Renowned public health consultant and humanitarian, Amb. Dr. Mrs. Chiesonu Iziga-Eruchalu, has commended the Governor of Enugu State, Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, for his bold and visionary leadership that has continued to usher in a new era of transformation, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, governance, and human capital development.
Speaking against the backdrop of the governor’s strides in delivering on his campaign promises within just two years in office, Dr. Chiesonu praised Governor Mbah’s uncommon courage in addressing long-standing challenges that had hindered the state’s growth. She specifically highlighted the commissioning of the ultramodern transport terminals, the restoration of public trust through security gains, and the attraction of multi-billion naira investments as landmark achievements worthy of national emulation.
According to her, Governor Mbah’s leadership is not only visionary but also pragmatic, showing the world that Nigeria still has leaders who can marry competence with compassion. She described him as a man who is changing the narrative for the people of Enugu State by demonstrating that governance, when anchored on integrity and purpose, can truly serve as a vehicle for prosperity.
“Governor Peter Mbah has proven beyond every doubt that purposeful leadership is possible in Nigeria. His interventions in critical sectors like education, transportation, water supply, and security are practical solutions that directly impact the lives of ordinary citizens. These are the kinds of leaders we need if our nation is to rise again, and I celebrate him for this rare display of courage and dedication,” Dr. Chiesonu stated.
