Rep. Sam Onuigbo Greets Constituents At New Year, Urges Them To Hold Politicians Accountable

Member representing Ikwuano/Umuahia North/South federal constituency, Honourable Sam Onuigbo has congratulated his constituents as the world ushers in New Year, wishing them a prosperous and exciting 2022.

While remarking that this year is significant especially as it ushers in the process of electing leaders, he urged them to be intentional on the path of progressive and sustainable development.

In a new year message on Saturday, the federal lawmaker also called on the people of Ikwuano/Umuahia federal constituency to learn to hold leaders accountable without emotional or primordial considerations, insisting that it is an onerous duty that must be performed for the progress of the state and country at large.

“As a people, politically, this year will also be very significant as we have a chance to begin again the process of electing leaders who will most likely represent our last chance to build on the process of ensuring that this decade is the decade when we finally and firmly place our feet on the path to progressive and sustainable development. We must be aware of this responsibility and embrace the year with this in mind. It is our collective responsibility as a people.

“It is also my desire that this is the year when we begin to objectively hold our leaders accountable, setting aside emotional attachments, primordial sentiments, and selfish reasons. We owe this to ourselves and to posterity. May we not be found wanting in this” he urged.

While cautioning on deliberate plans to save the environment, Rep. Onuigbo assured that as a representative of the people, he will continue to empower his constituents economically, provide health care, electricity, road and enhance the process of learning as a way of improving the lives of the people.

“More and more scientific evidences have recently underscored the fact that this decade offers humanity with the last chance to effectively reverse the apocalyptic impacts of climate change and save the future for our children. In 2022, we must collectively work as a global village to translate theories into actions. Thankfully, Nigeria now has a Climate Change Act due to our efforts. We must build on that.

“As a representative of the great people of Ikwuano/Umuahia North/South Federal Constituency, I will not relent in my style of representation which is framed by the EAR ideology(Effectiveness, Accessibility, and Responsiveness). In that vein then, we will do more in the areas of trainings on livelihood development skills and empowerment for my constituents, healthcare, provision of electricity, road construction, education(scholarships and construction of school blocks) provision of employment, advocating for the good of the people of our great constituency at the National Assembly, and many more.

“2022 is loaded with lots of promises. May God grant us the good health and peace, to reach our goals” he concluded.
