Stressing that Gov Ugwuanyi’s administration has placed the Nigeria Correctional Service in the front burner, Onokohwomomo, on behalf of the officers, men and inmates of the Service thanked the governor for his “kind gestures and unrelenting efforts towards a better and more efficient and effective service delivery in the state”.

According to the state Comptroller of Immigration: “Your Excellency, as a devout Christian, I cannot agree less with your administration’s emphasis that ‘Enugu State is in the Hands of God’. It is on good record that before the recent disruptions and distortions to the considerable peace and security pervading the South East region, Enugu State enjoyed the indisputable reputation as the safest and most peaceful state in the country. This has not changed significantly even in the face of recent highly condemnable activities of some armed bandits across the South East of Nigeria. Within my short stay since the assumption of office as State Comptroller of Immigration, I have observed that Enugu State is thriving under your dynamic and focused leadership. Undoubtedly, Ndi Enugu are enjoying unprecedented peace and safety with an accompaniment of stupendous rural transformation and development in every sector, all of which are a manifestation of your proactive governance strategies and infectious sense of humility, simplicity and team spirit”.
