The people of Idodo Zone, Governor Peter Mbah’s immediate zone in Nkanu East LGA of Enugu State have hosted him to a grand civic reception, describing him as a son in whom they are well pleased.
They also donated the sum of N50m towards the governor’s reelection.
The people, who trouped out in their thousands, said Mbah had not only lifted the zone from the backwaters of Enugu State to reference point in development, but had equally put Enugu State on the national map in all indices of national development.
Speaking through the Chairman of the organising committee, Barr. Osinachi Nnajieze, the people of the zone, comprising Owo, Amechi Idodo, Amankanu, Ubahu, Oruku, and Umuode, said it’s in line with Igbo’s culture to celebrate a son, who distinguishes himself, more so a governor of Mbah’s caliber that had changed the narratives of the state in just three years.
“We formally say to you, with one voice and one heart: welcome home! It is a historical rarity for a relegated place like ours to spring the surprise of producing a son of this calibre — a son whose leadership, in just three years, has become the envy of states across Nigeria and beyond.
