…we have moved from old Ebonyi To New Ebonyi State
The only state in Nigeria where residents comfortably sit at the comfort of a beautifully crafted flyovers as they have a time out with their loved ones while the burble of water moves with a rippling flow from the unique waterfall sing song of fulfillment into their ears as they look forward to behold International football matches being played live in a large LED screen all for free. Only possible in Ebonyi state. Such a scene is found in over four strategic locations in the capital city of Ebonyi State even as more are incubating.
Governor David Nweze Umahi, FNSE, FNATE is a manufacturer of long life to Ebonyians as peace and fulfilment has become their second address even as security of their lives and property top in the agendas of the Governor. You live longer life on earth when you are at peace with yourself and your environment and Governor Umahi has led on the path of this fulfilment.
The pictures above were taken by me last night as I journeyed into the state like a visitor just to feel the impact of the new Ebonyi State.
Henceforth, whenever you want to talk about Ebonyi state, address it as the New Ebonyi State to enable the general public know that we have moved beyond our yesterday.
