Orogbu Wins Legislator Of The Year Award

The member representing Awka North and South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Prof. Oby Lilian Orogbu, has been honoured with the Legislator of the Year Award at the 5th edition of the Anambra Man of the Year (AMTY) Awards.

The award was presented during a gathering of distinguished personalities and prominent voices from across Anambra State to celebrate excellence, leadership and outstanding contributions to society.

After receiving the award, Orogbu described the honour as more than a personal recognition, saying it acknowledged her journey from the classroom to the National Assembly.

“I have continued to combine scholarship, grassroots engagement and legislative responsibility in serving the people of Awka North and South Federal Constituency,” she said.

The lawmaker thanked the organisers of the award and dedicated the honour to the people of her constituency, describing their mandate and continued support as her greatest motivation.

“I’m grateful to the organisers of this prestigious award, particularly the chairman of the Planning Committee, Prof. Adaoma Igwedibia, and her dedicated team for creating a platform that recognises individuals whose contributions continue to impact society.

“This honour reflects not only my individual efforts but also the shared journey of the people I represent towards progress, development and meaningful impact.

“From chalk to chamber, my journey continues, and I’m just getting started. Rather than making me complacent, this award will inspire me to do even more for my constituents.

“This honour is not the conclusion of my public service journey but an added responsibility and motivation to deepen my engagement with the people.

“It also strengthens my resolve to expand my legislative interventions and continue pursuing initiatives that promote opportunities, empowerment and sustainable development across Awka North and South Federal Constituency.”

The recognition comes amid Orogbu’s growing profile in legislative engagement and constituency representation.
