PUBLIC DISCLAIMER: FRAUDULENT IMPERSONATION AND SCAM ALERT 🚨

The attention of the Executive Secretary has been drawn to fraudulent accounts and malicious individuals impersonating him on social media to deceive the public.

These impostors are falsely contacting individuals regarding purported procurements and bidding processes, demanding unauthorized financial remittances and fees under the guise of securing official approvals.

The Executive Secretary does not now, nor will he ever, engage in unethical behavior, demand kickbacks, or request money/bribes of any kind for official processes

Official institutional processes are transparent and are never conducted through private financial demands or informal arrangements.

Report the fake account immediately using Facebook's reporting tools. Thank you.

Every Child Deserves the Opportunity to Dream

The future of Lavun, Edati, and Mokwa Federal Constituency will be shaped by the children we nurture today. Every child deserves a safe environment, quality education, good healthcare, and the opportunity to discover and develop their talents.

Our responsibility goes beyond meeting today's needs—we must create a future where every child has the confidence to dream, the knowledge to succeed, and the support to become a responsible leader.

Our vision is to encourage policies and initiatives that strengthen education, promote child welfare, support families, and invest in programmes that prepare our young people for a brighter tomorrow.

When we invest in our children, we invest in the future of our communities. We plant the seeds of leadership, innovation, and lasting prosperity.

Together, let us build a constituency where every child is valued, every talent is nurtured, and every dream has the opportunity to become reality.
