Community and educational leaders in Amalla, Udenu local government area and other communities in Igbo-Eze North council area have made accolades on their House of Representatives member, Rt. Hon Dennis Nnamdi AGBO, for attracting and completing the construction and reconstructions of various classroom blocks in their secondary schools.
Commissioning the facilities by the Governor of Enugu state who was represented by the state Commission for Education, Prof. Ndubueze Mbah, different community leaders and school Principals paid tributes to both Governor Peter Mbah and Rep Agbo for their giant strides in the provision of educational infrastructure such as the state government’s ongoing constriction of 260 Smart Schools across the state, and Rep Agbo’s continued provision of educational facilities in Igbo-Eze North/ Udenu Federal constituency.
The facilities included a seven-classroom block with two offices at Umuegali Amalla in Udenu LGA, six-classroom block at Community Secondary School Imufu; four-classroom block at Comprehensive Secondary School Ekposhi, an Examination Hall and ICT building at Community High School Uda.
Expressing appreciations to Rep Agbo for attracting the projects, community leaders such as Prince Emeka Eze of Amalla in Udenu LGA; Chief Abel Idoko of Ekposhi Enugu-Ezike, HRH Igwe Remigus Attah of Imufu and Ichie Peter Ugwuja of Udah in Igbo-Eze North LGA, described Agbo as a good representative with integrity and track record of excellence.
They also made accolades on Governor Peter Mbah who Chief Idoko said his governance has been characterized by “business unusual and disruptive innovations in all sectors.” Ichie Ugwuja recalled that Rep Dennis AGBO had earlier remodeled college buildings, the old dormitory and laboratory blocks in Udah Community High School, in addition to other community development projects.
Rep Agbo in his different speeches gave commendation to Governor Peter Mbah, stating that the governor is a worthy partner whose hard work propels him to seek budgetary provisions for his constituency and the state – “the Governor is working, so we work”.
Agbo said, “We’re taking after the Governor. Education is the enabling factor for the future because if you educate a child, you empower him. All we are doing is to contribute our own quota to elevate that initiative, bringing resources from the center, from the federal government, which is where we operate, to support what the Governor is doing.
“Education is the key in human capital development. Imagine a remodeled secondary School in Udah, and a Smart School next door, the confidence it will engineer in children in the next five years is unimaginable. I thank my constituents who are wonderful people. They support me and I’m working hard for them.”
The Governor’s representative and the state Commissioner for Education, Prof Ndubueze Mbah said that there is a democratic synergy between the state government’s effective governance and effective representation by the House of Representative member.
“The people who are enjoying these democratic endeavors are the people that Honourable represents and the citizens of Enugu state in general, who are led by our Governor. It has been a richly rewarding experience and I’ll provide the governor a full brief on my excursion here,” Prof Mbah said.
