Today, on behalf of the State Scout Commissioner, Comr. Chukwudi Adolphus-Mary Umeojiako, and the entire Youth Department, I celebrate the energy, creativity, courage, and limitless potential of every young Scout in the Anambra State Scout Council and around the world.

This year’s theme, “Different Contexts, Common Aspirations,” reminds us that although our experiences may differ, our dreams and aspirations unite us.

ANAMBRA STATE SCOUT COUNCIL HOLDS EXECUTIVE MEETING AT OUR LADY OF FATIMA CATHOLIC CHURCH, IGBOUKWU

Yesterday, the Anambra State Scout Council, ably led by the State Scout Commissioner, Comr. Adolphus Chukwudi Umeojiako, held its Executive Meeting at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, Igbokwu.

In his opening remarks, Comr. Chukwudi Umeojiako appreciated the Parish Priest, Our Lady of Fatima, Igboukwu, Very Rev. Charles Umeoji, the Episcopal Vicar, Ekwulobia Diocese & Dean, Igboukwu Denary as well as the Divisional Commissioner of Aguata Division, for successfully organizing the meeting. He further stated that Executive Meetings would continue to rotate across the various divisions in the state, adding that the next meeting is likely to be hosted by Nnewi Division.

The State Executives unanimously commended the President of the Council, His Excellency Dr. Onyekachukwu Ibezim, and the Deputy President, Rev. Fr. Jeremiah Nwosu, for their exemplary leadership, unwavering support, and guidance, which have continued to strengthen and sustain the Anambra State Scout Council.

The State Scout Commissioner also announced that the warrant of the Deputy President, Rev. Fr. Jeremiah Nwosu, has expired and that he has indicated his desire not to continue in office, citing declining strength and his inability to actively participate in most Scout activities and programmes due to old age.

Following this announcement, the State Executives unanimously recommended Barr. Ogbueri Chiedozie as the new Deputy President, subject to the approval of the State Scout Council, headed by the State President, His Excellency Dr. Onyekachukwu Ibezim, and subsequent appointment by the Chief Commissioner, Dr. Zack Ekanola.

The State Scout Commissioner also unveiled a new membership registration and data recapture initiative, which combines both digital and manual registration processes to update the records of all members across the state. He directed all Commissioners and Scout leaders to ensure maximum participation in the exercise to facilitate the development of a comprehensive and up-to-date state membership database.

As part of efforts to strengthen institutional relationships, Comr. Umeojiako directed all Divisional and District Commissioners to submit the names of the Mayors and Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) within their respective Local Government Areas and to schedule courtesy visits to them.

Other highlights of the meeting included:

• A briefing on the forthcoming Wood Badge Training Course in the state.
• An announcement of the National Youth Camp and International Youth Day Celebration scheduled to hold in Benin City, Edo State.
•A briefing on the Council’s welfare activities and financial expenditures.

In his closing remarks, the State Scout Commissioner encouraged all newly appointed officers to discharge their responsibilities diligently and in accordance with the standards and principles of the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM).

The meeting was well attended by Commissioners, Scout leaders, and members from across the state.
