The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders in Nkanu East, Enugu State have commended the administration of the state governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.
The party also extolled the judgment of the Court of Appeal, Abuja division, which upheld the December 8, 2014 nomination of Ugwuanyi as the PDP candidate in the 2015 governorship election in the state.
The positions of the party followed a motion proposed by a party chieftain, Chief Greg Inyaba, and seconded by the former leader of the Enugu State House of Assembly, John Anichukwu at the party stakeholders meeting, which held at the local government headquarters, Amagunze, at the weekend.
Speaking on the spur of the motion, the council Chairman, Ikechukwu Ubagu, said the people were pleased with the efforts of the state government to ensure even development in the midst of scarce resources.
“We are elated that the Court of Appeal has just affirmed what we already knew, which is that Governor Ugwuanyi was the authentically nominated governorship candidate of the PDP. So, this verdict resonates with us, so that the good job, the various projects the governor is doing in our local government can continue to flow.
“It is also noteworthy that only a few days ago, the Senate Committee on States and Local Government announced that Enugu State was the best in terms of workers’ welfare, payment of salaries and utilisation of Federal Government bailouts.”
He called on the people of the state to continue to support and pray for the governor, noting that that Enugu remained “securely in the hands of God.”
