The South East Renewed Hope Agenda (SERHA) has distributed food items to residents of Enugu State as part of efforts to support households and promote food security during the festive season.
Speaking at the event, the National Coordinator of SERHA, Hon. Belusochukwu Enwere, said the exercise was more than a humanitarian gesture, describing it as a symbol of hope, solidarity and unity in celebration of the birth of Christ.
He noted that the initiative reflects the people-centred philosophy of the Renewed Hope Agenda being championed by the current administration.
According to Enwere, governance should be measured not only by policies and statistics but by how government actions translate into tangible relief and improved living conditions for ordinary citizens.
He said the food distribution underscores President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to ensuring that government policies have a direct and positive impact on the lives of Nigerians.
“Food security remains a major challenge confronting our nation, and it is in recognition of this reality that SERHA has intervened by bringing food support directly to the grassroots,” Enwere said.
He described the exercise as a modest contribution aimed at helping families in Enugu State put food on their tables during the Christmas season.
While acknowledging that food items alone cannot resolve all socioeconomic challenges, Enwere stressed that the gesture sends a clear message that the people are not forgotten and that support remains within reach.
He reaffirmed SERHA’s commitment to inclusive development, equity and shared prosperity across the South East.
The SERHA coordinator commended President Tinubu for the establishment of the South East Development Commission, which he said is driving significant development across the region.
He also praised the administration for the inclusion of young Nigerians in governance, describing it as a commendable step towards national growth and sustainability.
Enwere urged beneficiaries to use the food items judiciously to support their families and households.
He assured the people of Enugu State that the distribution was one of several planned engagements aimed at improving livelihoods, strengthening community resilience and fostering unity.
He added that SERHA would continue to collaborate with relevant institutions and stakeholders to implement programmes that address both immediate needs and long-term development priorities in the region.
In his concluding remarks, Enwere called on residents to embrace unity, patience and hope, stressing that shared prosperity can only be achieved through sustained commitment and collective effort.
He ended the event by praying for Enugu State, the South East and the Federal Republic of Nigeria, while wishing the people continued peace and progress.
