Advancing Peace and Social Development
On 14th day of December, 2024, Hopeland Community Initiative for Peace and Social Development (CIPSD), sponsored by the Foundation for Partnership Initiatives in the Niger Delta (PIND), embarked on an advocacy visit to HRH Obong Ita Okon, the revered monarch of Akamkpa Clan, Akpap Okoyong.
The visit, aimed at promoting the reduction of violence driven by harmful cultural practices in Akpap Okoyong Community, was a huge success. The clan head and council of chiefs warmly received the CIPSD team and graciously gave their blessings for the planned intervention project.
The traditional rulers commended PIND and CIPSD for their efforts in addressing the menace of harmful cultural practices in the community. They pledged their support for the project, recognising its potential to foster peace, stability, and social development in Akpap Okoyong.
