High Chief Manuwa Morgan Ogiri (MMO), the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate for the House of Representatives, Ahoada West / Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni (ONELGA) Federal Constituency, on Wednesday held a heartwarming meeting with Ekpeye women married into Egi communities at Erema.
The gathering, described by attendees as more than a political meeting, turned into a reunion of sisters, families and communities bound together by blood, marriage, culture and shared heritage.
Discussions at the meeting centred on the future of the constituency, community development, women's empowerment, opportunities for children, and a better future for every family across Egi and ONELGA.
MMO used the occasion to present his vision and commitment to quality representation and inclusive development for the constituency.
The women received his message with excitement, joy and overwhelming enthusiasm, celebrating him in their beautiful Ekpeye dialect and cultural expressions.
In their remarks, the women said marriage may have connected them to different communities, but their blood, heritage and sisterhood keep them united.
They pledged to spread the message of support to their families, husbands, children, relatives and communities, including those living outside Egi.
The show of solidarity, according to organisers, is a reminder that unity knows no boundaries and that development is a shared responsibility.
"Together, we can build a stronger constituency. Together, we can create a better future. Together, we can make the difference!"
