Amb Emmanuel Nkweke the International Spokesman of the association also stressed the need for the recipients to match their appointments with actions. He said it is imperative that they engage various stakeholders towards ensuring that their impacts as peace ambassadors are felt not only in Kenya alone but in the entire subregion.

Amb. Metchie who is from Anambra state, told our reporter that he intends to use the UN conference to draw attention on the issue of erosion that is affecting his home state.

“You know I am an Anambra man and we have been suffering from the issue of gully erosion so my mission here aside the peace advocacy you know me for, is to ensure that the United Nations through its agencies, come to the aid of our people. We have suffered from this environmental crisis for too long and I thank God Almighty for being part of this conference which I hope to use to draw the attention of the whole world to the environmental crisis ravaging my state. Our governor is doing his best and I intend to compliment what he is doing through the presentations I will make today at the opening Session of the UN Habitat Assembly” Amb Metchie said.
