Speaking during the event Chairman, Ihiala Local Government Union in the Netherland Engr. Ugochukwu Ndukaihe disclosed that the gathering was born out from his last visit to the health facility in Amorka early last year.
According to him, “I was not happy with what I saw. It was just empty, no facilities.  And, I believe that the other health centres in our Local Government might be in the same state. When I went back to Holland, I discussed the deplorable state of primary health facility with my executives and the entire members of Ihiala Local Government Union in the Netherland.
“After our deliberations, we then reached to a conclusion to start with ten medical foams for the five towns that have their indigenes in the Union Ihiala, Okija, Uli, Amorka, and Mbosi.
Ndukaihe also stated that this charity work will not stop with this, more will be coming by God’s grace. “The reasons we are doing this is to give back to the land of our fore fathers, and to encourage others in Europe, America, and the world at large to follow suit. Let us join hands in building our communities, Local Government Area, our state, and our Igbo nation.
Thank you all for coming, and for listening.”
Also speaking, the Chairman Ihiala LGA Engr. Jude Obi said “I want to commend and thank in a special way the Ihiala Local Government Union in The Netherlands for donation of the 50 hospital mattresses.
The gesture, he stated will encourage others living in other parts of the world to queue in into similar developmental idealogy.
The chairman appealed to five other communities (Azia, Isseke, Orsumoghu, Ubuluisuzor and Lilu) in Ihiala Local Government Area living in Netherland to join the great association in developing Ihiala LGA, saying “we would have gotten more items if they were registered with the association.”
The traditional ruler of Amorka HRH Igwe K. O. Obiriolemgbe (Ogbuefi Jideofor V) said this memorable event will serve as a wake up call to other Ihiala Indigenes living abroad to remember home.
According to him, it is important to always remember and give back to the community.
The Legal Adviser of the Igwe in Cabinet, Amorka, Barr. Chief C.L. Ndukaihe also commended the Ihiala Local Government Union in the Netherland
under the able leadership of Engr. Ugochukwu Ndukaihe for given back to the society especially during this Covid 19 Pandemic.
He urged them not to relent in their struggle to equip the health facilities in Ihiala L.G.A.

How to jump-start Nigeria economy post-COVID-19 Pandemic

Nwali Tochukwu Watching with consternation the fall out of events, actions, and inactions of our Nigerian leaders on mitigating the negative impact of COVID-19 Pandemic disruptions on our social and economic lives. As a young dynamic business and entrepreneurship writer, and author cum small business owner, what came into my mind as we navigate the storms of COVID-19, was a common English phrase Adages, Proverbs, first recorded in Fuller’s Gnomologia, 1732: ‘A stitch in time saves nine’ which was translated to literally, solve the problems right now! Why procrastinating? If we, as a nation wants to break away from past mistakes, and present mistakes, we should hold the bull by the horn right now. And avoid the roads of political expediency. That is exactly what the stitch in time simply stood for. Promptly address issues posed by Coronavirus. By quickly sewing up of a small hole or tear in a piece of material, so saving the need for more stitching at a later date when the whole ha...
