The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate for Anambra West Constituency in the 2027 House of Assembly election, Engr. Fidelis Igwebuike Ekwenze (popularly known as Onyilinmagba), has praised Chief Sunday Nwokike, CEO of Uduakommiri Uchebuaku Concepts, for empowering youths through his raffle draw initiative.
Speaking during the third edition of the raffle draw held at 3-3 Junction Park, Nsugbe, Anambra East Local Government Area, Ekwenze said the initiative has not only rewarded participants with valuable prizes but has also created employment opportunities for over 60 youths.
He urged other well-meaning individuals to emulate Nwokike, noting that with a ticket of just ₦1,500, participants stand a chance of winning prizes worth between ₦15,000 and over ₦1 million. Ekwenze himself also emerged as one of the lucky winners.
More than 400 participants won various prizes, including household items, electronics and cash-equivalent gifts. The star prize, a brand-new motorcycle worth over ₦1 million, was won by Ejike Charles Chizoba of Nsugbe.
Some beneficiaries expressed gratitude to the organisers, describing the raffle draw as transparent and impactful.
Nwokike said the initiative, which began in December 2025, was inspired by his desire to alleviate hardship and put smiles on people’s faces. He stressed that transparency and fairness remain the foundation of the programme, adding that participants now come from several states across Nigeria due to growing public confidence.
