–As Emohua Local Government Lunches Website And Automated Identity Card
The commitment of the administration of Dr Chidi Lloyd to changing the narrative in Emohua local government area through innovations and programs that would improve the socioeconomic development of the people of the area has been reaffirmed by the council chairman.
Dr Lloyd made the reaffirmation at the official launching of Emohua local government website and automated identity card at the council headquarters on Friday.
The council chairman said the conception of the local government website and automated identity card was in furtherance of his administration’s commitment to reposition the local government area, to stand out amongst local government areas, not only in Rivers State but across Nigeria.
He said the essence of the website was to keep the world acquainted with the history of the local government area, news updates on current developments across the 14 political wards in the area and the programs and activities of the local government council, as well as to connect the LGA with her indigenes in diaspora. The URL for the local government official website is: https://emolga.riversstate.gov.ng
Acclaiming Emohua local government area as the first to have a functional website and automated identity card system, Dr Lloyd said the automated identity card which will be a replacement of the usual A4 size local government identification letter was conceptualized by his administration in conformity with global best practice, stressing that the new automated ID card will be recognized and acceptable for any transaction beyond Emohua local government area because of its verifiable and reliable features.
He also explained that there is a provision in the local government website for indigenes of area who reside outside the local government area, including those in diaspora to be able to apply, pay and receive their own automated identity card from their different locations.
Highlight of the lunching ceremony was the presentation of the first copies of the automated ID card to the council chairman and the secretary to the local government, Chief Vincent Chukwu.
The brief ceremony also had in attendance, the wife of the executive chairman, Mrs Adanma Chidi Lloyd, the leader of Emohua legislative council, Hon Mrs Love Nyenke and members of the legislative council, the chairman of PDP in Emohua LGA, Hon Uche Minikwu and principal officers of Emohua local government council.
Meanwhile, the leader of PDP caucus in Emohua LGA, Eze Paul Wonodi has commended Dr Chidi Lloyd for his visionary leadership in the local government council, stressing that the choice of the council chairman to oversee the affairs of the local government area was one of the best decisions taken by the leadership of the PDP in the local government area.
Paul Wonodi stated this when the council chairman and his team visited him at his country home in Ogbakiri, to formally present to him his own copy of the new automated ID card on Friday.
He noted that Dr Chidi Lloyd has been able to change the narrative about the LGA within his very short time in office and prayed for God’s continuous grace and mercy upon the life of the council chairman, as he continues to make the people proud with unimaginable footprints.
