Anambra Business Community Charged To Utilize Social Media For Higher Visibility, Productivity

By Queen Anigbogu (ABS News)

Anambra business community and residents have been charged to make effective use of social media platforms to enhance the visibility and productivity of their businesses.

This was the consensus among resource persons at the Business, Balance and Beyond (B³) Summit, held in Awka, Anambra State.

The summit, convened by Dr. Ella Ezeadilieje, popularly known as Veronica’s Daughter on social media, is a free empowerment programme for entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals.

Addressing participants, Dr. Ezeadilieje said the summit focuses on wealth creation, financial strategies, as well as maintaining personal health and well-being alongside business growth.

She lamented that many residents of Anambra State are more active as consumers of social media content than as content creators.

Dr. Ezeadilieje therefore encouraged them to leverage social media to showcase their businesses, products and services, thereby increasing visibility, reaching wider markets and improving productivity.

In her presentation, Dr. Kelechi Okoro emphasized the importance of prioritizing health alongside wealth creation.

She advised participants to eat healthy meals, engage in regular physical exercise and undergo routine medical checks to maintain good health.

The panel session, which featured Chief Joseph Ezeadilieje, husband of the convener; Professor Olusegun Sogbesan of Onitsha Business School; and Mr. Kelvin Onovo of the Finished Men Association, focused on “What It Takes to Build Powerful and Sustainable Relationships and Businesses.”

The panelists noted that it is possible to achieve a healthy and wealthy life, both privately and publicly, with the right support system and positive relationships.

The summit also featured health talks and free medical services, including eye examinations, HIV screening and breast cancer screening.

Dignitaries at the event included the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Anambra Broadcasting Service, Mr. Chris Molokwu; Ms. Nkiruka Okonkwo of Union Bank; Engineer Ndubisi Chidomere of PAMTECH Group; and actress Racheal Okonkwo, popularly known as Nkoli Nwa Nsukka among others.

The summit provided an avenue for participants to gain practical knowledge on business growth, financial management, healthy living and the effective use of social media for personal and professional development.

Anambra Joins Lagos, Kwara Gombe For Global Fund-Supported Alternative Delivery Model Technical Assistance Workshop

By Chukwuemeka Modilim (ABS News)

Anambra State has joined Lagos, Kwara, and Gombe States in a two-day Technical Assistance Workshop on the Alternative Delivery Model supported by the Global Fund through the Society for Family Health in Abuja.

The workshop brought together representatives of government ministries, agencies, parastatals, implementing partners, and non-governmental organizations to strengthen understanding and implementation of the TASAD Project, an Alternative Delivery Model designed to build sustainable private-sector access to HIV prevention, Tuberculosis, and Malaria services.

Anambra State was represented by the Anambra State AIDS Control Agency (ANSACA) and the Anambra State Ministry of Health, and the delegation included the Executive Director of ANSACA, Dr. Nkem Okeke; the Director of Public Health; the State Programme Coordinator for HIV/AIDS and STIs; and the State Malaria Programme Coordinator.

Speaking during the technical sessions, Dr. Okeke emphasized the importance of expanding Alternative Delivery Models to complement existing public-sector health services and improve access to essential HIV, TB, and malaria interventions.

He noted that Anambra State’s strong commercial base, vibrant private health sector, and large network of businesses, pharmacies, laboratories, and other private service providers present significant opportunities for a more inclusive and sustainable healthcare delivery system.

According to him, strengthening public-private collaboration through the ADM approach will help take essential services closer to the people, reach populations that may not routinely access public health facilities, reduce pressure on conventional service delivery points, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of HIV, TB, and malaria interventions.

The Anambra State delegation also participated in technical discussions on developing practical, state-specific approaches to implementation, coordination, commodity management, data reporting, quality assurance, and sustainability of the Alternative Delivery Model.

Dr. Okeke maintained that ANSACA remains committed to working with the State Ministry of Health, development partners, and the private sector to explore innovative approaches that strengthen healthcare access and contribute to a healthier Anambra State.

By Amaka Onwuzulike (ABS News)

As part of the moves to celebrate community shared values by the Anambra State Town Unions Council Youth Wing, ASTUC Youth, ten community role models were decorated and presented with awards of excellence at Anambra West Council Area by ASTUC.

The programme, which took place at Nzam, Anambra West Council Headquarters, saw ten sons of the council area who distinguished themselves in different aspects of life, both in character, community development, and learning, presented with awards as role models to lead the youths of Anambra West in positive aspects of life.

It also brought together youths from the ten communities that make up the council area, who received the ASTUC Youth Wing National President, Comrade Ken Okoli, and other state executives with cultural displays, masquerading, and a series of activities depicting the rich culture, traditions, and norms of Ndi Anambra West.

Addressing the gathering, the ASTUC Youth Wing National President, Comrade Okoli, said they were there to promote positive aspects of life among the youths as enshrined in the shared values of Governor Chukwuma Soludo, stating that no society can progress without a value system, and commended the governor for understanding the value system and making it one of his four key pillars in reshaping the state to be the envy of others.

Comrade Okoli disclosed that they took it upon themselves to identify the twelve core values of Onye Anambra to be guided by the shared values, and to find those whose character symbolizes the values, and make them role models to help in directing, leading, and instructing the youths of their areas on how to become useful to themselves, their parents, community, and society at large.

He further praised Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s moves in flushing out those confusing the youths through diabolical means, and advised them to engage in activities that will promote positivity, shun hard drugs and other related ills that will mar their future, and emulate their role models so as to reflect the substructure of the state as the light of the nation.

A former Chairman of Anambra West Local Government Area, Dr. Felix Ikechi from Olumbanasa, who is also an aspirant for Anambra West House of Assembly, commended the governor for the eradication of social vices, youth restiveness, and ills among the youths, which the ASTUC Youths are taking down to the locals to ensure no youth is left out, and charged them to embrace sincerity, uprightness, integrity, and positive values, which made him stand out as one of the role models, while calling on the ASTUC National President, Comrade Okoli, to keep up the tempo so that Anambra State youths will take their rightful positions.

On his part, Chief Osita Offorzor, who spoke through his aide, Chief Aniekweze Chukwuemeka-Nwokedi, also an ASTUC role model, asked the youths to embrace the values that will help them to better the society, stating that he has continued to champion skill acquisition and other activities to promote the youths and channel their minds to meaningful lifestyles.
