Senator Kalu will lead the committee in overseeing the South-East Development Commission’s activities, focusing on objectives such as civil restitution, addressing erosion, restoring security, and improving infrastructure.

 

The Senate also confirmed the leadership of the 18-member SEDC board, with Dr. Emeka Nworgu as Chairman and Hon. Mark Okoye as Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer. Other confirmed board members include Ugochukwu H. Agballah, Hon. Okey Izenwa, Chief Hyacinth Ikpor, Chidi Echeazu, Ifeanyi Agwu, Nasiru Usman, Hamma Adama Ali, Kumo Edward David Onoja, and Orure Kufre Inima.
