Ben Ezechime, Enugu
The Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, has urged Nigerians to remain resilient and continue to keep hope alive, as the current effort to reposition the county would ultimately yield fruits.
Mbah made the call in his goodwill message to Nigerians on the occasion of Nigeria’s 65th Independence anniversary.
The governor also called for national unity as a panecea in moving the country forward.
“On this milestone celebration of Nigeria’s 64th Independence Anniversary, I congratulate Ndi Enugu – and, indeed, all Nigerians.
“I commend them for their resilient spirit and patriotic fervor, and enjoin them not to feel downcast by the challenges of today. Challenges dissipate in the face of undying optimism.
“As the old saying goes: Hope springs eternal! There is certainly light at the end of the tunnel, especially given the strong determination of our dear president to turn the situation around for good.
“Let us continue to support the government and demonstrate absolute unity. Indeed, our independence – and the many decades after – stand as proofs of how much we can achieve when we stay united.
“Happy 64th Independence Anniversary to Ndi Enugu – and all Nigerians,” Mbah said.
Meanwhile, Ikengaonline reports that Enugu has remained quiet as the people go about grumbling over the current hardships being faced by the citizens.
