Governor of Enugu State, Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, swears in 17 Local Government Council Chairmen |
“I monitored your campaign pledges, and I encourage you to start fulfilling them immediately. Our mantra, “Tomorrow is Here,” speaks to the urgency and immediacy of the work ahead. Ndi Enugu are counting on us to solve the challenges that stand in the way of our progress without delay. The tomorrow we envision is within our grasp to the extent that we are able to innovate and disrupt the status quo that no longer serves our present needs and aspirations.
I want to emphasise that it’s no longer acceptable for our chairmen to work remotely from the city. You must relocate to your LGAs and be with your people. We will have zero tolerance for crime and insecurity, because true development is only possible in a peaceful and secure environment.
The people must be at the epicenter of your governance model. You have to banish feelings of alienation and deliver democracy dividends to all.
Let’s work together to generate wealth, create jobs, and provide basic amenities across our local governments. The partnership between our administration and the local councils is strong. Let’s join hands to make tangible improvements for our people, including funding key projects that empower our local governments. I believe in your capacity to deliver, and I am eager to see the progress we will make.”
