A pro-community group, the Agidi First Assembly (AFA) has passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of the community's President General, Hon. Ebuka David Onuorah, citing completed infrastructure projects and enhanced security measures in Enugwu-Agidi as evidence.

 

In letter dated October 10, 2025, AFA highlighted the revitalization of the Enugwu-Agidi Secretariat Complex, which now functions as an effective administrative center. The full reconstruction of the Mkpasalaku Bridge, dilapidated for over two decades, is also noted as a major achievement. Additionally, CCTV cameras have been installed in strategic locations across the community to bolster security.

 

The statement credits past leaders, including Okoli, Okam, and Umeano, with establishing foundational infrastructure such as electrification, tarred roads, administrative blocks, a post office, Government Technical College, and Girls Secondary School. It positions Onuorah’s administration as continuing this legacy of development.

 

The AFA also acknowledges Onuorah’s support for indigent residents through social interventions, though details of these programs were not specified.

 

 

Recognizing that transformative leadership often faces criticism, the assembly compares Onuorah to historical figures such as Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr., emphasizing that enduring impact outweighs public opinion.

 

The group expresses alignment with Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s development agenda while attributing local project execution to Onuorah’s leadership.

 

The statement concluded with a call for community unity and youth involvement in promoting positive narratives about Enugwu-Agidi, urging residents to support ongoing initiatives.

 

Independent verification by this reporter, including site visits and interviews with residents and contractors, confirmed the completion of the Secretariat Complex upgrade, the reconstructed Mkpasalaku Bridge, and the operational CCTV network.

 

 

 

Residents attested to Onuorah’s direct role in driving multiple transformational projects, raising questions about the motives of persistent critics.
