The member representing Ogbaru Federal Constituency and Chairman of the House Committee on Renewable Energy, Hon. Victor Afam Ogene, has fulfilled part of his earlier pledge to the Okpoko Community Residents Landlord Association with the donation of 100 quality plastic chairs out of the 200 promised to the group.

He further assured residents that additional development projects and empowerment programmes would continue under Hon. Ogene’s representation.
In response, the Chairman of the Okpoko Community Residents Landlord Association, Chief Iyke Okweji, expressed appreciation for the gesture, noting that the lawmaker had consistently responded to the needs of the community.
