In the race for the chairmanship of Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area, one candidate stands out for his exemplary credentials and deep-rooted commitment to the community. Comrade chinedu Okoro, a Cambridge-trained public administrator and professional banker, has pledged to bring peace, security, and socio-economic development to the people of Uzo-Uwani if elected.
Comr. Oeffo's philanthropic efforts have long extended beyond Uzo-Uwani, touching lives in Igbo Etiti and Nsukka LGAs. His extensive contributions to these areas showcase his dedication to the betterment of society, earning him a reputation as a benefactor whose impact knows no bounds.

In his interactive session with the youths on August 1, 2024, Comrade chinedu Okoro passionately recounted his personal connection to Uzo-Uwani. Raised as an active farmer involved in rice cultivation, hunting, and other agricultural activities, he expressed deep concern over the current state of insecurity affecting the region.

"I was brought up here in Uzo-Uwani, and my business was rice farming as I grew older. Farming is our source of livelihood and business. It is therefore disheartening that our youths and parents are being driven away from their farms. Even non-farmers are afraid to settle here. From a fast-developing community, Uzo-Uwani is facing retrogression in all facets of socio-economic development," he lamented.

With clear vision for the future, Comr Okoro has made a bold promise to restore peace and security in Uzo-Uwani farmlands within six months of his election. His game plan includes the innovative deployment of surveillance technology to monitor and respond to suspicious activities.

"Information technology is breaking down barriers and enhancing lifestyles. Therefore, as an immediate action once I assume office, we will procure and install spy cameras across farmlands to monitor activities and ensure immediate responses to any suspicious movements," he announced.

He highlighted the successful implementation of similar technological interventions in Kebbi and Katsina States, affirming that such measures are more effective than traditional security methods.

Chinedu Okoro's extensive experience and established relationships with security agencies nationwide position him uniquely to implement long-term, sustainable security solutions. He confidently stated, "Having grown up here, I have become well-acquainted with the tactics employed by bandits. I am confident that peace and security would return to Uzo-Uwani through a combination of strategic interventions and innovative technological deployment."

Understanding the sensitivity of security matters, Comr Chinedu Okoro emphasized the importance of discretion. He assured the community that his strategic plans would be revealed once he assumed office, ensuring that sensitive information was protected.

With his impressive educational background, professional experience, and deep-rooted connection to Uzo-Uwani, Comrade Chinedu Okoro emerges as the ideal candidate for the chairmanship of Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area. His commitment to restoring peace and security, coupled with his innovative approach and philanthropic spirit, make him the right choice to lead the community toward a brighter, more secure future.
