”In politics or general life, whenever you have an opportunity to serve the people, do it with your spirit, soul and body because the reward for selfless service is promotion in leadership.

“People may call you names when you try to live a life that is worthy of emulation but I am happy that some of those that took my advice some time ago are beginning to see positive results,” Mrakpor also known as Ada Anioma stated.

On his part, the Vice Chairman Aniocha South Local Government Area, Hon Joe Onwordi Ikenwe, emphasised the importance of loyalty to party structure.

Speaking with newsmen in response to a question on why the event was rancour free, the amiable politician attributed the success of the Congress in Ward 5 to the respect the people have for party structure.

His words: ” Loyalty to structure is the major reason today’s event was peaceful. Secondly, because men and women of integrity were brought to serve the Ward, the people were happy”.
Responding on behalf of the new ward executive, the vice chairman, Mr John Odiaka, pledged that they will not do anything without adhering to the party’s laid down rules and regulations.

“Since we were elected by the party to serve in this Ward, we cannot do anything on our own. Party supremacy will always be respected and any action by this executive must have the blessing of members of the party”, Odiaka said.
