Politics / Enugu Group Raises Alarm Over Destruction Of PDP Billboards by Babygiwa(f): 9:39pm On Oct 22, 2018 |
An advocacy group for the promotion of good governance in Enugu State, Youth Coalition for Good Governance, has raised the alarm over plans by members of an opposition political party in the state “to destroy all billboards erected in strategic locations in Enugu by teeming supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led state government”. A statement by the group’s coordinator and secretary, Hon. Ikechukwu Ibeh and Engr. Jude Onyema, revealed that the arrowheads of the plotters had a clandestine meeting in Enugu where it was agreed, among other “nefarious acts” to destroy billboards that were “voluntarily mounted by PDP supporters as a way of demonstrating their firm support for the party and its government in Enugu State”. They added that the alarm became necessary in view of the level of desperation being exhibited by the opponents of the government and “the need to expose their immoral plan against the high-performing and people-oriented administration in the state, which has continued to receive tremendous support and endorsements from the people of Enugu State”. The group added that the ulterior motive of those behind the plan, in their usual tradition, revolved around their selfish political interest in 2019 general elections, stressing that they are “very perturbed” over the unprecedented solidarity, goodwill and support the state government enjoys from the people as a result of the existing peace, security and good governance in the state. They therefore advised all PDP support groups and residents of the state to be vigilante and report any suspicious movement around the billboards located strategically across the state, to the security agencies for necessary action. http://revue.com.ng/enugu-group-raises-alarm-over-destruction-of-pdp-billboards/ |

Sports / AITEO Cup Finals: Gov Ugwuanyi Seeks Prayers, Support For Enugu Rangers FC by Babygiwa(f): 5:01pm On Oct 21, 2018 |
As the Enugu Rangers International Football Club battles Kano Pillars of Kano State in this year’s NFF/AITEO Federation Cup finals in Asaba, Delta State capital on Wednesday, October 24, Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has called on all enthusiastic fans of Rangers and indeed the Igbo nation, to offer special prayers for the club’s victory at the tournament. Gov. Ugwuanyi also appealed to residents of Enugu State and the entire South East geo-political zone, including traders in Onitsha, Enugu, Aba, Asaba, and others, to come out en masse at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba, to cheer the Flying Antelopes to victory. The governor noted that Enugu Rangers is not just an iconic football club, but also a national brand and one of the oldest clubs in Nigeria that has remained in the competition, and has equally continued to receive the admiration of its staunch supporters across the country, stressing that “Rangers FC belongs to all of us”. Gov. Ugwuanyi pointed out that it was because of God’s grace and the people’s unceasing prayers, goodwill and support that Enugu Rangers FC, under his administration, won the 2015/2016 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) trophy after 32 years, stating that the club’s victory next Wednesday will be another milestone achievement. He therefore, charged the club’s management, technical crew and players to tackle the game with all sense of commitment and dedication so that they will win the trophy which has eluded the team in the past two decades, saying: “As you go out there, remember what Enugu Rangers represent and do us proud. Enugu State is in the hands of God!”. #amokelouis http://revue.com.ng/aiteo-cup-finals-ugwuanyi-seeks-prayers-support-for-enugu-rangers-fc/ 2 Likes |

