The Nzuko Arochukwu Women Wing Worldwide, led by its President General, Ezinne Onyekwere Olaedo, has paid a courtesy visit to the wife of the Abia State Governor, Mrs. Priscilla Otti, at her country home in Nvosi, Isiala Ngwa South Local Government Area.
The delegation visited to formally express its solidarity and support for the present administration, while also briefing the First Lady on the outcome of the union’s recent election.
Speaking during the visit, the President General congratulated Mrs. Otti for her support toward Governor Alex Otti’s development agenda and commended her commitment to women empowerment and social welfare initiatives across the state.
She noted that Arochukwu women, both at home and in the diaspora, remain united in supporting policies that promote peace, education, and economic growth.
“We are here today to assure you of our unwavering solidarity and to inform you of the peaceful conclusion of our election.
“The new leadership is committed to fostering unity among Arochukwu women and collaborating with government efforts to uplift our communities,” she said.
Mrs. Onyekwere also appealed to the Abia First Lady to support the union’s skills acquisition centre at Ugwuavo with an industrial bakery oven and a sachet water production machine.
According to her, the equipment would help reduce youth unemployment and poverty while contributing to the economic growth of the state.

She encouraged the newly elected executives to use their platform to advance the welfare of women and children in Arochukwu and beyond.
The First Lady reaffirmed her commitment to partnering with women groups and socio-cultural organisations to promote inclusive development across Abia State.
In her remarks, the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Women Affairs, Mrs. Chinenye Nwaka, commended the group for supporting the administration of Governor Alex Otti.
She advised members of the association to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and encourage others within their communities to do the same, stressing that active civic participation remains essential to sustaining good governance.
