The Executive Chairman of Obanliku Local Government Council, Hon. Chief (Dr) Sunny Ayang JP, has reaffirmed his administration’s unwavering commitment to the development of the local government area, particularly in the areas of infrastructure and security. He made this known during a meeting with the Obanliku Initiative (OI) held on Sunday in Calabar.

Hon. Sunny Ayang commended the Obanliku Initiative for its proactive stance and concern regarding boundary issues within the LGA, especially at the Lishiche axis bordering Benue State. As Chairman of the Boundary Committee and Council, he assured the group that he is well-informed on the boundary matters and has made concerted efforts to address the porous boundaries while ensuring peace and stability in affected areas.

Addressing security concerns raised by the group, especially those related to cattle rearing and the infiltration of foreign elements, the Chairman emphasised that his administration has initiated a community policing program. He revealed that recruitment for the initiative had begun, indicating a proactive step toward curbing insecurity.

Hon. Ayang also expressed deep concern over the rising cases of drug abuse among youths in the LGA, describing it as a major threat to community peace. He cited recent cases where six youths reportedly suffered mental health crises due to hard drug intake. According to the Chairman, to tackle the issue, the council has constituted an Anti-Quackery Committee aimed at combating drug abuse and the illegal distribution of narcotics in the area.

The Chairman further addressed the issue of fraudulent land sales, promising to take decisive action against those involved in such practices. He reiterated his administration’s commitment to empowering indigenous people by awarding local contracts and providing essential amenities across the LGA.

Calling for greater collaboration, Hon. Ayang urged members of the Obanliku Initiative and all stakeholders to join hands in advancing the development of the local government area.

In response, the Obanliku Initiative, led by Mr. Raphael Ugaji, commended the Executive Chairman for honouring their invitation and demonstrating genuine commitment to the progress of Obanliku. The group pledged their continued support for the administration while urging further action on the provision of pipe-borne water and access roads to farms to boost the local economy.

The meeting had in attendance, Hon Sunny Achunekang, Hon Jerry Ashua, Dr Achung Uyanah, Mr Frank Odey, Prof John Shiyam, Prof. Joseph Ugbu, Prof Augustine Ogogo, Dr Sylvester Abeshi, Ugar Akpachim, Barr Alex Ewa, Mr. Denis Inakefe, Mr. Thomas Ashibi, Barr David, Uyimleshi, Mr Elias Eyeshung, Mr Simon Ithu, among others.
