Update on Nsukka

21/09/2021

*Public Notice...!!!*

The Government and Good people of Nsukka LGA, today, the 21st of September, 2021, recieved with shock and grief, the sudden death of one Late Mr. Nickolas Onyemaechi Ugwu popularly known as Nikado, a Keke Rider who was a native of Eha-Alumona in Nsukka LGA.

From preliminary investigations, it was ascertained that his death was occasioned by a brawl with two men who claimed to be collecting levy on behalf of their employer; s brawl that turned violent.

In the light of this unfortunate incident, the Government of Nsukka LGA, wishes to state thus:

1. That Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, and his Adminstration, most heartily, condoles the family of the deceased, the entire good people of Eha-Alumona and indeed, Nsukka LGA, on this unfortunate loss.

2. That the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA on hearing about the ugly incident, rushed to the scene of the incident, visited the Bishop Shannahan Hospital, Nsukka, where the body of the deceased was deposited and for three hours and still counting, have been on ground calming frayed nerves of the deceased's family well wishers and colleagues.

3. That the two suspects who are accused of causing the death of the deceased and their employer, Mr Emeka Asogwa are already in police custody and have already been moved to Enugu.

4. That contrary to rumours making the rounds, the two suspects who are accused of causing the deceased's death, are not employees of Nsukka LGA;

Recall that on assumption of office, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, disbanded all forms of Task Forces, (Agboros), in Nsukka LGA immediately he assumed office.

5. That the two suspects are employees of one Mr. Emeka Asogwa, a contactor and a transporter;

6. That Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, has ordered the immediate suspension, till further notice, of all forms of levies, rates or duties collected from Keke Riders within Nsukka LGA

*Dedicates Meritorious Award To His Boss, His Excellency, The Governor Of Enugu State;*

The Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, has consistently continued to follow the footsteps of his boss, the best Governor in Nigeria, His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Executive Governor of Enugu State, becoming one of the 28 LGA Chairmen, out of the 744 LGA Chairmen across Nigeria, that Abuja, the Nigerian Nation's capital city, would stand still for, on Saturday, the 16th of September, 2021, in a historic event, tagged 'Nigerian Local Government Chairmen Merit Awards', that aimed at singling out and honouring LGA Chairmen that have unequivocally distinguished themselves among their peers, in terms of performance, excellence and meritorious impacts on their people.

On that day, Hon. Barr. Ugwueze, indeed, made history, as he became the first Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, to ever bag that prestigious award since the Award's over 20-year history, having come into existence in the year, 2000 at the wake of this political dispensation.

He also became the only Executive Chairman of Enugu State extraction that would be awarded in the 2021 edition of that annual national event.

Of a truth, for Ugwueze, his good people of Nsukka LGA and, of course, Enugu State, this feat is a no mean feat, considering the tedious investigative selection processes undertaken by the organizers of the Award, which, at the outset, involved the nomination of about six LGA Chairmen in Enugu State, ou

Like in every thing he does, the Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, in setting up Nsukka LGA's Traffic/Environmental Marshall, has once again, demonstrated deep thoughtfulness, committed thoroughness and unwavering focus, going the extra mile to foist innovative dimensions to the brand new outfit.

As confirmed by the Enugu State Waste Evacuation Committee which, led by its Coordinator, Hon. Dr. Oscar Okwume, that visited Nsukka LGA, recently to Inaugurate the team, Hon. Barr Ugwueze's brand of Marshalls is ahead of others in the state, in many regards.

And, of a truth, a cursory look at the outfit, its equipment and how it was constituted, would reveal the truism in that assertion.

First, the processes followed to arrive at the selection and employment of the Marshalls, typically exemplified what due process represents.

Through his ever supportive Supervisor for Works and Transport, Hon. Cyprain Ugwuaku, the Capacity Mayor released a call for advert which, through the LGA's portals of communication, was publicized to the general public.

In the end, well over a hundred applications were sent in, and were collated by Hon. Ugwuaku who coordinated the process.

However, to be sure he got what he wanted, Hon. Barr. Ugwueze, sat through the interview session himself, interacting, one-on-one, with all the intending employees and at the end of the process, penciled down those who met his standards.

It may be important to note,

It was colorful, pomp and ceremony, on Saturday, the 11th of September, 2021, at the Princess Alexandria Auditoriium, (PAA), University of Nigeria, Nsukka, when Starlite Newspapers, one of the reputable Nsukka Senatorial District's pioneer media houses, in its unequivocal voice, honoured the Capacity Mayor of Nsukka LGA, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze with Local Governance Exemplary Leadership Award, in recognition of his far-reaching, impactful and lofty democracy deliverables in Nsukka LGA as Chairman.

The award ceremony was the maiden award ceremony of the Media House in its more than two decades of existence.

Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, since emerging the 'numero uno' of the elite Council Area of Nsukka, has beyond every doubt that is reasonable, changed all narratives in every aspect. He has broken barriers in virtually all sectors, leaving indelible imprints in areas ranging from security of lives and property, peace and tranquility, health, education, rural development, e.t.c. hence the arousal of the reputable media house's interest in honouring him.

