Monica Ada Chidinma Eze, president of David Umahi Nweze Akuburoah Ebonyi Transformation Agenda lauds the All Progressives Congress for conceding defeat in the forthcoming guber election in Ebonyi State
IT was a galore of celebration and victory dance throughout Ebonyi State on January 30, immediately after the All Progressives Congress presidential rally in Abakaliki the State capital of Ebonyi State when it becomes obvious that Dave Nweze Umahi, governor of Ebonyi State, reelection bid received the blessings and approval of all the opposition political parties particularly the APC in Ebonyi State.
This position becomes imperative after it took much pleas from Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of APC, for Senator Sunny Ogbuoji the APC flag-bearer in Ebonyi State, to be recognized during the APC rally by most of the key political actors of APC in the State. Even when he was being introduced it was the shout of UMAHI! UMAHI! UMAHI!!! Ka Anya ga eso (It is Umahi we will follow) that was been chorused by those that attended the rally.
Even when Eze Nwachukwu Eze, the APC State chairman tried in vain to castigate the administration of Umahi that it stration has not achieved nything for the State, both President Muhammadu Buhari and some of the important dignitaries busted into uncontrollably laughter, indicating that he has succeeded in making himself a laughing stock. These APC chieftains will be wondering how could any sane man utter such a statement that Governor Umahi, who was praised few minutes before the commencement of the rally for being the face of good governance in the country did not achieve anything in the state.
Monica Ada Chidinma Eze, founder and president of David Umahi Nweze Akuburoah Ebonyi Transformation Agenda, DUNAETA, a Non Governmental Organisation, NGO, promoting and projecting good governance and virile democracy in Ebonyi State made these remarks in a press statement circulated to the media in Abakaliki on Thursday.
Monica, who expressed happiness, stated that it is only those from the dark kingdom that could visit Ebonyi without acknowledging the great feats and transformation that the administration of Engr. Umahi has brought to the State.
“Truly, Governor Umahi is an enigma and epitome of what a leader should be and those of us from Ebonyi State thank God for the special gift he gave to us through the coming of his son, Umahi and no effort or plot to truncate God’s vision for Ebonyi State through him will succeed,” Monica said.
She commended Ogbonnaya Onu, former Governor of old Abia State and incumbent minister of Science and Technology and a key stakeholder in the State for the maturity he exhibited during the rally acknowledging before the world that President Buhari is not only a good friend of Ebonyi State but that Ebonyi State was the first State in Nigeria apart from Katsina State his home state where he slept, ate, drank and spent two days commissioning projects after projects.
The DUNAETA president eulogized President Buhari for his special love for Governor Umahi and pleaded with him to allow a free and fair election in the State as we have only one credible gubernatorial candidate in Ebonyi State and anybody working against his reelection bid is an enemy of the State.
Monica further commended President for assuring the government and people of Ebonyi State of his preparedness to refund monies the state spent on federal projects after the review committee concludes auditing of the projects. The president, who stated this during an audience with Governor Umahi and other stakeholders at the State Government House, Abakaliki, also commended Governor David Umahi for the infrastructural development in the State.
