Speaking at the final leg of his declaration tour in Sungkomen ward on Thursday, Ozukum stated that the residents of Sungkomen ward had assisted him beyond expectations in the previous election. He urged the crowd to offer him their support once more so that he might cement his position with a thumping majority, an update from the party stated.
Ozukum stated that the only reason for the NDPP central leadership to give him the party ticket was because of their faith and trust in the constituency. He, therefore, sought unwavering support from the electorates as the central party leadership is keen to give the constituency an opportunity to be in the decision-making body.
In his welcome address, the chairman of Sungkomen ward stated that only one of the three candidates for 24 Angetyongpang AC would emerge as the winner. He has urged voters to assess each candidate's sincerity towards their residents. He also wished good luck to all the candidates in their campaigns until election day.

Earlier in the day, the candidate visited Salulamang village, wherein he has sought to renew their confidence and faith in his leadership so that he could serve as a bridge between the people of the 24 Angetyongpang AC and the government of Nagaland. (Dimapur, EMN)
