The Bishop noted that the housing projects went beyond Adazi-Nnukwu as he is aware of similar projects in the Senatorial District.
While stating that he is proud of Senator Ekwunife, Bishop Okoye stated that with the kind of representation Ekwunife is offering, there is nothing she seeks from the people that they wouldn’t grant her.
Speaking shortly before the commissioning, Ekwunife re-stated her resolve to provide a leadership that is fair, just and empathetic to all.

He appreciated the Senator for assuring that the ongoing road project she attracted to the community will be completed. “By the special grace of God you will emerge the next governor of the state”, Ichie Madubike told Ekwunife.
On his part, the traditional ruler of the community, Prof Augustine Obiekezie (Adama Adazi-Nnukwu) represented by the Chief of Amata clan, Chike Ezimorah said that the community cannot thank God enough for the gesture Ekwunife extended to the community, noting that she is a vessel of God’s blessings towards the people of Anambra state. He prayed God to continue to bless Ekwunife.
In his remarks, the member representing Anaocha Constituency I in the state assembly, Hon. Ebele Ejiofor commended the Senator nicknamed “Madam Project” for her giant strides. He assured Ekwunife that all delegates from Adazi-Nnukwu and by extension Anaocha LGA would vote for her on the day of the party primary.
Talking on, Hon. Ejiofor thanked the Chairman Senate Committee on Science and Technology for facilitating federal government relief grants for the people of her constituency. The State House lawmaker however urged those who are yet to benefit to visit Senator Ekwunife’s liaison office at Awka for assistance.
