Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 72043, member: 636"] Francis Nwifuru, who leads Ebonyi State as governor, has been named to head the Board of Trustees for an organization representing Nigeria's past state assembly leaders. The group brings together former speakers and deputy speakers from all 36 states to advance democratic principles and support national progress. Nwifuru entered the Ebonyi State House of Assembly in 2011, served as speaker for eight years starting in 2015, and later won election as the state's fourth civilian governor. During his time presiding over the legislative chamber, he worked to align governmental policies with public priorities by maintaining cooperative relationships between lawmakers and executive officials, according to a statement from his media office.
