Engr. Enyivigbo And Governor Mbah,
Hon. Engr. Johncross Enyivigbo, a former Labour Party candidate for the Enugu State House of Assembly has declared his full support for Governor Peter Mbah’s recent move to the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing it as a bold and strategic decision for the future of Enugu State.
Engr. Enyivigbo, who contested to represent Igbo Etiti East Constituency in the 2023 general elections, stated that the governor’s defection aligns with the broader interests of the state, especially in attracting federal presence and fostering developmental partnerships.
In a statement made available to DAILY GAZETTE on Wednesday, the former candidate lauded Governor Mbah’s leadership style and vision, noting that his decision to join the ruling party at the federal level was a necessary step to unlock greater opportunities for the people of Enugu.
“The move to the APC is not about politics as usual, it is about positioning Enugu State for greater relevance and benefit within the Nigerian federation,” Enyivigbo said.
“As a young leader committed to the progress of my constituency and the state at large, I stand solidly behind Governor Mbah.”
DAILY GAZETTE recall that Engr. Enyivigbo had earlier returned to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) shortly after the 2023 elections in a show of support for Governor Mbah’s leadership and his commitment to inclusive governance.
Now, with the governor’s realignment to the APC, Enyivigbo says he is ready to mobilize grassroots support across Igbo Etiti East and beyond.
“We must rise above partisanship and embrace any platform that offers the best prospects for our people,”
“Governor Mbah has shown courage and I am confident that this new political chapter will bring accelerated growth and development to Enugu.” he added.
