Ebonyi PDP lectures government of Ebonyi on priorities

The People’s Democratic Party in Ebonyi state has accused the Government of Ebonyi State of financial profligacy, sluggishness in delivering dividends of democracy and prioritization of vainglory. The party through its spokesman, Nwoba Chika Nwoba outlined the areas the party thought the government wasn’t doing well in. In a press statement signed on behalf of the party, Nwoba berated the government’s sluggish response to things that mattered in the state, likening it to a motion without movement.

The statement reads:

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Ebonyi State uses this opportunity to berate the APC – led government of Ebonyi state over the government’s penchant for spending Ebonyi people’s money on frivolities – things that don’t matter to the Ebonyi society for now, whereas the major areas that need urgent attention have been either completely abandoned or treated with levity.

We have watched the government recently and currently spend billions on these frivolous projects and the one that just took place which is the hosting of the wife of the president of Nigeria is more disturbing. We don’t have problem with hosting the president’s wife, but with the amount of public money that was sunk into it when the people of the state groan in hunger and abject poverty.

It bothers a sane mind a great deal to know that the government could recommission an airport project that had already been commissioned two years ago. Using the face of the president’s wife as a decoy to embark on the wasteful and theatric outing is what we frown at, more so as the government is yet to pay teachers in the state their October salaries yet in the middle of the month of November, 2024. This is a case of government’s inhumanity to its populace.

It’s on this premise and more that we urge the government to backtrack from wasteful expenditures and begin to meet the people of the state at the points of their collective needs. It’s alarming also to note that the people of Ebonyi don’t feel the impacts of government yet in the face of the fiscal abundance the government swims in. The PDP in Ebonyi is bothered about all these inglorious events taking shape in the state and charges the administration of Gov. Nwifuru to rise to the mandate of tackling the immediate needs of the state and her people in this time of great economic distress.

The party is urging Governor Nwifuru to meet the people of Ebonyi State at the points of their needs, and pay salaries of civil servants as, and when due. The PDP also urged the people of the state to speak out and condemn in loud voices the maladministration going on in the state since 2023. The party frowned at the invitation of the wife of the President of Nigeria, Senator Remi Tinubu into the state by wife of the governor, Uzoamaka Mary-Maudlin Nwifuru to commission the runway of the Ebonyi airport project instituted by the immediate past administration in the state at Onueke, Ezza South local government area of the state, and hosting of Ebonyi Women’s Day in November, referring to it as waste of public patrimony in the face of great economic quagmire.
