Ebonyi State

I consider the Former Governor of Ebonyi very smart and foresighted for joining the APC at the time he did. No doubt, the dividends of democracy are evidently visible in Ebonyi State.

We need more Igbo heavy weights to explore the possibilities in APC. We need to strategically position Our Region to grow far beyond emotions and sectionalism. It is time to join *Umahi* to bring more infrastructure to Southeast.

*Ndi Igbo deserve far more than what we are currently getting and we can not get more if we continue to shut ourselves out of the corridors of power.*

As it is today in Nigerian Political atmosphere, we need to rise as a people and intentionally embrace logic instead of emotions.

Ndi-Igbo must rise beyond sentiments and self-defeat. We must think beyond the boundaries of our long-lasted emotions and self-pity.

Think about it.

Abagworo:
Southeast doesn't need development commission. What Southeast needs is release of Nnamdi Kanu and end of unnecessary waste of lives.

It's obvious that you are not properly informed about what he and some of our lgbo leaders are doing concerning the plight of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
While that is going on progressively, South-East needs to be developed too.

NLegendforte:
More greese to his elbow

God's enabling Grace is all we pray for him

cassyrooy:
Fire on. Ala Igbo Ga Dinma

He will make it happen. He has the capacity

mancoconut:
Ifeanyi Ubah seems to be the new face of leadership in Alaigbo, and he's a young visionary with a solid track record. May Go0d bless and sustain his efforts.

AMEN and AMEN!

SOUTH-EAST DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION ESTABLISHMENT BILL, PASSES FIRST READING

SOUTH-EAST DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION ESTABLISHMENT BILL, PASSES FIRST READING

...as Sen Ifeanyi Ubah consolidates on his plans towards the recovery of Igbo Economy.

Yesterday at plenary, the South-East Development Commission (Establishment) Bill, 2023 (SB.129) which was sponsored by me passed the First Reading. It should be noted that the earlier version of the Bill was denied presidential assent by the past administration and that motivated me to introduce a fresh version of it with provisions that will convince the Senate and the President to support it and sign it into law respectively. This fresh version of the Bill is aimed to establish a Commission that will focus on the development of the South-East region of Nigeria which has been historically marginalized and has faced various challenges in terms of infrastructure, healthcare, and economic development.

The South-East Development Commission (SEDC) when established, will also be responsible for coordinating and implementing development projects and programs in the region. It will also work closely with state governments, local communities, and other relevant stakeholders to identify the needs and priorities of our region and develop strategies to address them. The Commission will also have the power to receive and manage funds from the federal government, international donors, and other sources for the purpose of implementing development projects. It will also have the authority to enter into partnerships and collaborations with other organizations and institutions to leverage resources and expertise.

Furthermore, the SEDC will be tasked with promoting and facilitating investments in the South-East region and work to attract both local and foreign investors by creating a conducive business environment, providing incentives, and offering support services. Additionally, it will prioritize the development of critical infrastructure such as roads, bridges and water resources, and will also focus on improving access to quality education and healthcare services, as well as promoting agriculture and other economic sectors in the region.

The establishment of the South-East Development Commission is a significant step towards addressing the developmental challenges faced by the South-East region of our great nation. It will provide a platform for coordinated and targeted interventions that will contribute to the overall socio-economic development of the region.

I am confident that this Bill will receive the necessary support from my colleagues and receive presidential assent. I have relayed the details of the Bill to them and I am very hopeful that they will support it.

ImmaculateJOE:
My community, Azigbo is yet to feel any of his infrastructural touch..

If you are close to him, help me and my community tell him that the Road that connects my community to Nnewi Town, was awarded (by Anambra State government) around 2017, till today nothing has been done on that road.

The Solar street lights he shared was corned by some few personals.

Also, help me to tell him that my community and the rest of Anambra South needs Prepaid metres and not the old archaic way of asking each household to pay 2k per month on a electricity we do not see.

Noted, but please whenever something is allotted to your community, and few individuals diverts it as you said concerning the solar streetlights, make sure that you notify the appropriate authorities or persons concerned for proper action

SoNature:
No senator, dead or alive, builds infrastructural projects in his district like Senator Ifeanyi Ubah. This man is probably going to be a senator forever because nobody can defeat him.

SOUTH EAST HOLDS ECONOMIC AND SECURITY SUMMIT IN OWERRI, IMO STATE.

... collaborating for a secure and prosperous future is a necessity for the Southeast.

Yesterday in Owerri, I attended the 2023 edition of the South-East Security and Economic Summit. Commenting on the event which was also attended by Governors of Imo, Anambra, Enugu and Abia States as well as the Deputy Governor of Ebonyi State who represented his governor and other political leaders of the geopolitical zone, I stressed the need for collaboration and synergy among the South-East states in order to address the security and economic challenges facing the region. I also highlighted the importance of security in attracting investments and promoting economic growth and emphasized the need for the governors and all elected representatives to work together in sharing intelligence, coordinating security operations, and implementing effective strategies to combat crime and insurgency in the region.

I also reiterated the need for governors in the region to study the system I invented in Nnewi and environs, and embrace native intelligence in tackling insecurity, and called for the establishment of a regional economic development commission that would coordinate and drive economic initiatives in the South-East. This commission would also facilitate collaboration among the states, attract investments, and promote economic integration within the region.

Furthermore, I discussed the potential of the South-East region in terms of economic development and job creation and urged the governors to prioritize infrastructure development, promote entrepreneurship, and create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive. I also emphasized the need for the South-East states to leverage their unique cultural heritage and tourism potentials to attract both local and international investors. I encouraged the governors to invest in tourism infrastructure, promote cultural festivals, and market the region as a tourist destination.

