In a remark, the Managing Director, Awka Capital Development Authority and an indigene, Mr Mike Okonkwo, said that the community had hardly benefited from the government since the creation of the state.
He urged the community to support and vote for Gov. Willie Obiano in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in the state.
