Idoro Testifies to Ukodhiko’s Transparent Empowerment, Says Hope Still Alive for Ordinary Citizens ~ Truth Reporters

Mr. Eloho Idoro of Emevor, a beneficiary of an empowerment programme facilitated by the Member representing Isoko North/South Federal Constituency, Hon. Jonathan Ajirioghene Ukodhiko, has shared a compelling testimony highlighting what he described as transparency, fairness and people-centred leadership in the lawmaker’s interventions.

In a Facebook post, Idoro recounted how he initially doubted reports of a business expansion empowerment scheme carried out last year, suspecting, like many similar initiatives, that it might be politically influenced. 

However, he said his doubts were dispelled after he decided albeit reluctantly to prepare and submit a business plan for consideration.

According to him, his application was shortlisted strictly on merit, after which he was invited for a physical interview to defend his business proposal. 

“To the glory of God, I emerged as one of the 18 beneficiaries of the ₦500,000 empowerment grant, without any form of political influence,” he stated.

Idoro noted that the experience fundamentally changed his perception of governance and leadership, stressing that the process demonstrated that integrity and fairness are still possible in public office. 

“That singular act made me understand that there is still hope for the common man in the corridors of power,” he wrote.

He further described Hon. Ukodhiko as a leader who listens to the cries of his people and responds decisively without compromise, commending both the lawmaker and his foundation for prioritising genuine empowerment over patronage.

Expressing his gratitude, Idoro pledged continued support for Ukodhiko’s principles, programmes and vision for the Isoko nation, affirming confidence in his leadership and endorsing his aspiration for re-election in 2027.

Since assuming office, Hon. Ukodhiko has been widely acknowledged for initiating empowerment schemes, interventions and constituency projects aimed at improving livelihoods and expanding economic opportunities across Isoko North and South.
