Why Ebonyi Gov. David Umahi Deserves Higher Roles

Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State has been described as a transformative leader who deserves a higher call of service after current duty.

A grassroots activist based in Abakaliki, the capital of Ebonyi State, Lady Monica Chidinma Eze, said David Nweze Umahi is a rare breed of leader endowed with will and traits to proffer workable solutions to the myriad of challenges currently facing Nigeria.

In a statement to TheConscience, Lady Monica argued that if Gov. Umahi could within less than six years turn Ebonyi State, hitherto known as dusty, most backward and epic centre of Guinea worm into the most developed State in Nigeria with ten massive and most beautiful flyovers to his credit unprecedented by any government in Nigeria coupled with the feat of constructing the most gigantic and beautiful Worship Centre in West Africa, then he is adequately fit to turn the fortunes of Nigeria for good.

His infrastructural projects have a classical touch. The Ebonyi Shopping Mall stands as the best in any part of Africa. The Ebonyi International Airport is boasted to be among the best in the country. “A visit to the new Ebonyi Government House is a tour to the wonderland”, she further boasted.

While almost all the States are engulfed with one security challenge or the other, Lady Monica said Umahi’s pragmatic approach to leadership has ensured the security of lives and property of citizens, residents and even visitors.

She said if good governance and quality leadership with timely results is the yardstick to elect leaders, then Nigerians should waste no time further in wooing David Umahi, a new revelation of leadership to prepare himself for a higher position in the leadership of this country come 2023.
