…G1 throws millions to support food for Christians and Muslims in Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro Federal Constituency
In what many residents have described as a remarkable blend of compassion, spirituality, and grassroots leadership, Prince Gowon Eneche, popularly known as G1 and a frontline aspirant for the House of Representatives seat representing Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro Federal Constituency, marked the 2026 Easter celebrations with far-reaching humanitarian gestures and community engagements.
In continuation of his now familiar tradition of inclusive giving, G1 reportedly disbursed millions of naira to support the preparation of Easter meals for Christian communities across the three local government areas. The gesture, according to observers, mirrors a similar intervention he extended to Muslim faithful during the last Salah celebration—an act widely praised as a symbol of unity, fairness, and religious balance.
Speaking during the celebrations, G1 emphasized the importance of peaceful coexistence in a pluralistic society. “In a richly diverse society like ours, our collective strength lies in our ability to embrace our differences with mutual respect and understanding. Religious tolerance and peaceful coexistence must remain at the core of our interactions, as they are essential pillars for unity, stability, and sustainable development,” he stated.
He further called on citizens to embody the true essence of Easter beyond festivity. “Let this Easter inspire us all to become true ambassadors of peace—promoting unity over division, dialogue over discord, and love over hatred. Regardless of our faith or beliefs, we must continue to uphold the dignity of one another and work together in building a society where everyone feels valued, safe, and respected,” he added.
Beyond philanthropy, G1’s Easter itinerary included a firsthand assessment of infrastructural challenges within the constituency. His visit to Ochi Attah community in Ankpa Suburb II revealed what he described as alarming levels of neglect.
“The plight of underdeveloped communities within the Ankpa Federal Constituency is often spoken of, but seeing is believing,” he said. “Arriving under the cover of night only further illuminated the challenges: dilapidated roads and a pervasive darkness that these resilient people have been forced to accept as their fate.”
Visibly concerned by the absence of basic amenities, he announced immediate intervention measures. “This neglect ends now. I have directed the immediate installation of solar streetlights in the community to restore safety and hope. This is just the beginning,” G1 declared, drawing applause from residents who gathered to receive him.
He reiterated his broader political vision, positioning his ambition as a mission for transformation rather than mere office-seeking. “With your mandate, every community across Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro will experience the tangible, positive impact of proactive leadership. We are not just seeking an office; we are seeking a transformation. Let us transcend the status quo and deliver the true dividends of democracy together,” he said.
Earlier in the day, the aspirant joined worshippers in Imane at Galilee, where he participated in Easter services in what he described as a deeply spiritual and emotional experience. “The air in Imane carries a special grace today. I spent my morning walking and worshipping alongside my brothers and sisters. It was an experience that transcended the ordinary—a moment of pure, organic connection with both the Creator and the community that raised me,” he noted.
Reflecting on the atmosphere, he added, “To see the smiles, to hear the songs of praise, and to feel the collective pulse of a community driven by light was nothing short of magnificent. In the heart of Imane, faith isn’t just practiced; it is lived. Grateful for the fellowship. Inspired by the love.”
In a further highlight of his Easter engagements, G1 paid homage to the traditional institution with a visit to the palace of the revered HRH Abubakar Ahmad Yakubu II. The meeting, described as both symbolic and affirming, saw the monarch offer words of encouragement regarding his leadership style and values.
“Standing before His Royal Highness, I listened with deep humility as he offered words of commendation regarding my path and the principles I stand for. To have my integrity and the values of my brand validated by a monarch of such high standing is an experience that transcends mere politics, it is a proof to the power of consistent character,” G1 said.
He expressed deep appreciation for the royal blessing, adding, “In the echoes of the palace, I found renewed strength. Thank you, Agagwu, for the fatherly embrace and the kind words that today enriched my soul. Long live the King. Agagwu!”
As the Easter celebrations concluded, G1 urged constituents to reflect deeply on the lessons of the season. “At this critical time in our nation and the world at large, may we draw lessons from the life and sacrifice of Jesus Christ by extending kindness to the less privileged, fostering stronger bonds within our communities, and committing ourselves to the pursuit of peace and justice,” he said.
He concluded with a message of hope and unity: “May the joy and blessings of Easter fill our hearts with renewed hope, strengthen our unity as one people, and guide us toward a brighter and more prosperous future.”
For many across Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro, this year’s Easter celebration was not only a time of spiritual renewal but also a moment that underscored the growing political relevance of a candidate whose actions continue to resonate strongly at the grassroots.
