In Igbo-Eze South, no matter the effort to distract, the issues will still be about competence, capacity, commitment, character and compassion.
Not actually how loud or manipulative. Not conclave. Not excuses for why we lost our presence and ran away from our secretariat in the last administration before the arrival of Bar Ugo Ferdinand.
Yes! It is certainly not about creating more problems or talking down a great work to be termed lover of the people - it is all about appreciating a committed progressive young man who is changing the status quo.
What many ran away from, telling ndi Igbo-Eze South and Enugu State stories that looked like we can never be together without thinking that we will kill eachother has today come to an end due this young man's resilience to transform and unite us all in order to form a greater people. Have we all forgotten so soon how none was allowed to come close to Igbo-Eze South secretariat talk more about discussing issues pertinent to its growth due to the fact that her leadership was a torn on not just the body of the people but even those that appointed it - unlike what we have in Ugo Ferdinand today - MR UNIFIER.
Yes, Barr Ugo Ferdinand may not have started his administration by constructing road or attracted investors to build companies but he already started on a good note by building, renovating, remapping the entire Igbo-Eze South Local Government Council secretariat as a symbol of readiness for transformative leadership.
Barr Ugo Ferdinand, stated on the very point that past administrations failed to started, he has started on bridging the gaps that hindered community development and empowerment in the past, he has started on the very first thing that made many to fail not just as leaders but as mayors of Igbo-Eze South by not seeing anyone as competitor but colleague, friend and relatives that shapes the face of Igbo-Eze South progress.
Barr Ugo Ferdinand, is a movement made for the greater good of Igbo-Eze South and Enugu State.
Barr Ugo Ferdinand, is a united force brought to amplify the voices of Igbo-Eze South progress, unity and commitment toward communities growth and development.
Barr Ugo Ferdinand, has been able to achieve the maximum unity, peace and progress we see in Igbo-Eze South today due to his commitment in taking Igbo-Eze South out of her years of bad governance - he started this by promising to finish the renovation of the local government secretariat abandoned by the former mayor but I would say that he didn't just renovate it, he built one of the most amazing and befitting secretariat in the entire Enugu State almost from the scratch.
Barr Ugo Ferdinand, single handedly built this edifice with the Igbo-Eze South resources at his disposal which shows that he has a good managerial skills and commitment towards achieving a specific goal (s) at a particular point in time.
However, for the antagonists and its cohorts trying to paint this efforts bad or down play his efforts by attributing the project to Alhaji Jimoh Ibrahim(JRB), I would say that they have done well by not being honest to themselves and their children. We are the people of Igbo-Eze South and we are not known to lack the spirit of appreciation for good job because an Igbo adage says "Obu ekene Onye gworo akidi, Ogwota - Ozo (when you appreciate one for a good job, he will do more). The camp that are saying this are not far from haters that are perturbed by the level of development they are seeing or by the very fact that Alhaji Jimoh (JRB), whom stayed away from this very local government for a long time due to ill treatment and miscreantic life styles of our past leaders that have always felt threatened by his magnanimity thinking that he is after their mayor position when he has zero interest.
But why is it that these dislocated online crusaders are not talking about how acrimonious and negative mentality mindset has hindered the progress and development of Igbo-Eze South ever since the early days when JRB extended his hands of fellowship towards our communities but was refused or denied that due to selfishness?
It is high time, we learnt how to support one who came to work and is working for the growth of their communities. Barr Ugo Ferdinand, may not have been working according to the pace one wish to see but then he who wears the shoe knows where it pinches - this young man barely sleeps because he moves around the communities of Igbo-Eze South trying to phantom the best strategies to use in rebuilding both peace, security and economic pillars of Igbo-Eze South.
Perhaps, he is a wise leader who knows that nothing thrives when there is no peace and security which is why he is working all his possible best in rebuilding the institutions of peace and security of Igbo-Eze South communities; from Obaka - Unadu, heading to Alor -Agu in a jiffy.
Relief has come to Igbo-Eze South and Barr Ugo Ferdinand is that relief we seek - Support a cheerful leader, Support Ugo Ferdinand today.
Let’s keep the conversation for development coming but take evil blood out of our lives.
