Ifedi Okwenna: Promises To Recover, Revive disputed Omasi Farm Settlement

PDP Aspirant in the 2021 Anambra State Governorship election, Dr. Ifedi Okwenna has promised to recover and revive the disputed Omasi Farm settlement, in Ayamelum Local Government, if elected into power. He also promised to provide adequate security in the border towns of the State to ensure that farmers and other investors are not harassed by herdsmen and bandits operating in the areas. Dr. Okwenna made this declaration last Thursday during his official tour of Ayamelum Local Government.

The former Commissioner expressed shock on Government’s neglect of the Local Government, leading to unfortunate collapse of existing infrastructure and non commencement of new ones in the area. Dr. Okwenna recalled that the first project of Peter Obi administration (which he was part of), in 2006, was the construction of Aguleri – Anaku – Omor – Ifite Ogwari, Omasi road, which opened the area to other parts of the State. He noted that many portions of the road has since collapsed making it difficult for the people to access the Local Government. Dr Okwenna promised to make the reconstruction of the road, his first priority when he is elected governor.

Dr Okwenna, promised to fast track the resolution of the intractable Okaa/Omasi land dispute with Enugu State and therefrom transform the vast arable land in the Local Government, into a prime Agricultural belt, establishing in the process, Farm Estates, organised rice milling centres equipped with modern machines, build ranches for lease by cattle farmers and build diary farms.

The highly cerebral and innovative governorship Aspirant also promised to put money into the people’s pockets by building and leasing to the people poultry farm houses, fishery farms providing hybrid fingerĺin, chics, piglets etc, in organised farm estates. This facilities will be serviced with good road networks, security and other infrastructure.

Dr. Okwenna promised to link up Ayamelum with Awka North as part of his Trans Anambra Highway Project, to provide them easy access to Awka capital. The project he further stated will open many rural communities in Anambra State.

The Governorship hopeful further pleaded with the PDP delegates in Ayamelum, to note that he is a “homeboy”, with good track records and that he has shared in their sufferings and challenges and therefore should be entrusted with PDP ticket to ensure that Agu Awka Government house is delivered for the Party.

Thanking Dr. Ifedi Okwenna for coming to visit them, the PDP Chairman in Ayamelum Local Government, Hon Bonny Okoye, expressed surprise on Dr. Okwenna’s good knowledge of the core challenges of Ayamelum Local Government and his wonderful intervention plans. He informed Dr. Okwenna that Ayamelum people will vote for whoever know them and their challenges and who has shown them convincing and workable plans to empower them. He urged Ugwumba Osumenyi, to use his good knowledge of their area and the many friendships he has established in Ayamelum over the years to penetrate and fully take control of delegates in the local Government.

He prayed for God protection of Dr. Okwenna and his team as they move around the State.
