The Chairman of Etche Local Government Council, Hon. Chima Njoku Boniface, has officially released the second phase of the Etche Legislative Assembly’s land empowerment project.

He described the gesture as a practical show of commitment to the welfare, stability, and motivation of the legislative arm.
He noted that the Chairman’s continued support fosters a stronger working relationship between the legislature and the executive, adding that the empowerment will further inspire councillors to deliver quality representation to their various wards.
He reaffirmed the Assembly’s readiness to continue collaborating with the Chairman for the progress and development of Etche.
Beyond the empowerment initiative, Hon. Njoku has continued to champion projects that strengthen governance and community welfare, including improved electricity supply, infrastructural upgrades, and enhanced support for community-driven initiatives.
With the successful rollout of both phases of the land empowerment project, the Etche Council Boss continues to set a new standard for responsive, visionary, and people-oriented leadership in Etche Local Government Area.
