Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi has promised to continue to showcase President Muhammadu Buhari’s achievements despite facing opposition from some Nigerians.
Mr Umahi stated this in Abakaliki when he inaugurated several projects executed by the National Obstetric Fistula Centre (NOFIC) Abakaliki.
The governor noted that Mr Buhari had done a lot for the country.
“Every sincere leader will tell you the burden of leadership at this present challenging period. Most developed countries are presently experiencing a recession, but Nigeria experienced it on two occasions and is still standing,” Mr Umahi explained.
He described Mr Buhari as a committed, sincere and humble leader who has never asked anyone to fight his enemies for his sake, who “has not asked anyone to rig election for him and if others will not commend him publicly, I will.”
The governor added, “Ebonyi has come to be under his administration and in spite of what some people say, I know where we were before this period.”
Mr Umahi commended the medical director of NOFIC over the monumental projects, saying that the centre’s management also shared in the plaudit.
“I am impressed with the concrete roads you constructed, and adopting our concrete road technology shows you like us. You also imbibed our philosophy of using little funds to achieve great works, and I can assist in installing an oxygen plant at the centre,” stated the Ebonyi governor.
