Chairman, Okehi local government of Kogi State, Hon. Amoka Eneji Monday, has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to supporting the welfare of students in the LGA.

Represented by his Chief of Staff, Hon.

As part of our commitment, we have donated a new office space to ESA at the Civic Centre, Obangede, to serve their secretariat needs just like we did to her sister organisation, Ihima Students Union (ISU) a few months ago at Ihima Shopping Complex, Oboroke,” he said.
