The communiqué also stressed several critical areas:
-
Unity Among Idomas: The AGM emphasized the importance of unity and collaboration as vital to the Idoma people’s collective advancement.
-
Funding Support: The body appreciated the financial contributions from Idoma sons and daughters both at home and abroad, encouraging all branches to continue supporting the development of the Idoma Nation.
-
Development Priorities: It reiterated the need to pursue key initiatives from the 2023 Ogiri Okoh Lecture. The new executive was tasked with forming a committee to oversee and track progress on these goals.
The AGM concluded with the election of new national leaders to pilot the affairs of the organisation, reaffirming its commitment to the growth, security, and prosperity of Idoma land.
