Kogi Legislator Commission Projects, Plans Mass Wedding for 100 Youths in Constituency

Ankpa 1 Constituency Erupts in Joy as Lawmaker Revitalizes Slaughterhouse, Announces Mass Wedding for 100 Youths

The atmosphere in Ankpa 1 Constituency was electric with appreciation and excitement, as their representative at the State House of Assembly, Hon. Lawal Akus, commissioned a renovated slaughterhouse, breathing new life into a vital community resource. The popular Abattoir, in continuous use since 1970, had never undergone any form of maintenance, resulting in unhygienic conditions. "Homeboy," as he is affectionately known, not only gave the facility a much-needed facelift, but also provided a motorized borehole to ensure a steady and efficient water supply.

The event drew notable figures, including politicians from various political parties, local leaders, royalty, and representatives from various institutions, all eager to witness the transformative project.

Attendees offered prayers for wisdom and strength, as they expressed their gratitude and hopes for further positive change in the community.

In a surprising announcement, Hon. Akus Lawal revealed his intention to sponsor and support the weddings of 100 youths from Ankpa LGA who have been unable to marry due to financial constraints. As mass weddings are typically sponsored by state Governors in the Northern part of Nigeria, this commitment by Hon. Lawal took the audience by surprise and further fueled their enthusiasm.

Hon. Lawal's dedication to uplifting his constituents has led many to regard him as a gem among legislators and a representative from "another planet." The community eagerly anticipates more transformative initiatives that will continue to make a positive impact on their lives.
