Members of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria in the South-East geo-political zone have unanimously endorsed Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State for a second term in office for entrenching peace and good governance as well as his accommodating gesture in governance.

The cattle breeders, who thronged Government House, Enugu on a solidarity visit, described Ugwuanyi as a “kind, accommodating, ever focused and progressive governor,” saying that “no single vote from us will miss during the governorship election.”

Their chairman, Alhaji Didado Sidikki lauded the governor for his “manifest love for our people living in Enugu State,” informing him that “we freely carry the message of your welcoming attitude to our kiths and kin in the northern parts of Nigeria.”

“We do this as proof that the oneness that Nigerian leaders preach is in practice in Your Excellency’s domain”, the group said. They also commended Ugwuanyi “for setting the pace for enduring peace amongst the people of Nigeria,” stressing that “Gburugburu is a true representation of that leader who is ever willing to accommodate and protect Nigerians plying their legitimate trade under his watch in Enugu State.”

Applauding the governor’s spirit of tolerance “at the moments of trial consequent upon the dynamics of a growing society,” the group said that the governor had involved them in the governance of the state through “strategic appointments and recognitions, demonstrated true leadership,” maintaining that Ugwuanyi is “our model” and a leader who should be emulated.

“Having considered all these Your Excellency, our people unanimously raised our voices in supporting your acceptance to have a second shot at the governance of Enugu State through the instrumentality of the coming gubernatorial elections.

“We lend our weight in support of your re-election project as we share the belief that when a route is good, you make it twice. “Our experience of your shade of governance commands appeal, and we can do no less than give you our unalloyed support and votes to ensure that your re-election mission is duly accomplished.
