Uzo-Uwani leaders in Enugu State have appealed to Governor Sullivan Chime to include more communities in the 2011 rural electrification budget especially Nkpologu and Uvuru Communities, the gateway to the Local Government Area.

They also appealed to him to look into the slow pace of work in the contract for Eke – Ebe – Egede – Akpakwume-nze – Aku and Nkpologu road.

The leaders who spoke through their Chairman, Mr. Maximus Ukuta, noted that despite the travails in Enugu State before the elections, the people of Uzo-Uwani were pleased with the quality of their representatives, a direct consequence of the good works of Governor Chime.

They therefore asked the contractors handling the road project to expedite action so that the good intentions of Governor Chime would be appreciated by all.

They also congratulated the Senator representing Enugu North Senatorial District, Senator Ayogu Eze, Princess Stella Ngwu, member representing Igbo-Etiti/Uzo-Uwani Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives and Hon Johnkelvin B.B. Ukuta, member representing Uzo-Uwani in the Enugu State House of Assembly.

Chief Maximus Ukuta further thanked Governor Sullivan Chime for his developmental strides across Uzo-Uwani and appointment of their son, Mr Chukwuka Utazi as the Commissioner for Inter-Ministerial Affairs in his cabinet and recent electrification of Opanda – Adani and Ogurugu Communities.
