Mr. D. I. Njoku
The President General,
ADU, Home and Abroad.
Obibi Amumara Ezinihitte Mbaise.
November 7th 2003.
Dear Sir,
On behalf of the executives and members of Amumara Development
Union (ADU) America Inc., we bring you greetings. It is our prayer and hope
that all is well with Amumara.
Amumara Development Union (ADU) America Inc. as you
are aware, came into existence in May 2001 in the city of Baltimore, Maryland,
United State of America, as an umbrella organization for all Amumara indigenes
in the Americas. The ADU here was designed to help us come together as a group,
to encourage and support the spirit of community and service to Umaras in the
Americas and in Amumara. The objective of the organization is to promote and
project the dignity of Amumara by encouraging socio-economic and cultural
developments in Amumara.
Pursuant to this objective, the organization has
since its inception carried out the following projects;
1.
Donated
to Amumara Electricity Project.
2.
Donated
to Amumara Women Health Center Project.
3.
Purchased
and distributed School Supplies to Elementary School Students in Amumara.
4.
Conducted
Census Count for Amumara.
5.
Sponsored
traditional dance festival/competition for the villages in Amumara.
6.
It
must be note also that one of our regional branches (in the Northeastern part
of the U.S.) paid the cost of roofing the completed portion of Amumara Town
Hall.
In the same spirit, the organization (ADU America,
Inc.) during her 2003 general convention in the city of Elizabeth, New Jersey
in the United States,
resolved to encourage and support the completion of
the Amumara Civic Center.
Mr. President Sir, this letter is to officially inform
you and your cabinet that Amumara Development Union (ADU) America Inc. has
resolved to complete the Amumara Civic Center. And we humbly request that you
use your good offices to mobilize other ADU branches at home (in Nigeria) to
join us in our efforts towards a successful completion of this project, Amumara
Town Hall. Amumara is for all of us. Therefore, all hands must be on deck in
any efforts to make our dear hometown better. Also, we are concerned about the
security of people and property in Amumara.
Your
advice and insight on these issues and other issues relating to Amumara will be
highly valued.
Finally, Amumara is a very big and complex enterprise and it is our belief that in the management of this enterprise, all stakeholders should be involved. It is our observation that by omission or commission we, Amumara indigenes outside Nigeria are neither communicated nor involved when matters concerning Amumara are dealt with. We bring this observation to your notice, so that this oversight might be corrected. It is our hope that this letter will open up a communication link between us.
We thank you for your time and your anticipated cooperation.
God bless ADU, Home and Abroad.
God bless Amumara.
God bless ADU. America Inc.
Yours truly,
