The workers, who were led by the Chairman of Enugu State Universal Basic Education Board (ESUBEB), Ikeje Asogwa, also appreciated Ugwuanyi for the choice and emergence of Ndubuisi Mbah and Ifeanyi Ossai as the governorship and deputy governorship candidates of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, respectively.
They declared their support for Ugwuanyi who is the candidate of the PDP for Enugu North senatorial district, Mbah, Ossai and other candidates of the PDP in the 2023 elections, promising to work round the clock and mobilise the electorate during the electioneering process to ensure landslide victories for the PDP and its flag-bearers.
Speaking at the event, Asogwa told Ugwuanyi, who was with t Mbah, Ossai and the state Chairman of the party, Augustine Nnamani, that the workers came on a solidarity visit “to applaud you for the good works you have been doing in the state.”
He added that the visit was also “to thank you for our brothers, Mbah and Ossai that emerged from the last PDP governorship primary in Enugu State.”
Asogwa, director general of Enugu State PDP Campaign Organisation, said the workers were poised to ensure Mbah and Ossai win the governorship election in 2023 “to move the state to greater heights.”
Executive Secretary, Local Government Pensions Board, Nana Ogbodo, reiterated the workers’ unflinching support for Ugwuanyi, Mbah, Ossai, and other candidates of the PDP.
Ogbodo extolled Ugwuanyi’s sterling leadership qualities, describing him as an unassuming, peace-loving and God-fearing leader with a lot of accomplishments, stressing that the workers are fortunate to work under his result and people-oriented administration.
“We have had the fortunes to work with a governor (Ugwuanyi) who has enormous powers yet he is humble. You are a master of science of human relationship. You have been a perfect source of good and you are a national champion of peace and humility and we are proud to work with you,” he said.
In their separate speeches, Chairman of Nike Lake Resort, Enugu, Ugochi Madueke and the Managing Director of Enugu State Waste Management Agency, Amaka Anajemba, expressed gratitude to Ugwuanyi for empowering the women of the state in various capacities, reassuring him that the workers are solidly behind his administration and the candidates of the PDP.
