The people of Ejuona Aku in Igbo-Etiti Local Government Area of Enugu State have said that Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has set an unbeatable record in the history of the state as the only political leader who executed verifiable and meaningful development projects in Nsukka zone, stressing that no other leader did what the governor has done in the area.
The Ejuona Aku people pointed out that Nsukka zone (Enugu North Senatorial District) has produced leaders who served the district, Enugu State and Nigeria in various capacities, adding that it is pertinent to state that among those leaders, Gov. Ugwuanyi remains the pathfinder of modern transformation of the area to the delight of the people.
They unanimously endorsed Gov. Ugwuanyi’s candidature to represent Enugu North Senatorial District in the National Assembly in 2023 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged to massively vote for the governor, the governorship candidate of the PDP, Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, his running mate, Ifeanyi Ossai and other PDP candidates in the state.
Speaking when a delegation of Ejuona Aku community visited Gov. Ugwuanyi at the Government House, Enugu, the leader of the group, Dr. Ben Ezike, maintained that their people are overwhelmed by the governor’s steadfastness and faithfulness to the promise he made in his inaugural address to equip and modernise Nsukka, develop the rural areas and create more urban centres in the state for socio-economic expansion.
Dr. Ezike disclosed that what Gov. Ugwuanyi has done for the people of Nsukka zone is enormous and worthy of commendation by any unbiased mind who is a student of history regarding the neglect the people of the zone hitherto suffered in terms of infrastructure and human capital development.
He commended the governor for constructing a 5,000-seat capacity Township Stadium in Nsukka as well as his administration’s mind-blowing intervention in the construction of network of roads in the university town of Nsukka especially the Opi-Nsukka dual carriageway constructed to high standard and fitted with street and traffic lights including civil works that have tackled the flood menace at the Ugwuoye-Bishop Shanahan Hospital section of the road, after successive governments could not do it.