Presenting the honourary award, the Publisher of Starlite Newspapers, Chief Harrison Ogara, one of Enugu State's finest Journalists, lauded the Capacity Mayor's achievements as Chairman of about the largest LGA in Nigeria, which hosts Nigeria's foremost citadel of learning, UNN.

The event which was heralded by funfair, classic ambience and conviviality attracted University dons, politicians and other gladiators from other walks of life.

*Tuesday, September 7th, 2021...!!!*

The Government of Nsukka LGA, under the leadership of Hon Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, in the strongest of terms, condemns, in its totality, the unfortunate, totally unacceptable and wanton destruction of motorcycle parts at Eleagu Obukpa yesterday, Monday, 6th September, 2021, by hoodlums suspected to be enforcers of the Sit-At-Home order of the Indiginous People of Biafra, (IPOB).

During the ugly incident, as unraveled by preliminary investigations, a truck, conveying motorcycle parts from Nnewi in Anambra State to Kabba in Kogi State, was intercepted and burnt down to rubbles, by gun-totting, masked hoodlums, numbering about seven, who according to eyewitnesses, arrived the scene on motorbikes.

On hearing about the incident, the ever responsive Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, The Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, mobilized the Neighbourhood Watch and the police to the scene.

Following his distress call, fire fighters dispatched from the Fire Service, Nsukka, arrived the scene and did their best to fight the fire.

Hon. Barr Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, and his administration, in a most empathic disposition, commiserates with the business men and women most of whom are certainly likely Igbos, who lost their goods and means of livelihood in the unfortunate, blatant show of wickedness.

It beats the Capacity Mayor, a man of peace, how Igbo youths have degenerated to resorting to violence against their own Igbo brothers in an absurd attempt to fight presumed enemies. To him, that simply amounts to one cutting off one's own nose in order to spite one's face.

However, leveraging on this unfortunate incident, the Capacity Mayor wishes to reassure the general public about the resolve of his administration to continue to make the protection of lives and properties of its people, one of its priorities.

While he directs the public to be calm and law abiding, he restates his vow to ensure that the

*Public Notice...!!!*

*Monday, September 6th, 2021...!!!*

The attention of the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze and his administration, have been drawn to a purported confessional video making the rounds on the social media, wherein one suspected notorious criminal, Nnabuike Nwamba, from Eha-Alumona in Nsukka LGA, who has a verifiable trackrecord of criminality, in a poorly acted show of malice, shame and retaliation, mentioned names of some of our most priced sons as collaborators in and sponsors of their heinous crimes.

The general public is hereby urged to jettison, throw overboard and totally disregard the video and its contents as it is a clear case of vindictiveness, vendetta and acrimony.

Ede-Odume, whose name was mentioned in the said video, over the years, has proven to be one of Nsukka's most trusted hands in vigillante and Neighborhood Watch operations and is today a trained Police Constabulary, who has been one of the biggest thorns on the flesh for Nnabuike Nwamba and cohorts.

Ede-Odume's war against Nnabuike's gang and indeed other gangs within Eha-Alumuna, Nsukka LGA and environs, is a widely known fact and his resolute stand against criminals and criminality is in the public domain. Working closely with the Capacity Mayor of Nsukka LGA, Hon. Barr. Ugwueze's Administration and the police, he has achieved the cracking and decimation of a number of daredevil gangs within Nsukka LGA and beyond, a situation which has contributed to the peace and tranquility Nsukka LGA enjoys today. The records are there for everyone to see.

On the other hands, Rt. Hon. Dr. Chinedu Nwamba, an incumbent, three time Member of Enugu State House of Assembly, who rose to the lofty office of Speaker of that hallowed Chamber, whose name was also mentioned by the suspected criminal, has been a bastion of peace, security and goodwill, not just in Eha-Alumona but also in Nsukka LGA. The fact is in the public domain that Rt. Hon. Nwamba is one of the

The Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, The Executive Chairman Of Nsukka LGA, following the 'Youth O'Clock' disposition of his boss, the Best Governor in Nigeria, Rt. Hon. Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, is set to recruit scores of youths across the twenty wards of Nsukka LGA to be saddled with the responsibility of checking the preponderant blatant flouting and evasion of traffic lights within the emerging Nsukka city.

Since the emergence as the 'numero uno' of the elite Council Area of Nsukka, the Capacity Mayor has never minced words concerning his resolve to preserve the aesthetics of the democracy deliverables bequeathed on his LGA of jurisdiction by his boss, His Excellency, the Governor.

However, since the arrival of traffic lights to Nsukka Land, courtesy of that same man who has shown Nsukka LGA unprecedented and unequalled love in terms of Infrastructure, if not in all ramifications, His Excellency, Rt Hon. Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Nsukka man has failed to appreciate that gesture as he unrepentantly disobeys the traffic lights at will, reducing the far-reaching democracy dividends to mere disco lights.

