AleP Urges Participation of Awba-Ofemili Indigenes @2022 Crusade

Indigenes of Awba-Ofemili in Awka-North Local Government Area of Anambra State have been enjoined to participate in the forthcoming general two-day crusade being organized by the Awba-Ofemili Development Union (ADU).

This call was made by the National Co-ordinator, Awba-Ofemili League of Professionals (ALeP), Chinenyeze Remmy Nweke at the weekend in Lagos.

He said that the call has become necessary to encourage the citizens of Awba-Ofemili, especially professionals across board to actively participate and contribute towards the success of the two-day crusade slated for April 20 through 21.

ALeP, Nweke said is drumming support for the 2022 Crusade following the earlier endorsement of the Igwe Ofemili 1 of Awba-Ofemili, His Royal Highest Ernest Ezekwesili Maduagwuna and President-General (PG) Awba-Ofemili Development Union (ADU), Mr. Anthony Nwakeze as well as the Igwe-in-council, and Awba-Ofemili Youth Assembly (AYA) led by Chinedu Mebene among others.

He therefore invited indigenes and well-wishers of Awba-Ofemili to the two-day power-packed crusade with the theme “Operation Cleanse the Land.”

Nweke recalled that the chairman and secretary, ADU Prayer Committee, Messrs Justin Nwankwocha and Matthew Nwobu respectively, had revealed that the first day would play host to Rev. Fr Mike Okagbue with the topic “Righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach.”

According to the ADU Prayer Committee, the Venerable Michael Okoh would take the crusade on the second day to explore the topic “Operation Cleanse the Land” alongside a host of anointed men of God.

In addition, Nweke enjoined all professionals from Awba-Ofemili to ensure they are part of the two-day crusade which is to be held at the Community Secondary School field, Awba-Ofemili by 1pm daily.

He further recalled that ALeP is a group of all conscious, keen and capable professionals from Awba-Ofemili town in Awka-North Local Government Area of Anambra State, championing advocacy for a united front for the development and restoration of the rice-producing, agrarian and safe society in the town.

ALeP is equally endowed with requisite human resources actively playing in all sectors of the economy.

“Therefore, ALeP members worldwide are encouraged to join the crusade actively,” Nweke said.
