Good Governance: Group Hails Gov. Mbah, Urges More Commitment

A non-partizan and grassroots oriented civil society organisation, Concerned People of Enugu State, says the only way the government of His Excellency, Barr Dr. Peter Mbah will succeed is through constant positive engagement with the grassroots and regular citizens of Enugu state.

This was contained in a statement issued on Thursday at the end of its executive meeting, and by its Chairman/Convener, Mr. Peter Ezih,

The organisation commended governor Mbah, for the wonderful job he has done so far in Enugu State and also urged him not to relent as he works to fulfill all that he promised good governance hungry Ndi-Enugu in his manifesto, during the 2023 governorship elections campaigns.

The organisation said, it has noted with deep concern, the spate of unprofitable, malicious and destructive criticism which some self serving politicians and their foot soldiers have constantly unleashed at the government, not minding how spurious, injurious and demoralising those may be to the development and social well-being of the state.

The group urged the Governor’s praise singers to whittle down their political trumpets and not hype the governor to a frenzy of no return, making the governor develope a false sense of achievement that will deprive Ndi-Enugu of the God ordained dividends of democracy due them through this administration.

The statement further said that the best way to get the government to be alive to its responsibility was only through constructive engagement, and not through self serving wicked propaganda or undeserved praise singing.

The statement said, “having dispassionately and critically examined activities of His Excellency’s commissioners, head of ministries and agencies over the past nine to ten months, urged them to live up to the expectations for the overall development of the state.

The statement urged the governor to monitor the activities of his aides to ensure that they are working towards the realization of his vision of moving the state from a 4.4 Billion to 40 Billion dollars economy.

The association wishes the governor and all the state’s functionaries well in their bid to elevate Enugu to an enviable height in committee of states in Nigeria.
