In what they described as liberation from politics of suppression, subjugation, denials and exclusion, the people of Greater Ugwuaji Community, in Enugu South Council of Enugu State, yeterday, gathered in their numbers to celebrate the state governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, for creating an enabling environment that led to the community to produce a democratically elected Chairman of the council for the first in the annals of the state.
The Ugwuaji people, led by the Chairman of Enugu South Council, Chimezie Nkwuo, mobilised their masquerades, religious and traditional leaders to the venue at Community Primary School, Eke-Ugwuaji Awkunanaw, to thank Ugwuanyi for what he did for them, stressing that they will forever remain grateful to the governor.
They expressed joy that the governor has liberated them, describing him as a leader endowed with good conscience and milk of human kindness.
At the event, tagged: ‘Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi’s Day,’ the people of Ugwuaji expressed gratitude to the governor for his courage in leadership, which, they said, was not found in his predecessors.
The people offered special prayers for Ugwuanyi, asking God to preserve and protect him, as well as grant him his heart desires, including his bid to represent Enugu North Senatorial District in the National Assembly in 2023, on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The Ugwuaji people also declared their support for Governor Ugwuanyi’s preferred successor in 2023, Dr. Peter Mbah, his running mate, Ifeanyi Ossai, and other candidates of the PDP in the state, assuring the governor of their block votes for PDP at the polls.
