Umahi,s contract accountability prowess

By Philip Nweze

One of the many achievements of Ebonyi State governor, David Umahi in the outgoing year is his ability to sustain discipline in the execution of contracts awarded with tax payers money.

Absence of such vigilance in the past was the greatest mistake made by his predecessors which formed the pivot of their failure. They awarded contracts and never bothered to supervise them either because the money was never coming from their pockets and so they weren't feeling the pain or because they were using it to compensate their cronies and lackeys.

Umahi will give contract, and regardless of who is supervising it; insist that it will be done and delivered according to specifications. This long established principle does not spare any sacred cow. This is how he has been able to achieve towering trail-blazing infrastructural profile for the state and closure of our leaking purse which has been going into individual pockets. He has broken the cartels that siphoned our collective sweat into private fortunes.

In today Ebonyi, procedures for award of contract has been practically reborn. The governor doesn't believe in dishing out piecemeal approach to projects execution or in using contracts to settle "boys". No. Here in Ebonyi, requisite link and connections don't get you contracts. Expertise and track record of performance does.

We say welcome to this new regime of accountability.

Pls what's happening in abịa state? I went to aba and almost died. It's a total waste land

This is a good one not his counterpart in one state like that.

Good. He is an engineer and a deacon in Christ Embassy. 'When the righteous is in authority the people rejoice'

This guy doesn't seem to know what he's doing. He's just taking pictures like buhari

kool

What's the big deal with this

Gov ifeanyi okowa you dey see your mate so.

so in his mind nw he is deceiving us

Governors sef, is this his job, he don start camera campaign like ayodele of ekiti, allow people to do the talking for u.

Is it he a specialist in gutterlogy?

commissioner for work should have represent in the inspection of this little street project, not a whole governor beside what's the function of this eye service governor's deputy. their deputy governor seems to be handicapped in governmental functions

What is the governor's background? Is it civil engineering?
---
Nothing wrong in physically inspecting projects, but I see no sense in the governor packing concrete or measuring drainages. If he can't trust his commissioner for works to do this and advise him appropriately, then there's a problem.

That's my governor. Jisike

What a piece of backward state. Ebonyi people are nomadic gala hawkers across Africa of which one of them is John Igwe(achi4u). Only 5% of Ebonyi people are living in Ebonyi, so it is so easy for this useless governor to dig gutter as achievement. Ebonyi people are not Igbos but descendants from Taraba.
