Residents of Amankalu in Bende local government area of Abia State have expressed heartfelt appreciation to Senator for Abia North, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu over rapid progress on the Amankalu to Abiriba Road junction (Ogidiala) project.
Speaking on behalf of the residents, Chief J. C. Ukoha (Otutemba) described the road project as another people-oriented project facilitated by Senator Kalu.
“Amankalu community and Igbere people extend their heartfelt appreciation to His Excellency, Distinguished Ranking Senator Dr. Orji Uzo Kalu for his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to the development of communities.
“The ongoing Road construction project initiated from Amankalu and connecting to Igbere-Abiriba Road, stands as a testament to his dedication to improving infrastructure and enhancing the lives of our people.
“This vital Constituency Project, currently being asphalted, is not only transforming the landscape of Amankalu community and Abia North but also fostering economic growth, easing transportation and connecting our communities like never before,” he said.
The diaspora-based Ukoha said Senator Kalu’s tireless efforts in prioritising rural development and ensuring quality execution of these projects reflect his deep love for his constituents and resolve to deliver on his promises.
This, he said, has informed their decision to endorse the senator’s return to the Senate in 2027.
“We urge him to see this commendable project through to completion, from start to finish, as we have full confidence in his ability to deliver infrastructure that stands the test of time.
“Amankalu community and Abia North in general stand firmly behind him and we pledge our unwavering support for his continued leadership, including his RETURN TO SENATE come 2027 elections in other words ‘THERE’S NO vACANCY IN ABIA NORTH FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY IN 2027.
“Thank you multiple times Senator Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu ( Ahaejiagamba) for being a beacon of progress and a true servant of the people.
“Your legacy of development will forever resonate in the hearts of Abia North because never have we had a Senator that did one quarter of what OUK have done.”
Ukoha added, “We have decided to nickname you UNCOMMON SENATOR, hence forth you have an additional tittle to your name.
“Thank you uncountable number of times your Excellency Distinguished Senator Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu (Ahaejiagamba, Uncommon Senator)”.
