SouthEast City Boy Movement Delivers on Promise: Over 3,000 Members Receive Empowerment Grants as Chief Obinna Iyiegbu Drives Grassroots Impact

In a decisive demonstration of integrity-driven leadership, the South-East Directorate of the City Boy Movement (CBM) has officially commenced the disbursement of financial grants to thousands of members across the region. The initiative fulfills a major pledge made by the Director of CBM South-East, Chief Dr. Obinna Iyiegbu (Cubana), the Chairman of the Cubana Group, following the movement’s strategic mobilization and engagement in Owerri.

At a time when public skepticism often surrounds political and social movements, the City Boy Movement has set a new benchmark for accountability. True to the promise made by Chief Iyiegbu, over 3,000 participants who traveled to Owerri for the regional convergence have now confirmed receipt of a ₦50,000 empowerment grant each.

Amb. Elijah Onyeagba, the Head of Secretariat for CityBoy Movement South-East, officially confirmed the development in a statement released to journalists, noting that the disbursement is aimed at easing economic pressures and fostering micro-economic growth among the movement’s grassroots base.
