This year’s celebration of the 61st anniversary of Nigeria’s independence and the celebration of the Silver Jubilee of the establishment of Ebonyi State is a little unique and different, as Governor Umahi is duly recognized around the world. whole as an enigma, an exceptional administrator, a visionary, an emancipator and the governor in office. by God to positively change the fortune of Ebonyi and all the Southeast like the David of our time.
Ebonyi State has come of age
She felt that the state of Ebonyi, at the age of 25, regardless of the state of its creation and its delay in the past, had come of age to take its rightful place among the courtesy states of Nigeria through the remarkable impacts and innovative leadership that the current governor has exerted on the leadership of the state.
Ebonyi and all Ebonyians are truly in a spirit of celebration because apart from celebrating Nigeria’s 61st Independence Anniversary and the 25th Anniversary of the founding of Ebonyi State, Ebonyians are also celebrating the remarkable achievements of the Governor Umahi over the past six years in the fields of health care, education, security, launching one of the best airports in Nigeria, agriculture, maintenance and dualisation of federal roads, especially from Abakaliki to Enugu and Abakaliki at Afikpo Express Roads, construction of Nigeria’s largest state shopping center, prompt payment of salaries to civil servants and retirement of retirees, plan to employ more than 5,000 civil servants as many other states plot on how to lay off most of their workers, an infrastructural revolution visible even to the blind. “Ebonyi is truly fortunate to have an enigma and an innovative leader as governor who can easily be assumed that the modernization of Ebonyi State was achieved in our lifetime thanks to Apostle David Nweze Umahi .
The state of Ebonyi before the arrival of Umahi and its impact
Ebonyi State in the eyes of the world was an infested state and known for the threat of Guinea worms and waterborne diseases with a local government secretariat as the seat of government, but since the arrival of Governor Umahi, all those negative thoughts about Ebonyi State has become a thing of the past, “Those who visited Ebonyi State before this infrastructure bulldozer arrived cannot know the state if they visit state now, because changes in state are even more visible to blind people. Besides the approval of the request of the administration of Governor Dave Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi State to build an international airport by the federal government at a time when the need to boast of the economy of the state and the region becomes imperative, ”Ms. Monica said.
She said: “Governor Umahi is known to be the first governor of Ebonyi State to embark on the construction of more than fifteen gigantic airlifts in the state, ten of which have been completed while five are in progress. course of completion. To make the state a truly modern state, Governor Umahi began construction of the First Olympic Stadium and the Ebonyi Ring Road connecting almost all the seats of local government in the state. Construction of one of the best government residences in Nigeria is complete and ready to go into service.
“The Ecumenical Center initiated and completed by the Umahi administration stands out as one of the best places of worship in all of West African countries. Seat of state government, including major cities in the state All major roads leading to major cities and local government headquarters are all under construction.
The Water-Scheme in the state is being developed to provide water to all parts of the state, along with all of the other major developments that have made the state the most developing economy in the world. Nigeria. All these feats to make Ebonyi State one of the most developed states in Nigeria, Dr Umahi marked another first among all the governors who have ruled Ebonyi State to become the Vice President South-South of the Governors Forum and lead the South-East. Governors Forum. ”
Lady Monica Eze AKA Ada Ebonyi further stated that if what makes a modern state are the provisions of a system of supplying quality drinking water, good roads, electricity, good infrastructure , then one can safely conclude that with all that Governor Umahi has achieved in the space of six years, he is truly the catalyst and creator of the modern Ebonyi State. She congratulated Governor Umahi and all the Ebonyians on this occasion for the celebration of both the independence of Nigeria and the creation of Ebonyi State and especially the rapid development of the State.
Special congratulations and thanks are also due to the late Head of State, General Sank Abachi, for his foresight in the creation of Ebonyi State 25 years ago.
