When the Commissioner, ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare, Hon Lady Nkechinyere Ugwu, UNJP resumed office, she did tell her staff that it will be no longer business as usual. It’s going to be work and work.
That was not mere rhetorics. The Commissioner has moved since then to match words with action. When capacity meets with determination, dedication and devotion, the result becomes massive.
The ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare under the watch of the Commissioner, moved beyond Imo State bearing in mind the work of the ministry, which among others are providing welfare succour to indigenes of the state irrespective of their location, stopping any kind of dehumanization and preserving the sanctity of human life.
Recently, the ministry in her dutifulness repatriated a man from Edo state said to have been missing since the civil war. He has been reunited with his family in Isiala Mbano local government area of Imo State.
In the same vein, the ministry found a girl and her child and repatriated them, through Lagos liaison office. They were said to have been trafficked to Ivory Coast. She has been reunited with her family in Obowo local government area of Imo State.
The Commissioner has continued to say that Imo Government will not tolerate any form of trafficking of human persons, or harassment and victimization of vulnerable Imo citizens.
