As the election for the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA) approaches, the “9-Likeminds” group is gaining substantial traction among the association’s members. Members from the ANLCA Eastern Zone recently demonstrated overwhelming support for the group, reflecting a growing consensus within the organization.
In a significant show of unity, stakeholders from the Eastern Zone gathered at the Voyage Hotel in Port Harcourt to formally endorse the nine candidates representing the “9-Likeminds” group, also known as B-9. This group is rapidly becoming a popular choice among ANLCA members, particularly after securing strong backing from the Western Zone.
“The endorsement of the 9-Likeminds group by the Eastern Zone is a testament to our commitment to the future of ANLCA,” said Chief Mike Ebeatu, the Onne Chapter Chairman, who attended the event with Chapter Secretary Mr. Chinedu Ikenga. “Our zone has always stood for resoluteness and straightforwardness, and our choice today reflects those values.”
The gathering at the Voyage Hotel was marked by an atmosphere of solidarity and mutual loyalty between the candidates and the various chapters represented. Attendees expressed their confidence in the ability of the 9-Likeminds to lead effectively if elected to the BOT office.
The 9-Likeminds group is composed of the following candidates:
• Chief Kingsley Offor (Area 3, Port Harcourt)
• Sir Ernest Elochukwu Anthony (Area 1, Port Harcourt)
• Mustapha Taiwo (Area 1, Port Harcourt)
• Azeez Adedayo David (Apapa)
• Alh. Awonuga Olatunde (Apapa)
• Okafor Dennis Osadebe (Apapa)
• Momoh Sunday (Apapa)
• Mumuney Ademola (KLT Chapter)
• Utai Mohammed Sani (Kano Chapter)
Each candidate represents different chapters of the association, bringing a wide range of experience and expertise. Their campaign focuses on transparency, unity, and progress for ANLCA.
“We are confident that this alliance will lead to a resounding victory,” said an ANLCA member in attendance. “The 9-Likeminds are not just candidates; they are a team that embodies courage, solidarity, and a clear vision for our future.”
With the elections drawing nearer, the momentum behind the 9-Likeminds group continues to build, positioning them as a formidable force in the upcoming BOT election. The endorsement by the Eastern Zone is expected to further consolidate their standing and possibly sway undecided voters in other zones.
Hon. Obinna Nwachukwu, Public Relations Officer for Onne Seaport, remarked, “Victory is sure in sight for the 9-Likeminds. This show of support from the Eastern Zone is just the beginning. We believe in their leadership and vision for ANLCA’s future.”
As the election day approaches, all eyes will be on how this strong backing from multiple zones influences the outcome, shaping the future leadership of ANLCA.
