DIMAPUR — The 43rd Angami Gazetted Officers’ Krotho (AGOK) general conference was held at AGOK Badze, Meriema, Kohima district, on Friday.
According to a DIPR report, in his address, peace activist and social reformer Niketu Iralu mentioned that Nagas are threatened with immense crisis and therefore they have to be ready to response to the size and complexity of the crisis.
He also said that Nagas must not forget that the crisis threatening them is the local and regional manifestations of the continental and global crisis.
He said that today, the APO and its influential affiliated bodies, such as AGOK, have gone beyond merely discussing issues as they did in the past. Instead, they are working to develop new ideas, plans, and actions that the entire society must understand, accept, and actively participate in to collectively confront the unprecedented crisis and ensure progress into the future.
Iralu also advised people to understand the signs of the changing times and to learn how to respond to them, as the world is transforming rapidly and often unpredictably.

AGOK president Thejao Vihienuo, in his address, acknowledged AGOK for working tirelessly and strategically for the betterment and welfare of the public, and for paving the way for the youth.
He stated that in today’s rapidly changing society, protecting our environment has become a top priority. He also observed that the era of artificial intelligence and robotics is advancing swiftly and has the potential to replace and surpass human capabilities.
Therefore, he urged leaders and intellectuals to provide proper guidance and to think seriously about the future of the youth.
He further emphasised that “children are our most priceless possession,” and as the most intellectual organisation among the Angamis, the AGOK should guide, protect, and encourage them.
Vihienuo added that the AGOK is one of the most important opinion-making and influential organisations. He therefore urged its members to work tirelessly and in unity with the APO for the betterment of the people.
In the conference, AGOK general secretary Nongozo Rikha gave a detailed report on the activities undertaken from 2024 to 2026. The general secretary of SAGOK, and convenor, audit committee, Medoseho Sothu, presented the audit report.
Later, the house declared that the members of the previous tenure would be retained to continue for the period 2026 to 2028.
