Peace is a fundamental pillar for the progress and development of any society. It is the foundation upon which a nation can thrive and reach its full potential.

In recognition of this, the Peace in South East Project, in collaboration with Xtreme Fitness with De Latinos Concept, recently activated the Sports and Entertainment pillar of the Initiative through an exhilarating road walk.

The deputy speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt hon Benjamin Okezie Kalu, was delighted to participate in this dynamic event, which provided an opportunity for him to engage with the energetic youths of Abia State.

The road walk, held on Saturday May 4th, saw a massive turnout of youths from all over Abia State.

It was a sight to behold as they marched with enthusiasm, determination, and a common goal – to advocate for peace in our region.

This event is just the first of many activities planned under the Sports and Entertainment pillar of the Peace in South East Project.

Rt hon Benjamin Okezie Kalu, in his address to the participants, commended the youths of Abia State for their enthusiastic participation.

He emphasized the importance of peace in our society and how it impacts the progress of our state, region, and nation as a whole.

As a leader and advocate for peace, he encouraged the youths to continue to uphold peace and strive towards a more prosperous future for our society.

The Sports and Entertainment pillar of the Peace in South East Project aims to use these dynamic and engaging activities to bring together youths from different backgrounds and foster a sense of unity.

By promoting sports and entertainment, this pillar encourages friendly competition, team spirit, and a sense of community among the participants.

The road walk was also a platform for raising awareness about the Peace in South East Project.

As the news of this event spreads, more and more people will become aware of the Initiative and its goals. This will help to garner support and build a strong network of individuals and organizations committed to promoting peace in our region.

The Peace in South East Project is a collaborative effort between the government, private sector, and civil society organizations. It is a commendable initiative that shows the commitment of all stakeholders towards achieving peace in our society.

The Sports and Entertainment pillar, in particular, highlights the importance of involving the youth in peacebuilding efforts.

This is a crucial step in ensuring a sustainable and peaceful future for our region.
