Prof. Paul Nnamchi, who is a Labour Party member, said this on Sunday, 25 June 2023 in Ako-Nike community in Enugu East Local Government Area during his Post-Inauguration Reception that attracted thousands of notable Nigerians and well wishers.
“I am grateful. Your overwhelming vote for me is a vote of courage, a source of strength to do the right things when the time comes and the time is now.” He said.
Nnamchi, whose post-inauguration reception started with a Thanksgiving Service at St. Andrew’s (Anglican) Basilica, Trans-Ekulu, Enugu, said he would run an open door and inclusive policy. He said:
“I will make myself accessible to all, especially people of my constituency.
“I will be a representative that the people can see, reach and touch as well as answer the call of my constituents anytime”.
Nnamchi said he had kick-started his empowerment programme prior to his election, which is founded on his initiative christened: “Prof. Paul Nnamchi Tech-hub and Youth Innovation (PPNTAYI).”
According to him, “I have started with computer training, digital soft skills and Artificial Intelligence (AI) for youths and pupils of school age within the PPNTAYI initiative.
“As you can see and notice, we don’t have roads in the constituency. So I intend to attract more road projects to this area.
“I will ensure we also have a good road network that will link the whole constituency as it will lead to rapid development of this area,” he assured.
On education, the representative said that he would have indirect intervention in education, adding that he would bring into play informal education that would be of a great benefit to the people by raising their socio-economic status.
