Rep Chinedu Ogah
By CHARLES IWUOHA
In his usual generous life, the member representing Ezza South/Ikwo Federal Constituency in the green chamber, Hon. Chinedu Ogah, has embarked again, on charitable services to the indigent people in Ebonyi State to mark his 46th birthday anniversary.
Ogah in his big-hearted services, on Tuesday, put in more life-saving flavours in his humanitarian services as he toured all the quarters lived by the downtrodden, reaching the sick and the poor ones by giving them succour and a message of hope, to commemorate his 46th birthday anniversary holding on Monday, 2nd July, 2022 in Ebonyi State.
The Federal Lawmaker, who was accompanied by his massive admirers and supporters, visited the centre of the menial job seekers, popularly known as Okpoku-Ndu-Oru, opposite Pa Ngele Oruta Township Stadium, Abakaliki, where he distributed food, cash and other gifts to them.
The lawmaker also visited Old People’s Home, Orphanage Home, beggars’ corner opposite St. Theresa’s Cathedral, all in Abakaliki town and Alex Ekwueme Federal Teaching, Abakaliki where he doled millions of naira with different items to the indigent patients to clear their hospital bills, before proceeding to Abakaliki and Afikpo Correctional Centres to offer gifts and message of hope to the inmates.
Recall that Ogah has rolled out a six-day program to mark his birthday anniversary this year, pointers among them, are to empower his constituents and commission some of his newly executed projects within his constituency.
Interacting with journalists, some of the beneficiaries including Cecilia Igwe, Chinedu Nwibo, Ngozi Mbam, among others applauded Ogah’s magnanimous life, especially this year, people in their different homes have been lamenting harsh experiences coming after the risen cost of the food commodities in the state.
They described Ogah as the friend of the underprivileged people, who has used his office to touch humanity in mega styles.
“This has been the normal life of Comrade Chinedu Ogah since he assumed office as a lawmaker at the National Assembly, even when he served as the National President of Ebonyi youths under former Governor Martins Elechi’s administration,” a digger, Mr Chinedu Nwibo, said.
It was gathered that other lined-up activities in preparation for the birthday anniversary included free dispensing of PMS (Fuel) for motor drivers, tricycle operators, motorcyclists (Okada riders) and breakfast by the lawmaker with them in Abakaliki and Ohatekwe Primary School Field, Ikwo LGA on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively.
These lined-up activities were prior to the grand finale of the birth anniversary of the Green Chambers Lawmaker and would be followed by the inauguration of the constituency projects, empowerment of the constituents, and distribution of the constituents, among others.
