When he came on board, according to him, he came with the agenda of transparency, responsiveness, members welfares, reconciliation and conducive meeting venue. Others were time management, youths and members skill acquisition, relationship with the government and constitution review.

Disclosing that ASTPA under his watch acquired land, in Nando Anambra state, for ASTPA Model Estate, the PG added that he had been organising Anambra Day, to promote unity, peace and rich culture of the people of Anambra state. He however boasted that one of the themes of his Anambra Day celebration, Aku Ruo Ulo, literally meaning, Invest Homeward, has started since motivating Umu Anambra within and outside Nigeria to invest homeward.

He however advised the newly inducted BoT members and the old ones to collaborate, toward giving the members of the executive and ordinary members fatherly advice for the Association to move forward.

Welcoming the newly inducted BoT members, their Chairman, Chief James Agubalu assured them of smooth cooperation, as well as appealed that they join in moving the Association forward. Agubalu charged the executive members for performance and listening to advice. He further advised all to always keep to the law and involve God in everything, which if done would go a long way .

Calling for patronizing Anambra indigenes in the FCT, the CEO, Chelsea Group of Companies, Chief Patrick Chidolue, a BoT member, said no matter how small, it would go a long way for the person patronized, even as he informed that other tribes, states, associations and groups do the same thing.

Pledging the BoT members’ support to the executive and urging members to do so, he however hailed the executive for securing a vast area of land for members in Nando, Anambra state, even as he appealed to the executive, to secure land that would be affordable to the low income earners. This he said would go a long way.

One of the inductees, Rev Okonkwo pledged to do everything within the reach of the law and power of God to support the Association’s BoT and the executive, noting that with strict adherence to the law and involvement of God in everything in the support to members of the executive, the BoT and the Association’s members in general, the sky, according to him would be the Association’s limit.
