Hear him: “We have come to pay our last respect to one of our own, Late Chief Emmanuel Nkole Uduma who was a teacher before switching to the banking sector. Late Chief Nkole was a disciplinarian, gentleman, and a peaceful man whose indelible mark and services to the Nation especially at the Nation’s apex bank, CBN where he worked diligently and retired meritoriously as a Senior Management Staff will remain evergreen in our minds.”
Chief Uduma used the medium to extoll the federal lawmaker, Rt. Hon.

and most especially the bill he sponsored for the Establishment of the Federal Polytechnic Abiriba, though has fully passed all the legislative procedures in the 8th Assembly but could not get Presidential assent as a result of paucity of time.”
According to Uduma, the proposed Bill has been committed to the relevant committee (Committee of the whole-house of Representatives) for reconsideration “as a matter of procedure and given life for expeditious Presidential assent,” he added, maintaining that the House sees it as a Bill that will go a long way in addressing some imbalances against the State.
Responding, Hon. Nkole expressed deep appreciation for the commiseration visit by the Teachers, reiterating that he (Nkole) is a product of Teachers as he described them as nation builders “whose preserving and resilience attitude on impacting knowledge to our children should not be overlooked but motivated for greater efficiency and output.”

Rt. Hon. Nkole added that his tenure in office in the 9th National Assembly will be a period to consolidate on his achievement in the 8th National Assembly, insisting, “as I a talk to you now, I attracted the funding in the 2020 Federal Government Appropriation Act for the rehabilitation of the F107 road: Umuahia-Bende-Ozu Abam-Ohafia Federal road to the tune of 172 million while the contractor handling the landslide projects at Ajata Ibeku and Bende along the arterial road are back on site.
