In a heartfelt display of community commitment, Amb. Terry Igiebor, a prominent son of Orhionmwon, has empowered 150 youths and women from the 11 ward in the local government with a grant of N50,000 each. This initiative, inspired by the legacy of Amb. Chief Emmanuel Igiebor, Amb. Terry’s late father, aims to ignite entrepreneurial spirit and support the economic growth of the people.
Addressing the empowerment beneficiaries, Amb. Terry Igiebor spoke passionately about his deep connection to Orhionmwon and the importance of investing in the community’s future. “Our youths and women are the backbone of our communitiea, and with this grant, I hope to give you a stepping stone to grow, succeed, and bring back prosperity to Orhionmwon,” he said.
Emphasizing the pivotal nature of the upcoming Edo State Governorship Election, Amb. Igiebor urged the people of Orhionmwon to rally behind the APC candidates, Senator Monday Okpebholo for Governor and Rt. Hon. Dennis Idahosa for Deputy Governor. He highlighted Rt. Hon. Idahosa’s local roots, stating, “His mother hails from Ugboko here in Orhionmwon, and we must seize this golden opportunity to have one of our own in the government.”
Amb. Igiebor expressed confidence that with Rt. Hon. Idahosa as Deputy Governor, Orhionmwon would receive its fair share of the dividends of good governance, including better infrastructure, improved education, more opportunities for the youth, and greater empowerment for women.
The empowerment event was attended by APC stalwarts, including Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu and APC Deputy Governorship candidate Rt. Hon. Dennis Idahosa, who commended Amb. Igiebor’s initiative and reiterated the party’s commitment to the prosperity of Orhionmwon under the leadership of Senator Monday Okpebholo as Governor.
