As the clock ticks towards the start of a new year, 2025, a clarion call has been sounded for the Ukwuani nation to come together in a spirit of cooperation and collective effort to drive meaningful growth and development in the region.
This rallying cry is aimed at mobilizing individuals, communities, and leaders to pool their resources, expertise, and energies towards creating a brighter future for Ukwuani by working together to harness its vast potential and tackle the challenges that have hindered progress in the past.

Ossai stresses the importance of constructive criticism and providing alternatives to foster mutual benefit among Ndokwa/Ukwuani extractions.
He urged individuals to list their expectations for the new year, focusing on local critical needs and achievable goals, tasking the community members to point out ways to achieve these goals, and to be a source of information for leaders.
According to him, some areas of focus were improving access to quality education and infrastructural development, enhancing healthcare services and facilities as well as developing roads.
Other areas were critical economic empowerment, creating job opportunities and supporting local businesses.
He explained that through working together and setting a clear agenda, the community can make significant progress towards achieving growth and development in 2025.
Ossai, who is also chairman, Organized Ndokwa Efforts appealed to the executives of Ndokwa Neku Union (NNU) to advance Ukwuani course by demanding achievable projects from the political elites for their wards.
“May i use this medium, with the leave of NNU BOT and EXCO, ask for the setting of 2025 AGENDA FOR EXPECTED DELIVERABLES from our Brethren in Political Elective and appointive positions for our dear Clime in the new year 2025!
“Please list or present to them of what you expect, in your Ward, Clan Community and families! Point them to your local critical NEEDS! It is not a hard task. Just take a look or ask your families members to provide you the needs of your people and pen same in this platform,” he said.