Security of lives and property is essential for economic growth and development. When people feel safe and secure in their homes and communities, they are more likely to invest in businesses, buy homes, and engage in economic activities. This creates a positive cycle of economic growth, as increased investment and consumer spending lead to job creation and higher incomes. It also attracts foreign direct investment, as businesses are more likely to invest in places or regions with stable and secure environments. Security is also crucial for the functioning of critical infrastructure and services. Industries such as transportation, energy, and telecommunications rely on secure systems to operate efficiently and disruption or threat to these systems can have severe economic consequences.

As we work towards creating a peaceful and secure geopolitical zone, ndị Igbo should always work closely with constituted authorities to make the vision a dream come true.

Senate resume plenary with the screening of CBN Governor and deputy nominees

Senate screens CBN Governor and deputy nominees

MY CONTRIBUTION TO YESTERDAY'S SCREENING OF CBN GOVERNOR AND DEPUTY NOMINEES AS THE SENATE RESUMES PLENARY

My Dear Constituents,

The Senate resumed plenary yesterday after a short vacation and during the sitting, I joined my distinguished colleagues to screen Dr Olayemi Cardoso who was nominated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, to serve as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and Mrs. Emem Nnana Usoro, Mr. Muhammad Sani Abdullahi Dattijo, Mr. Philip Ikeazor, and Dr. Bala M. Bello who were also nominated by the President to serve as Deputy Governors of the Apex Bank.

During the exercise, I reiterated the importance of ensuring that the nominees possess the necessary qualifications, experience, and integrity to effectively carry out their roles in the Central Bank of Nigeria. As a member of the Senate, it is our duty to thoroughly scrutinize and evaluate the nominees to ensure that they are fit for the positions they have been nominated for.

I also emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in the selection process. It is crucial that the nominees undergo a rigorous screening process to ensure that they are free from any conflicts of interest. The Central Bank of Nigeria plays a critical role in the country's economy, and it is essential that those appointed to lead it are individuals of high moral character and competence.

Furthermore, I reiterated the need for the Apex Bank to put in measures that will finance resuscitation of existing Refineries and building of Modular Refineries to support fuel subsidy removal and called on the nominees to streamline measures that will curb sabotage of our financial economy and strengthen the Naira.

I also stressed the importance of maintaining the independence of the Central Bank. The Central Bank should be free from political interference and be able to make decisions based on economic considerations and the best interests of the country. It is crucial that the nominees understand and respect the importance of this independence and are committed to upholding it.

Overall, the screening exercise was a necessary step in ensuring that the nominees for the positions in the Central Bank of Nigeria are qualified and capable of effectively carrying out their responsibilities. I am confident that the Presidency will make informed decisions based on the outcome of the screening process, and that the individuals selected will contribute to the growth and stability of Nigeria's economy.

Nnewi Day in London

Nnewi Day in London.

I PROUDLY ATTENDED THE ‘NNEWI DAY’ IN LONDON, CELEBRATING OUR RICH CULTURE AND HERITAGE

Yesterday at Castle Green Leisure Centre, Dagenham, Essex, United Kingdom, I was privileged to be the Special Guest of Honour at the ‘Nnewi Day’ celebration organised by the Nnewi Community Association (NCA) of Great Britain and Ireland. During the event, I had the opportunity to address the attendees and share my experiences as a member of the Nnewi community and as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It was a joyous occasion filled with cultural performances and delicious Nigerian cuisine.

I also spoke about the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and passing it on to future generations, and emphasized the need to sustain the existing unity and collaboration within our community, both in the UK and back home in Nnewi, Nigeria. I also highlighted the achievements and contributions of Nnewi people in various fields, such as business, academia, and the arts. It was inspiring to see the pride and enthusiasm of the attendees as we celebrated our shared identity and accomplishments.

The event provided a platform for further networking and connecting with fellow Nnewi community members. I had the opportunity to meet and engage with individuals who shared similar backgrounds and experiences. It was a reminder of the strength and resilience of Ala Nnewi, even when living far away from our homeland. As a proud member of the Nnewi community, I have witnessed the growth and development of our town over the years. Nnewi is a unique place, and I am proud to call it my home. It is also known for its industrious spirit, entrepreneurial mind-set, and strong sense of unity.

Nnewi has also been a hub of innovation and progress, with numerous successful businesses and industries that have contributed to the economic growth of our nation. From manufacturing to agriculture, the community has shown resilience and determination in the face of challenges. It has proven time and again that it can compete on a global scale.

As a Senator, I have had the privilege of representing the interests of ndị Nnewi and working towards the community’s development. I have witnessed first-hand the struggles and aspirations of our people. I have listened to their concerns, hopes, and dreams, and I have made it my mission to be their voice in the corridors of power. I have also created jobs and advocated for policies that promote entrepreneurship and empower our youth to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Special thanks to the executive of NCA led by Mr Chadwick Okoye for organizing the epic event. I am also grateful to Chief Uche Nwora, Ph.D (Ezeudo Enugwu-Ukwu na Umunri), Prince Onwa Nwafor-Orizu, Chief Onyeka Okelue (Ogidiga/Akaekpuchionwa Enugwu-Agidi) and others that attended the event as special guests.

Overall, the ‘Nnewi Day’ celebration was a memorable and uplifting experience. It reinforced the importance of celebrating our cultural heritage and fostering a sense of belonging within the Nnewi community. I am grateful for the opportunity to have been the Special Guest of Honour and look forward to future events that bring us together as a community.
