Enugu 2023: Nsukka Youths Drum Support for Ugwuanyi

Youths of Enugu North Senatorial District under the auspices of ‘Nsukka Youths for Gburugburu’ have commended Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi for his commitment to the wellbeing and development of young people in the district in particular and the state in general.

The youth also applauded Ugwuanyi for the manner he has been carrying them along in his government.

Speaking when a delegation of youth leaders from the six local government areas of Enugu North Senatorial District paid a solidarity visit to Ugwuanyi at the Government House, Enugu, yesterday, the leader of the delegation, Roy Ifeanyi Ekwueme, was quoted in a statement to have told the governor that the visit was also to appreciate him for the peaceful conduct of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primary elections in the state.

They expressed confidence in the governor’s wisdom and leadership approach in respect of his political decisions saying: “That is why we organised ourselves to say for everything you have done for us, we are going to come to show you solidarity and support.”

According to him “We also thank you for the opportunity you (Ugwuanyi) gave to the youth that ordinarily wouldn’t have dreamt of being councilors, council chairmen, party candidates, even community leaders.”

 “Some of them are here with us. You carried them along and gave them a platform. These are people you raised in Enugu State who never had a father that spoke for them.”  

“They never had a name they were banking on. It was you that found them and gave them a name in Enugu State”.

Speaking further, Ekwueme, who is also the President of Nsukka General Assembly, reassured Ugwuanyi that youths of Nsukka zone are resolute in their support and loyalty to him and his administration, stressing that they remain committed to their stance that, “where you say we will go, we will go”.

Stressing that Ugwuanyi has, “done a lot for us and you are still doing a lot for us,” the leader of the delegation disclosed that Nsukka youths have unanimously endorsed the governor’s senatorial candidature and are working tirelessly towards his landslide victory at the poll in 2023 to represent the district in the 10th Senate.  

“That is why we came as ‘Nsukka Youth for Gburugburu’ to show that we are for you; to show you that we have always been for you; to show you that you are the only person in Nsukka zone that we can trust because you have shown us that you love, respect and acknowledge us,” he added.
