abia North within his short stay in the hallowed Chamber which triggered the “envy” of members who wished that they have someone like OUK in the Senate in their zones, particularly, Abia Central and Abia South.
However, members pleaded with the Leader and founder of OUK Movement to use his extensive contacts and embark on road grading in the other zones as such kind gesture would attract more accolades to him and enlarge the membership of OUK Movement in their zones.
The Chairman announced the production of 1000 copies of exercise books by OUK who is desirous to set the ball rolling in his avowed determination to ensure that the masses’ welfare is his priority.
The Chairman promised that distribution would commence soonest as the Exco embarks on ward tour and disclosed that some Corporate bodies and individuals have promised to partner with OUK Movement.
The members of the State Executive Committee in one accord, assured the Founder of OUK Movement, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu that they would do everything within their powers to ensure that his aspirations for the formation of the Movement would be actualized and thanked him for finding them worthy to serve in their various capacities at the State level.
Members were thereafter issued with their letters of appointment.
Thereafter, members of OUK Disabled Sports led by the State Chairman, Chinyere Dike Obialor visited the members of the State Exco to express their gratitude to the Leader of OUK Movement whom they described as a man with golden disposition and prayed God to continue to bless him.
The group decried the abandonment of the welfare of members since the exit of OUK as the Chief Executive of Abia State whom they said that they would ever remain grateful to him as the only Chief Executive of Abia State who made their welfare his priority by providing them with a bus and paying all their entitlements which subsequent administrations have hitherto abandoned.
Responding on behalf of the members of the State Exco, the Chairman, Engr. Ndukwe Orji thanked them for the visit and promised to carry them along in the activities of OUK Movement and enjoined them not to see anything in their disability.
