The coordinator of Governor Yahaya Bello (GYB) Connect for Adavi/Okehi Federal constituency, Alhaji Muktar Bajeh has commended the Adavi local government Administrator, Hon. Enesi Ajoge Abu for executing people-oriented projects and initiatives.
Bajeh gave the commendation in Adavi while celebrating Enesi’s one year in office.
He noted that the Administrators of the various Local government areas of the state were carefully selected by Governor Yahaya Bello, based on their previous track records, as responsible people who will be able to meet the yearnings and aspiration of the rural populace.
He said he was not surprised therefore, that the administrator has made such a huge impact on the lives of the people through the provision of critical infrastructures in education, health, rural electrification and empowerment.
Bajeh praised the administrator’s giant stride in the area of security of lives and property, noting that the vision of Governor Bello’s administration is to have a secured state state, where the citizens can freely do their businesses without fear of molestation.
He called on the other administrators of the remaining council areas to emulate the modest efforts of the Administrator of Adavi LGA in touching the lives of the people at the grassroot positively.
Speaking also, Hon. Enesi blamed the cases of insecurity in the state especially Kogi Central Senatorial district in the past to some of the past leaders who allegedly empowered the youths with weapons for political activities.
He said Governor Yahaya Bello was left with no choice than to combat the inherited cases of insecurity frontally.
According to him, security of lives and property as prioritised in the New Direction administration of Governor Yahaya Bello and adopted in the area, has drastically reduced social vices in his domain.
“I want to appreciate the Governor of Kogi State for his bold step in combating insecurity in the state especially Kogi Central. We are unfortunate to be reaping the seeds of thuggery sowed by our past leaders who equipped our youths with weapons”, he lamented.
The council boss said apart from several youths and women empowerment schemes, his administration has paid WAEC fees for thousand of indigent students in the area so as to improve the quality of education.
He added that his administration has equally carried out repair work on some boreholes across the LGA, paid hospital bills for many patients and rehabilitated several feeder roads that linked Adavi with other local governments to enhance economic activities.
He maintained that the era of government’s programme being shrouded in secrecy is over, saying that transparency, accountability and fairness are the watchword of his administration.
While urging the youths to avoid being used as a tool for political unrest, he expressed his readiness to sustain grassroots enlightenment of government’s programme in order to avoid being mislead by mischief makers.
