The Member representing Boki/Ikom Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Victor Abang, has sponsored a peace-building training programme for 450 traditional chiefs drawn from the two local government areas that make up the constituency.
The initiative, according to a Facebook post by his Personal Assistant on Media and Publicity, Simon Abang, is aimed at strengthening grassroots conflict resolution and promoting sustainable peace across Boki and Ikom.
“Hon. Victor Abang, Member representing Boki/Ikom Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, has sponsored the training of 450 traditional chiefs on peace-building and peace development across Boki and Ikom,” the post stated.
