We are now in the phase of development. Politics is over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to coalesce into a single force and face the challenges of underdevelopment in our Nation. Governor Peter Mbah means well for the people of Enugu State and he is humble.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am specifically enamored of his security project. I am happy for his investment in supplying water to Enugu. Most importantly, education is the greatest changer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithin a generation, the son of a peasant can become a celebrated icon. The investment of Peter Mbah in Smart Schools will yield a bountiful harvest in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I say I was impressed by what I saw in Enugu, it is an understatement. I was overwhelmed by the giant strides recorded by Governor Mbah and his team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has embraced modernity. He has embraced digital technology. Most of the things I saw are avant-garde technology, state-of-the-art security infrastructure, and beautiful road network. He is doing excellently well and he is worthy to be emulated by other governors across the length and breadth of this nation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is one of the few CEOs, who are versatile in the potentiality of the Information Technology industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to join all of us here in thanking Governor Peter Mbah for taking charge of the opportunities that abound and incidentally the Minister of Science and Technology is here and he is a son of Enugu. I want you to join forces to see that Enugu occupies its rightful place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnugu is an equivalent of Kaduna and Ibadan. But till the emergence of Governor Peter Mbah, Enugu was sleeping, a town that did not even have water supply.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour Excellency, we want to commend and identify with you. We have to sustain that brotherhood and relationship for the good of our people, both in development, infrastructure, we can change the narrative from negativity to positivity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Vice President emphasised that MSMEs were critical to economic growth, noting that the garment and fashion hub would serve as \u201ca stepping stone to the economic highways, providing an exchange in support of manufacturing in Enugu State, boosting production capacity and in enabling economy of scale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Benjamin Kalu, commended the collaborative efforts of the Federal Government and Enugu State to grow MSMEs, noting that what he saw at the Enugu State Garment and Fashion Hub was a clear indication that the youths of Nigeria had so much to offer if provided with the right opportunity and environment.<\/p>\n<p>Enugu back to life, time for politics over \u2013 VP Shettima<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, on Thursday, declared that Enugu State is back to life under Governor Peter Mbah.
