Hon. Nnanna Nwangele, the special assistant to the Governor of Ebonyi State on airport security, has observed the numerous achievements of the current administration of Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru to the Ebonyi people, saying that he believes the impacts would last for ages.
Nwangele, who expressed his admiration for the governor as he marks his fiftieth birthday, described him as a visionary leader who is focused and determined to ensure that Ebonyians are lifted out of poverty through his empowerment programs, among others.
He commended Governor Nwifuru for awarding local and international scholarships to over 1000 Ebonyians, saying it will go a long way to expose them to the world and bring in fresh ideas that would benefit the future generations.
“I must use this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to our God-given governor, His Excellency, R. T. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, for his visionary leadership and the impacts that he is already making in our dear Ebonyi State.
“Education is the bedrock of development all over the world, and in his own wisdom, His Excellency has awarded local and international scholarships to our people; this, I believe, is a generational blessing that will not be erased.
“Look at the way he has revitalised the Ebonyi pipe production company and the state-owned hatchery that now generates revenue for the state and the state university; he is currently building an ICT university, and he has empowered our youths in different sectors. These things cannot be ignored,” Nwangele said.
In the area of security, Nwangele commended him for initiating peace in crisis-affected communities in the state as well as the establishment of effective security architecture in the capital city and noted that crime has drastically reduced in the state ever since Governor Nwifuru assumed office.
“As a peaceful leader, His Excellency has established a working security architecture in the state capital; that is the reason why you don’t hear about criminal activities here in terms of communal clashes. His Excellency just released over 159 detained suspects in connection with the Effium and Ezza Effium crisis.
“This is a demonstration of his intentions of establishing lasting peace in our state. He has made positive intervention in every area or community where they used to be before now, and I can confidently wish to refer to him as a peaceful builder,” he added.
Nwangele called on Ebonyians to support the government and expect more dividends of good leadership under the “People’s Charter of Needs” administration because, according to him, Governor Nwifuru has shown beyond reasonable doubt that he is determined to change the narratives for the benefit of his people.