Politics / Peter Obi An Iconic Son Of Igboland - Gov. Ugwuanyi by Babygiwa(f): 6:31pm On Oct 19, 2018 |
*My VP candidacy about Ndigbo, Nigerians, not me, says Obi Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State on Friday played host to the Vice Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr. Peter Obi, describing him as an iconic son of Igboland, who has distinguished himself creditably in private and public dealings as a successful businessman and two-term former Governor of Anambra State. Governor Ugwuanyi, who described the PDP Vice Presidential Candidate as a formidable and trusted party man, warmly welcomed him and his entourage to the Government House, Enugu. The governor noted that Enugu is a PDP state and appreciated the people of the state for the massive support they gave the party in 2015, expressing confidence that with their endorsement, the 2019 election will also end in praise. He therefore, used the opportunity to congratulate the entire PDP family on the party’s “very successful and peaceful convention in Port Harcourt”. Earlier in his speech, Mr. Obi told the governor that he was at the Government House to consult him and seek the usual support of the state, stressing that his candidacy was not about him “as Peter Obi” but the people of the Igbo nation and Nigerians at large. The PDP Vice Presidential candidate, who was accorded a warm reception at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, by the state government delegation and other teeming supporters of the PDP led by the party’s Chairman, Hon. Augustine Nnamani and Chief of Staff to the Governor, Dr. Festus Uzor, expressed delight that “this is the first time in my political life that I am welcomed at the airport”. While applauding Gov. Ugwuanyi for his giant development strides in Enugu State, Obi pointed out that the success of his nomination depends on the leaders of the South East geo-political zone, pledging to bring meaningful development to the zone such as the Enugu – Onitsha expressway, when elected into office. His words: “So for me this nomination is about our own area. We can’t continue to say we are not getting this or that or that we are marginalized. These are some of the opportunities to re-address whatever we think is not in our positions. “I have served as governor, so people know a bit of my record. I am here to say to you (Ugwuanyi), I remain one of you. Everybody knows that I believe in Enugu. I believe this is our capital and it remains so. “Your Excellency, that is why I am here. I need your support and that of all of you. I assure that it is all about us and Nigerians, not about Peter Obi”. The Vice Presidential candidate later visited the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo, who welcomed him and noted how “extremely happy” he was to have him in audience at his residence in Enugu. Chief Nwodo said that “as a party, the PDP has responded to our yearnings and aspirations by reacting to our feeling of marginalization at the top echelon of our leadership of our great country by nominating you to vie for the position of the Vice President of Nigeria”. The President General disclosed that the Apex Igbo body will “very soon convene a meeting of the highest organ of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Ime Obi when all the political parties are to bring out their candidates and we will take a decision on what direction Igbos will take in the next election”. He extolled the leadership qualities of Obi saying that “your nomination is enchanting, your public conduct while you were a governor exemplifies you as a man of outstanding humility”, adding: “Your incorruptibility in government speaks volume. I look forward to when Ohanaeze will take a decision on which party the Igbos will vote for and I wish it will be you”. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=744927869184114&id=100010007227700 5 Likes 2 Shares

Politics / Ugwuanyi Support Group Sensitizes Public On Pvcs Collection by Babygiwa(f): 7:05pm On Oct 18, 2018 |
A support group for Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, known as “Voters Support Group for Gburugburu” has embarked on voter education/sensitization exercise aimed at advising registered voters with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), who have not collected their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) to go and do so ahead of the forthcoming general election. The group, which comprises “seasoned and experienced politicians, successful businessmen and academic gurus”, according to its coordinator, Hon. Ignatius Ishienyi, is committed to “a landslide victory” for Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi during the election to enable him complete the good works he has started in Enugu State. Speaking at the group’s education/sensitization programme for Enugu West Senatorial District, tagged “Operation Get Your PVC”, which was held in Oji River Local Government Headquarters, and attended by the governor, Hon. Ishienyi disclosed that the decision to embark on the exercise was to ensure that all registered voters in the state collect their PVCs. The co-coordinator added that the programme was also to reduce the number of invalid votes during the elections, saying that “voting correctly with the ballot sheet is one thing while folding it properly is another thing”. He said that the group’s mandate includes “touring the 17 local government areas of Enugu State using various instruments to sensitize and educate the people at the grassroots on the need to get their PVCs and also use them during the elections”. The group, which congratulated Gov. Ugwuanyi for emerging unopposed in the just concluded governorship primaries of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state, promised to continue to “vigorously pursue voter education in all the places we find ourselves, such as in the churches, schools, markets and families, among others. Other speakers at the event, such as the Deputy Speaker of the state’s House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Donatus Uzogbado, the Executive Chairmen of Ezeagu and Oji RiverL.G.As, Hon. Fred Ezinwa and Hon. Harrison Okeke, commended the initiative and urged the people to take advantage of the programme to go and collect their PVCs. #amokelouis https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=744309035912664&id=100010007227700

