Chime
Some Enugu elders coming under the umbrella of Enugu State Development Association, ESDA, have urged Governor Sullivan Chime to retrace certain steps recently taken by him that are propelling the State House of Assembly to carry out their impeachment plot against him. They said the steps need to be taken for peace to reign in the state.
In a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Chief Adonys Igwe, ESDA described some actions of the governor like the request to borrow N11 billion from a commercial bank less than 25 days to the end of his administration, unlawful allocation of plots of land at the Conference Centre, alleged move to sell the Water Corporation among others, as worrisome.
The elders recalled that it had earlier given the Governor three months within which to back down on some of his actions which negated the protection of rights and interests of the state or face court action.
“We urge the governor to act in a manner that every reasonable person will not take him as a governor who betrayed the confidence reposed in him and would not want the in-coming governor-elect to succeed. It must be noted that Enugu state is today the highest debtor in the five Southeast states of Nigeria,” ESDA noted.