Umahi’s zeal to transform Ebonyi grew out of his experience as a former PDP in-state chairman and deputy governor. His policy of confidence on industrialization was key, which he began with the construction of three industrial clusters across the three senatorial zones aimed at developing each sector. These include agriculture, technology and human empowerment. As an engineer he engaged new technologies in constructions with particular reference to roads where 8 inch concrete roads began to appear in the state. Parks, markets and streets began to sport new looks. Pedestrian crossings, flyovers, lampposts, water fountains were also built to change the face of Ebonyi, turning it into one of Nigeria’s fastest growing economies.
The empowerment of young people and widows has taken on a new form in the state, having a positive impact on the lives of many people. Today, many young people who were just street urchins have become labor employers thanks to the Umahi administration’s rich empowerment programs.
Reactions to the exploits of Governor Umahi
Reacting to some of Governor Umahi’s great exploits over the past five years, Lady Comfort Obi, the publisher of Source magazine and a very powerful Pen Pusher in Nigeria stressed in one of her treatises, “In all fairness to Umahi , he has come so far, well done as Governor Ebonyi. He encouraged agriculture, in particular, in the area of rice production. Ebonyi rice ranks among the best in the country. I don’t know much about what he has done in the yam production business, but I proudly ask my yam customer for Abakailiki yams. But where Umahi has definitely excelled the most is in providing physical infrastructure, especially roads. Other than Anambra State where Peter Obi excelled in road building, no other governor in the southeast compares to Umahi in this region. Little by little, Umahi bequeathed quality roads to Ebonyi. Umahi has also excelled in the field of education, awarding scholarships to hundreds of Ebonyians in relevant fields of study. Thanks to him, Abakailiki, which as the state capital looked worse than a seat of local government, experienced a complete turnaround. It looks paf ”
Umahi and national politics
With all of these feats, I can proudly say as Ada Ebonyi that if access to power is based on feats and the ability of leaders to turn a seemingly dark age into a very bright future, Engr. Dave Nweze Umahi is now fully prepared for a higher position in Nigerian politics.
I am happy to note that my perspective matches the prediction of an American, Dr Paul Owen from the city of California who shouted for joy after watching a video clip on my YouTube channel showing the silent but very significant revolution. that Dr David Nweze Umahi ignites in Ebonyi State and could not help but postulate: “Umahi deserves to be the president of Nigeria in 2023 but unfortunately most Nigerians are blind” .
While I differ from Owen’s perspective on most Nigerians being blind as stated above, I have to agree with his submission that Umahi is now well prepared to get Nigeria out of the woods and its challenges. current economic and political issues.
These and many other elements underscore the basis on which one of the prominent sons of the Southeast, Chief Arthur Eze, once advised President Muhammad Buhari to “look no further than the governor of the state.” of Ebonyi for a Nigerian president of Igbo mining if, and when the time comes. Apostle Dave Nweze Umahi, Nigeria’s wisest governor has come of age and it is time for Nigeria to move forward with him ”. All these feats to make Ebonyi State one of the most developed states in Nigeria are the initiatives of Apostle Umahi, divinely inspired to lead the state on the path of progress and reposition it to this enviable height. eagerly awaited.
Governor Umahi is a wizard, riddle, poster boy and revelation of this dispensation and your visit to Ebonyi will convince you.
Umahi’s presidency is becoming imperative, especially now that on the basis of fairness and the spirit of fairness, all Nigerians are of the opinion that the next president must come from Igbo extraction.
Conclusion
With all these feats, I can say with joy and pride that Governor Umahi is the David of Ebonyi, the wisest governor of Nigeria according to Governor Ikepazu of Abia State, this winner of the Zik Award for leadership. should take a higher post in Nigeria, as demonstrated by his commitment. to make EBONYI State one of the fastest growing economies in Nigeria today.
Finally, I warmly congratulate Governor Umahi and all Ebonyians on this occasion of the celebration of the independence of Nigeria, the creation of the State of Ebonyi and, above all, the accelerated development of the State of Ebonyi, under the visionary and people-oriented leadership of Governor David Nweze Umahi.
Congratulations to Ndi-Ebonyi!
