Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi has disclosed that he will never be ashamed to talk good of Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari.
The Governor disclosed this while granting audience to the Central Working Committees of the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) and the National Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ).
He described the President as a man driven by his integrity and “practical willingness to develop the country”.
“People have, however, taken advantage of his goodness to do lots of unprintable things.
“There are several great and mighty things he had done for the South-East zone such as the Second Niger Bridge, durable roads, among others.
“People don’t talk about these things but I will never be ashamed to talk about them,” he said.
He observed that Ebonyi developed progressively under Buhari’s tenure and its people would remain eternally appreciative to him.
“The 16 years of the opposition party cannot be compared to the seven years of Buhari’s administration as it concerns the state.
“People have been saying that he gives me money and loves me but undoubtedly he loves me.
“I have, however, said even before him that he gives me what he gives other states but it depends on what we do with such money,” he said.
He appreciated the leadership of both unions for their visit to the state and for their commendations of his modest achievements.
