The National Congress of Ohaji Youths (NACOY) has called on the Imo electorate to elect Governor Hope Uzodimma for a second term to sustain the current human capital development initiative.

The woman leader of the socio-political pressure group, Susan Amadi, made the call during a political awareness campaign organised by the group at Mgbirichi, Ohaji-Egbema Local Government Area on Sunday.

Ms Amadi lauded Mr Uzodimma’s interventions in human capital development, such as the Skill-Up-Imo project, a training programme mainly for youth.

She said the project could solve the problem of unemployment, growing youth enterprise, de-radicalising the youths, and addressing insecurity.

Ms Amadi further urged youths of the community, especially the female folk, to change their mindset toward social, political, educational and economic realities like their peers in other climes.

She said Mr Uzodimma’s intervention in human capital development would record greater mileage if he got re-elected.

“The girl child must, therefore, remove the barriers that prevent her from participating in society,” she said.

She advised the youth to fight political apathy during the November 11 governorship poll and turn en masse to exercise their franchise.
