The Enugu State House of Representatives Caucus has commended Governor Peter Ndubuisi Mbah for his impressive performance over the past two years, describing his development strides as transformative.
In a midterm assessment statement issued on Sunday by the Caucus leader, Hon. Nnolim Nnaji, the federal lawmakers highlighted Mbah’s achievements in key sectors including road infrastructure, security, revitalisation of dormant state-owned enterprises, and completion of previously abandoned projects.
The Caucus expressed admiration for the governor’s efforts, particularly his commitment to agricultural development and education, noting that these investments are crucial to boosting the economy and creating job opportunities.
“We are further satisfied that the state government’s programmes and projects, be they in education, agricultural investments, and road infrastructure, health sector, among others, are being evenly spread across the 260 wards in the state in line with the governor’s inclusive development model,” the statement read.
Citing specific ongoing initiatives, the Caucus pointed to the wide-reaching infrastructure projects taking shape across Enugu.
“The ongoing construction of 260 Smart Green Schools, 260 Type 2 Primary Healthcare Centres, the 260 Farm Estates, transport infrastructure, roads, tourism infrastructure, and numerous other foundations being speedily laid are clear signs that the governor’s promise to grow the state’s economy from $4.5 billion to $30 billion in eight years are realisable.”
The lawmakers also hailed the Mbah administration for prioritising both local and foreign investments, crediting the improved security and infrastructure as major enablers for business growth in the state.
“We equally commend the governor’s drive for local investment and foreign direct investment, which are yielding good results because of the security and infrastructure that have been put in place to make Enugu safe and conducive for business,” they said.
They further praised the urban transformation taking place in the capital, noting the extensive construction activity underway throughout the city.
The Caucus acknowledged “an ambitious and aggressive programme of urban renewal across all the zones of Enugu metropolis, which have turned the entire Enugu metropolis into one massive construction site.”
The lawmakers urged Enugu residents to continue supporting Governor Mbah as he advances his developmental vision for the state.
