Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has ordered public office holders to relocate for the development of their respective council areas in tandem with the spirit and letter of his second term inaugural speech.
He reinstated his stance at the Government House, Enugu when he met with councils’ stakeholders, including chairmen and their deputies, councilors, supervisors, administrators and members of the development centres.
The governor, who thanked God for a peaceful and successful transition, stated that the essence of the meeting was to charge public officers at the third tier of government to rededicate themselves to service to the people in line with his administration’s rural development policy.
He noted that his government was determined to fulfil the promises it made to the people during the campaign, stressing that it was only when those elected and appointed at the grassroots reside there with the indigenes that government’s programmes could be fully actualised.
