*Breaking: Uzo-Uwani stakeholders pass vote of confidence on Gov. Mbah, Uzo-Uwani Council Boss, Ezugwu* | Blissful Affairs Online
Stakeholders in Uzo-Uwani LGA of Enugu State have passed a vote of confidence on Dr. Peter Mbah, the governor of Enugu State, and Barr. Chijioke Ezugwu, the council Chairman of Uzo-Uwani.
The resolution was made during a high-level meeting convened on Wednesday by the council chairman at the Ikenga Hotel, Nsukka, to deliberate on the forthcoming state and local government congresses and discuss other issues relating to the well-being of the council.
The stakeholders, who took turns to speak on the level of development at the state and LGA, lauded Governor Mbah for his leadership style, which centers on the delivery of democracy dividends.
They highlighted the construction of the 9th Mile-Iwolo-Umulokpa road, the ongoing dualization of Abakpa-Ugwogo-Opi-Nsukka Road, Ikenga-Obimo-Nkpologu-Adani road which work will soon commence, and other achievements in the health and education sectors, insisting that the achievements of Gov. Mbah’s Administration and that of Ezugwu are too pronounced to be denied.
The forum advised opposition elements to engage in constructive criticism instead of resorting to name-calling and spreading fake news against the two governments.
They recalled the efforts of the governor and the council chairman in fighting insecurity at both levels, stating that the people of Uzo-Uwani can now sleep with their eyes closed.
The stakeholders endorsed Barr. Chijioke Ezugwu’s second-term bid, maintaining that one good turn deserves another.
In response, the Chairman of Uzo-Uwani, Barr. Chijioke Ezugwu, appreciated the stakeholders for their unwavering support for the administration of Governor Peter Mbah and his administration, emphasizing the importance of peace, unity, and cohesion in every administration.
Ezugwu said the insecurity, which has been reduced drastically in the council today, was a result of the numerous supports the council was getting from the state government.
He promised to continue giving his best in the area of security and the delivery of democracy dividends.
“I thank you all for your support and prayers. That we are where we are today is because you are there. As a government, we have been doing all we can to ensure that we deliver democracy dividends to our people. Before now, our farmers hardly went to their farms, but today, under this administration of Peter Mbah, Uzo-Uwani is safe. He has given us a lot of support to fight insecurity, and the men of Operation Kwechiri Special Squad are relentless in protecting you,” Ezugwu said.
