Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ethics and Privileges, Senator Neda Imasuen, has emphasized the importance of transparency in governance. He said this at a town hall meeting in Idogbo, Ikpoba Okha local government area of Edo State.
Imasuen made the call while consulting with various groups in the Edo South senatorial district, highlighting his achievements and listening to the people’s needs.
“The reason for this Town Hall meeting is to have direct contact with the people, so that I can know their needs. As you are aware, this is the middle of four years, and I thought that it is time to meet the people directly, where I don’t need to rely on third party as to what their needs are,” Imasuen stated.
He showcased some of his accomplishments, including constructing a 3.5km road with drainage and solar lights in Ovia South West local government area and providing empowerment for hundreds of youths. Additionally, he paid JAMB registration fees for over 300 youths and awarded scholarships to five individuals.
The federal lawmaker acknowledged the challenges of meeting all his constituents’ needs due to limited resources. “We may not have satisfied everybody, but whatever we have done, which a lot of persons are not aware of, we will let them know. We also want to hear from them what their needs are,” he said.
The senator expressed satisfaction in seeing people benefit from his projects, particularly in communities that had long been deprived of basic amenities.
