ENUGU — Dr. Prince Lawrence Ezeh, Enugu State Commissioner for Innovation, Science and Technology, popularly known as the Prince of Mburubu, has made one of the most substantial political contributions in the state in recent months by presenting a fleet of buses and ₦50 million to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Enugu State.

The handover ceremony, held on Tuesday in Enugu, drew a large gathering of party leaders, supporters, and stakeholders, who described the donation as a significant boost to the APC’s operational capacity and grassroots mobilisation ahead of upcoming political engagements.

Dr. Ezeh’s donation included one Coaster bus and four Toyota HiAce (Hummer) buses, each earmarked for critical arms of the party. The women’s wing received the Coaster bus, the youth wing was assigned one HiAce bus, while the remaining vehicles were designated for administrative and mobilisation activities across the state.

Addressing party members, the Commissioner emphasized that loyalty to a political party must go beyond rhetoric. He noted that while the state government under Governor Peter Mbah continues to implement economic-driven projects across all wards, party members must also support governance by strengthening internal structures through practical contributions.

He said the gesture was aimed at “strengthening the APC’s operational capacity” and enhancing the party’s effectiveness in grassroots mobilisation, logistics coordination, and statewide political outreach. In addition to the vehicles, Dr. Ezeh announced a ₦50 million support fund to help the party address logistical and administrative needs more efficiently.

Senior APC figures in Enugu lauded the donation, noting that the vehicles would be immediately deployed for field operations, community engagement, and coordination across wards. Party sources described the intervention as a “morale booster” that reinforces confidence ahead of future political activities.

Observers drew parallels to similar initiatives at the national level, recalling that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu recently inaugurated the Renewed Hope Ambassadors and distributed vehicles to support nationwide grassroots mobilisation.

Dr. Ezeh, who positions himself as a bridge between technocratic governance and community-based politics, reiterated his “unwavering commitment” to strengthening the APC in Enugu State, drawing prolonged applause from party members.

The State APC Caretaker Committee Chairman, Hon. Barr Ben Nwoye, commended the Commissioner for his consistent support of the party, while the Algon Chairman of Enugu State also thanked Dr. Ezeh for his contributions and prayed for continued blessings upon him.

The donation is widely regarded as an unparalleled demonstration of loyalty and party-building spirit in Enugu State.
