TO OUR ESTEEMED READERS
THE 57th birthday anniversary celebration of His Excellency, Rt. Hon. (Dr) Lawrence Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, who by the grace of God, is the Executive Governor of Enugu State since 2015, on March 20, 2021, was a momentous occasion. People from all walks of life, both the young and the old, across the political party divide, people both within and outside Enugu State, seized the occasion to pay glowing tributes to this hard working Governor and poured encomiums on the man of history.
Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is like a collosus. He is an enigma. He is everywhere. That is why people call him “Gburu-gburu”. He treats people not in the abstract, but in their human persons, as men and women, with individual needs and personal feelings.
Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has touched lives of many people living in Enugu State, both those in the rural areas, and those in the urban centres. He meets both of them in their various needs: both the young and the old, the rich and the poor, the sick and the healthy. He empathizes and celebrates with each of the groups. He visits and dines with both the high and the lowly, mourns and celebrates with both of them all.
Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has no boundary, and no demarcation among the various the political parties in Enugu State as well as among the various religious groups in the state. He freely interacts with them and attends their various functions and activities.
At the administrative level, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is not lacking. He has built many infrastructural facilities dotted in different parts of Enugu State: roads, health centres, schools, electricity, magistrate courts, etc. He is the most worker-friendly Governor Enugu State has ever had as he never jokes with the welfare of workers in the state.