Politics / How Governor Ayade Transformed A Community In 72 Hours by Babygiwa(f): 12:11pm On Oct 16, 2018 |
10,000 PEOPLE STAND TO BENEFIT FROM 72 HOURS PHC MAKE OVER IN PHC ITO ODUKPANI, LOCATED IN BOUNDARY COMMUNITY WITH ABIA “ITS POSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE IN NIGERIA IF WE FIX ONE PRIMARY HEALTH CENTER EVERY 72HRS” The roof was falling off the Ito health Centre in Odukpani Local Government Area of Cross River State both inside and out. The counseling room where women came to discuss family planning, with its mismatched furniture, lacked privacy. Everything was wrong about the facility. Ito is a large community surrounded by Atan Onoyom village of Eniong Abatim and shares common boundary with Arochukwu village in Abia State. The only health facility serving over 10,000 people including Arochukwu residents is the delipadated Health Centre at Ito Clan with old fallen roof, no windows and doors. It was so bad that the community lost confidence and usage by the community was almost zero. But months after the launch of a a 72-hour PHC makeover challenge led by the Director General of Cross River State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, Dr Betta Edu, the facility was picked from many entry as the worse in Odukpani. the facility is now wearing a new look and people can access healthcare services. Since the challenge is mainly done by community volunteers, more than 40 youths volunteers were engaged to help revamp the facility. "The transformation has been incredible,” says Clan Head of Ito, His Royal Highness Edet O. Ebita during the courtesy call by the DG, Dr Betta Edu to inform him of the extent of job done so far in the facility. According to him, the environment now is more appealing with some equipment and new staff posted. I am joyous that women, children and everyone in the community will now get the proper health care they need, words are not enough to thank Ayade... we will support him all the way. Speaking, DG CRSPHCDA, Dr Betta Edu said 72-hour PHC makeover challenge was designed to repair that trust and help communities access health care. We mobilized communities and providers to work together to fix what’s wrong. The makeover itself may be quick, but months of planning and preparation goes into determining what needs fixing and how it will be accomplished. Together, we determine what the clinic needs and developed a plan to make the changes. We did it in 72hrs!!!!!!! The makeover itself began on Friday morning and will end on Monday. Workers on ground were seen painting and tiling while some were putting final touches to the roof and other physical improvements. Even the DG, Dr Betta Edu and some media personnels who were on ground joined the community volunteers to put final touches to the building. Some painted, some help in tiling while some were fixing the nets in the windows. The Community women cooked food for the workers or scrub the windows or whatever else is needed as their contribution. On Monday, the facility reopens with a celebration and a whole new look and feel. And everyone from the service providers to the community members, to the patients feel a sense of pride and ownership in the finished product. “The 72-hour PHC makeover improves the working conditions of the service provider while also improving the experience of clients that visit the facility. http://revue.com.ng/how-governor-ayade-transformed-a-community-in-72-hours/ 1 Like |

Politics / Ugwaunyi Second To None In Workers’ Welfare, Says TUC President by Babygiwa(f): 6:30am On Oct 16, 2018 |
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige and the National President of Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC), Comrade (Dr.) Bobboi Bala Kaigama, have commended Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State for his sterling performance in office and outstanding commitment to the welfare of the state’s workers. The duo made the commendations in their separate speeches during the ground breaking of 100 Housing Units for Nigerian workers by the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) in collaboration with Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress Nigeria (TUC), and Nigeria Employer’s Consultative Association (NECA), held at Ede-Oballa, Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State. Speaking at the epoch making event, the TUC National President stated that his leadership was proud of Gov. Ugwuanyi for not only paying workers’ salaries regularly but also for ensuring that they “have decent working environment”. Comrade Kaigama, who disclosed that Gov. Ugwuanyi is second to none in the provision of workers’ welfare in the South East geo-political zone, added that the governor has set the pace for other states to emulate. Describing Gov. Ugwuanyi as “a performer”, the labour leader told the governor that “Enugu State is working under your leadership and that is not only because you are a performer, but you exhibit the sense of performance with humility”. He maintained that the governor is “very humble and caring” and listens when it comes to challenges confronting the workers and the entire people of Enugu, saying: “If there is any governor that Nigerian workers can come up and work for his success particularly for his second term, we are proud to say that our members will work for you”. According to him, “we would say it anywhere because you have done it and you are doing it. We assure that the working class not only in Enugu State but also in the entire nation is supporting you on your efforts to deliver the dividends of democracy”. Appreciating Gov. Ugwuanyi for his efforts to give succor to the state workforce through provision of affordable accommodation, the TUC President urged Enugu workers to “reciprocate this gesture by ensuring that we continue to have a harmonious working relationship with your good government”. In his remark, the labour and employment minister, who described Ugwuanyi as “a governor who is paying workers’ salaries as at when due”, expressed delight at the massive infrastructural development in Enugu State, saying: “Thanks to the Gburugburu magic”. Dr. Ngige lauded the initiative of the FMBN in partnership with the state government and other concerned bodies to provide affordable housings for the workers as a welcome development, pointing out that the project is in line with tripartite policy of the federal government. Other speakers at the event such as the Managing Director of FMBN, Arc. Ahmed Musa Dangiwa, the Director General of NECA, Olusegun Oshinowo, and the Managing Director of Multidev Nigeria Ltd, Rev. Ugochukwu Chime, also applauded Gov. Ugwuanyi for promptly facilitating the provision of land for the project and ensuring its cost reduction, which they said make the houses more affordable for the state’s civil servants. In his address, Gov. Ugwuanyi, who welcomed the dignitaries to the state, stated that the project was in line with his administration’s promise to transform the socio-economic fortunes of the state and “to deploy government resources and services to create fair and equal opportunity for every willing citizen to make a living, create wealth and enjoy life in a peaceful and secure environment”. The governor added that “it also underscores our commitment to improving the welfare of the workers of Enugu State and to the provision of affordable housing for all citizens of the state”. He emphasized that the programme is a further testimony to the usefulness of synergy and cooperation between government, public institutions and the organized labour in the quest to improve the living standard of the people through rapid development of all sectors of the state’s economy. While thanking the FMBN for choosing Enugu State particularly Nsukka as one of the locations for the project, Gov. Ugwuanyi noted that the initiative was a welcome complement to the other efforts of his administration in developing the University town of Nsukka – “the second largest urban area in Enugu State and a University town founded over half a century ago”. #amokelouis http://revue.com.ng/ugwaunyi-second-to-none-in-workers-welfare-says-tuc-president/ |

Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Governor of Enugu State, which has an image, purportedly of ‘Jesus’ on it and erected on strategic locations in Enugu city by one of the governor’s teeming supporters, ostensibly to add his weight in the massive approval for his re-election. We sincerely appreciate the genuine intentions of the initiator of the said art work, who in all calculations were his measure to demonstrate his love for the governor. While it is important to state that the maker of the said work did it without our consent, we have however been able to draw his attention to the uproar already generated by his innocent intentions. He seemingly appreciates the concern this has caused to the public vis-à-vis the apparent varied interpretations and has even gone as far as removing same!

Politics / Enugu Indigenes In Kogi Transfer Voter’s Cards For Ugwunayi’s Re-election by Babygiwa(f): 7:07pm On Oct 11, 2018 |
Thousands of Enugu State indigenes, who reside and registered with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Kogi State, have transferred their voter’s cards to Enugu to enable them vote for Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi in the forthcoming governorship election. The elated indigenes of Enugu State, who paid a solidarity visit to Gov. Ugwuanyi at the Government House, Enugu, disclosed that their decision was in recognition of the governor’s “exceptional performance in office” and the need to give him the opportunity to complete the good works he has started in the state. They promised not only to return home during the forthcoming elections to vote massively for Gov. Ugwuanyi, but also to mobilize their relations and other dependants to equally vote for the governor, expressing delight that he has attracted development to their various communities. Presenting their stance, the leader of the delegation and President of the Association of Enugu Sate Indigenes in Kogi State, Chief Joseph Anikwe, stated that members of the group were impressed with “the prevailing atmosphere of peace, tranquility and progress in our dear Enugu State”. They added that they were also satisfied and proud that the governor serves God faithfully and cares for the people, especially the less privileged “through various people-oriented programmes and laudable development projects equitably spread across the wards, communities, local government areas and senatorial districts of the state”. The Enugu indigenes equally commended Gov. Ugwuanyi for effective and efficient management of the state’s meager resources to undertake massive infrastructural development in every nook and cranny of the state. They stressed that the governor has transformed the education sector; maintained peace and security; improved the civil servants’ welfare through regular payment of salaries and retirees’ pensions including the 13th month salary; provided good healthcare delivery, and maintained a very cordial relationship with various leaders in the state, through inclusive governance, among others. While expressing their “firm support and unalloyed loyalty” to the governor’s “dynamic, purposeful and grassroots oriented administration”, the Enugu indigenes, unanimously endorsed him for a second term in office, saying that “this visit is to add our voice to the clamour for you to return for a second term”. “Your Excellency, it is in view of all the above that we have paid this visit, not only to declare our full support for your second term in office, but also to carry the good message to our various domains to ensure that we cast our votes for you during the forthcoming elections, for the people to continue to enjoy the dividends of democracy under your good leadership”, they declared. Gov. Ugwuanyi, who thanked the state’s indigenes for the solidarity visit and support, described them as worthy ambassadors of Enugu State and urged them to continue to pray for the success of the state and his administration.
