The Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, has appealed to opposition parties to join his administration’s effort to transform the state.
Governor Mbah said President Bola Tinubu‘s state visit to the state on Saturday to commission some projects was an acknowledgment of his government’s efforts.
Speaking at the commissioning events, Mbah stated that the projects reflected his vision to grow the economy of the state to $30 billion.
Among the projects commissioned were 30 completed Enugu Smart Green Schools out of 260 under construction, 60 equipped Type 2 Primary Healthcare Centres across 260 wards, the Enugu International Conference Centre, a hub for global engagement, 90 newly completed urban roads to ease mobility in our cities, and a state-of-the-art Command and Control Centre with 150 AI-embedded patrol vehicles for enhanced security.
“The President’s acknowledgment of our efforts underscores the essence of our mission. From our investments in education, healthcare, and infrastructure to bolstering security, we are laying a solid foundation for a prosperous Enugu State.
“These projects reflect our vision to grow Enugu’s economy from $4.4 billion to $30 billion within the next eight years. It is a responsibility we owe to our dear people of Enugu State.
“Security is key to this vision. Our AI-driven surveillance network and the Distress Response Squad have redefined safety across the state. This initiative guarantees peace of mind, ensuring our streets and neighbourhoods remain safe for residents and investors alike,” he said.
The Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, assured residents of the state of his commitment to providing good governance.
“I want to assure my dear Ndi Enugu that this is just the beginning. As a government, we shall continue to build the Enugu of our dreams, a hub of opportunity, service delivery, and economic excellence.
“I wholeheartedly echo the President’s call that the elections are behind us and now is the time to unite and drive our nation forward. Regardless of political affiliations, we can build an Enugu State as well as a Nigeria that serves and uplifts everyone,” Mbah added.
