The Enugu State Governor, Dr. Peter Mbah has charged newly inaugurated Commissioners to work assiduously to attract investment and economic development and growth in the state.
Gov. Mbah stated this on Thursday during the swearing-in ceremony of 20 of the 21 newly appointed Commissioners at the Government House Enugu.
Congratulating the Commissioners, Dr. Mbah charged them to bring to the fore their expertise in actualizing his administration’s campaign promises to the masses.
“We expressed a massive vision, a vision that would see us growing our economy exponentially. We also promised our people to eradicate poverty. We want to make Enugu State the premier destination for investment.”
“Those are laudable and lofty ideas. But one thing we knew also when we made those promises, was that we needed a team that will convey our people from where we are today to the destination we want to take them to. For this reason, the process that resulted in your selection was quite rigorous and detailed.”
“So, I want to congratulate all of you for at least making it on this list. In about 100 days from now, Enugu people want to turn their taps and see water flowing from those taps. We have promised them. So, they are expectant,” Dr. Mbah reiterates.
To achieve access to quality education, and healthcare services and attract investments to the state, Gov. Mbah charged the Commissioners to sharpen their skills so as to conquer new grounds for economic development and growth.
