Ihedioha’s record breaking acts that got Imolites crying
By Ukaegbu Florence
There is this popular saying that says, “the good does not last”. Rt Hon. Emeka Ihedioha has proven to all and sundry with his record breaking acts which Imo state has long seen and some has never seen.
Hon Ihedioha within 8 months commenced quality road construction in Imo state. In August 2019, Ihedioha launched a 13.5billion naira road project which 27 local government areas of the state will benefit in. The roads were estimated to last up to 20 years.
Within 5 months in office, Rt Hon. Ihedioha commenced a State Health Insurance Scheme to enable Imolites enjoy good medical service in the state.
In 4 months, Ihedioha verified, paid all pensioners and resumed 100% full payment of all salaries.
He saw that the state had over 200 accounts and within 4 months, he reduced it to 1 Single Treasury Account System. Imo state in Ihedioha’s time became the least corrupt state in the country.
Agriculture was improved which aided rice production to commence in its full force. Also, over 600 youths were trained in an Agricultural Entrepreneurship Scheme in Nasarawa state and all in Ihedioha’s credit.
Sports and businesses came alive while Ihedioha was in government.
Imo state scored 1st position in ICT development.
The above stated is just a tip of the iceberg Hon. Ihedioha did in a short time of being th governor of Imo state. And it is credible to note that the good people of Imo state started to enjoy the dividends of good governance.
However, as Rt Hon. Emeka Ihedioha is no more the Imo state governor, how could these record breaking works be continued? This question keeps lingering in the heart of many.
