In less than a month, the Ukehe General Assembly Abuja (UGAA) will welcome a new set of leaders as it prepares for its forthcoming elections. With three sons of Nkporogwu Ewuji Ukehe vying for the chairmanship position, the association is expected to witness a vibrant democratic process.

The contenders for the chairmanship position include Emmanuel Titus Aroh, the current Vice Chairman, Andy Igwe, the former Vice Chairman and Secretary, and Ozoji Sylvanus, the current Treasurer of the association. As the highest organ of the Ukehe people residing in Abuja and its environs, the UGAA plays a crucial role in promoting unity, progress, and development within the community.

The current leadership, led by Chief Barr Ifesi Nwodo, has served with distinction for quite some time. Having been elected on Sunday, August 4th, 2019, Chief Barr Ifesi Nwodo and his team were reelected for a second tenure, including an extra year added due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With this extension, Chief Barr Ifesi Nwodo's tenure in this esteemed position reaches a commendable five years.

The second tenure is set to end on August 7th, 2024, paving the way for new leaders to lead UGAA into the future. The association is committed to upholding democratic principles and conducting fair elections to ensure a smooth transition of power.

 In line with this, the UGAA has scheduled its July meeting on Sunday, July 7th, 2024.

The agenda of the meeting includes crucial matters such as the final reading and passage of the constitution into bye-law, account presentation, and the constitution of electoral committee members. The meeting will take place at 3 pm and will be graciously hosted by Ozor Chief Friday Aroh. The venue for the event is Tickles Garden, located in Wuse Zone 5. Ozor Chief Friday Aroh, the owner of Tickles Garden, has kindly offered to host the gathering in support of UGAA's commitment to community engagement and progress.

This meeting presents an opportune moment for all Ukehe people residing in Abuja and its environs to gather, discuss important matters, and contribute to the future development of the community. UGAA encourages all interested stakeholders to attend and actively participate in the meeting.

As the association approaches this important milestone, it is crucial that all members take an active interest in the leadership transition and contribute to the growth and development of UGAA. By coming together, the Ukehe people can continue to foster harmonious relationships, promote unity, and work towards achieving the association's goals and objectives.

The forthcoming election, scheduled to take place in August 2024, offers an opportunity for fresh ideas, perspectives, and enthusiasm to be injected into the leadership of UGAA. By embracing this change, UGAA is poised to embark on a new era of progress and prosperity for the Ukehe community.

With unity and active participation, the Ukehe General Assembly Abuja can build on its rich heritage and effectively address the evolving needs of its members. Let us all unite and work towards a brighter future for UGAA and the Ukehe people.
