 Today, as I celebrate my 61st birthday, my heart is incredibly full. For eight of these celebrations, I have had the rare privilege of serving as your Governor. It has been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve this extraordinary state and its people. The journey has been demanding, humbling and deeply rewarding. Leading a state as dynamic and energetic as Lagos is no small task. It has taught me more about resilience and patience than any other chapter in my life. I am filled with gratitude today, gratitude for life, for family, for health and for the enduring trust of Lagosians. Public service has its challenging days but the privilege of building a greater Lagos makes every single moment worth it. We have come a long way together yet the work never stops. As I celebrate today, my commitment to you remains as strong as ever. There is still more to do, more to build and more progress to achieve for everyone who calls this great state home. Thank you, Lagosians, for walki...

SPORTS: PRIZE MONEY MEANT FOR THE WINNERS OF THE RECENTLY CONCLUDED FOOTBALL COMPETITION ACROSS LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN ABIA STATE HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH IN OSISIOMA NGWA LOCAL GOVERNMENT.(PHOTO). #PRESS RELEASE.


 PRESS RELEASE


It has come to our attention with deep disappointment and outrage that the prize money meant for the winners of the recently concluded football competition across local governments in Abia State has been tampered with in Osisioma Ngwa Local Government.


The Abia State Government approved and released the following prize money:

₦500,000 for the 1st position, ₦250,000 for the 2nd position, and ₦100,000 for the 3rd position.


Shockingly, the teams in Osisioma Ngwa were only given ₦200,000, ₦100,000 and ₦50,000 respectively. This means that a significant portion of the funds meant to reward the hard work of our young athletes has been withheld by individuals entrusted with this responsibility.


Our youths trained, sacrificed their time and represented their communities with passion and dignity. 


To cheat them of their rightful reward is not only unjust but a direct insult to the spirit of youth development the state government intends to promote.


We therefore demand the immediate and full release of the remaining prize money to the affected teams without further delay.


Let it be clearly stated: if this injustice is not corrected promptly, we will not hesitate to escalate this matter to the appropriate authorities and ensure that those responsible are held accountable before the law and before the people of Osisioma Ngwa.


The good people and youths of Osisioma Ngwa will not remain silent while funds meant for their development are diverted.


We call on the Abia State Government to urgently investigate this matter and ensure transparency in the management of all youth development programs within our local government.


Justice must be done, and it must be now.

Signed:


Osisioma Ngwa Legislative Council
