The Odu Oma Club of Nigeria has commended Senator Ned Nwoko and members of the technical committee on the progress made in the campaign for the creation of Anioma State.

The group gave the commendation in a statement on Wednesday, highlighting the significant progress made toward the long-standing goal of establishing Anioma as Nigeria’s 37th state.

In an official message signed by President Mr. Patrick Ogbogu Okenyi, Secretary Mr. Uche Emma Aboh, and Publicity Secretary Dr. CC Nwayalani, the club expressed admiration for the tireless efforts of the senator representing Anioma and the technical committee.

The group also praised all stakeholders who made compelling presentations during the South-South Zonal Public Hearing held in Ikot Ekpene, Akwa Ibom State.

“The renewed call for Anioma state, backed by clear articulation and united voices, is a testament to the resilience and unity of our people,” the statement read in part.

The club offered renewed congratulations to Senator Prince Ned Nwoko, the technical committee, and all individuals who contributed to what it called a “great and noble cause.”