Yet, the Nsukka driver is one who would, when he vi

The Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, on Saturday, 14th August, 2021, again, demonstrated humanitarian capacity, a virtue for which his administration is getting popular by the day, when he payed a visit to the family of Mr. and Mrs. Nnaemeka Ugwoke who was recently blessed with bouncing male triplets.

However, part of what made the Mayor's gesture tick was the fact that the Ugwoke family, native of Itchi in Igbo-Eze South LGA, but resident at Amaeze, Nsukka, underscored the borderlessness of the social responsibility of Ugwueze's administration and it's humanitarian posruring.

A wheelbarrow pusher, Mr Nnaemeka Ugwoke was faceless, unknown and somewhat indigent and had issues with even the payment of medical bills after the childrenbirth. Yet, Hon. Barr. Ugwueze would spare a thought for him and his beloved family in that rare gesture.

The plight of the Ugwokes was, however, brought to the public domain by a clarion call let off by one Maduabuchi Ugwu, Odoziobodo, and Hon. Luke Eze, MC Elder, who took to the social media after Mr Nnaemeka ran to Odoziobodo for help; to solicit for help on his family's (Nnaemeka's) behalf.

Touched by their plight, the Capacity Mayor, like he has done in uncountable occasions for many other downtroddens of the society, would bring succour to the distressed Nnaemeka Ugwoke and family who became beside themselves with joy in appreciative ecstacy of the Capacity Mayor's gesture.

It would be remembered that Chief Ezugwu Ifeanyichukwu, Shikaffi, had also supported the family with the hospital bill of Seventy-Six Thousand Naira.

Like his boss, the Best Governor in Nigeria, Rt. Hon. Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Executive Governor of Enugu State, the Cap

The Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, has, in a move commended in all quarters, begun the aggressive sand-filling of the adjoining surroundings of the Adada house. This move, aimed at expanding the compound and reclaiming the vast expanse of land lying waste over the years, is believed to be one of the most proactive and pragmatic decisions of Nsukka LGA in recent times.

For those who have visited Adada House, a monumental location significant, not just to Nsukka LGA but to Enugu North Senatorial Zone, at large, given its strategic posture as the seat of power for the zone, would have noticed, a vast proportion of its surroundings lying waste over the years due to its undulating inaccessible topography.

Today, it has taken the thoughtfulness of the Capacity Mayor of Nsukka LGA to move to reclaim that massive land space to bring more space of land to the disposal of the LGA, for future use.

And it is believed that the project, when completed, would make available, many plots of land which the government can put to any use.

Yet, to many, this intervention, like some others recorded by this impactful administration goes to underscore Hon. Barr. Ugwueze's interest in the future well-being of Nsukka LGA.

*Tackling Illegality And High-handedness, Head On, In Hon. Barr. Ugwueze's Nsukka LGA*

The Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, yesterday, Saturday, the 10th of July, 2020, made a bold statement against illegality and high-handedness in his Local Government Area of jurisdiction when he ordered the arrest of the owner and the confiscation of a bulldozer used to demolish blocks of shops in Ikpa Market, Nsukka, without due authorization and processes.

The perpetrators of the unacceptable act, according to sources, had arrived the market in the late evening of Friday, the 9th of July and with the heavy duty machine, had, working through the night, brought down in rubbles, some blocks of shops without recourse to neither the LGA authorities nor the Police.

Rather, according to the security operatives of the market, who claimed they were intimidated and overpowered by the invaders, the demolition which lasted into the night of Friday, was done in a commando manner.

According to them, all efforts to wade them off or, better still, make them show papers authorizing the dastardly act were astutely rebuffed.

In the process, the men went ahead to bring the blocks of shops to the ground, destroying goods of some of the shop owners worth millions of naira.

This act strained nerves and threatened the peace and security of the market as the victims geared up for a showdown.

However, on getting wind of the ugly development, the Executive Chairman of Nsukka LGA, a sound Lawyer of 20 years standing, following due process, in the morning of Saturday, made an entry at the Area Command Nsukka, who in turn dispatched a team of police men to the troubled market.

The Area Command did not stop there, as the Area Commander himself joined the team, underscoring the gravity of the act and enhancing the dexterity of the police in tackling the knotty operation.

The Mayor, who also joined the police to the market, also had a personal assessme

*Enough Of Playing To The Gallery In Enugu Enugu State...!!!*

We have only one leader in Enugu State; meaning that we have only one leader in Enugu North, Enugu East and Enugu West Senatorial Districts; Enugu State is not in any form of competition, not to talk of the seventeen LGAs of Enugu State.

In Each of the 17 LGAs in Enugu State, we have effective leadership.

At this juncture in our checkered history, we, verifiably, have the most effective LGA leadership. This is unequivocally exemplified by the unprecedented result-oriented ALGON, under the leadership of, Hon Chief Solomon Izuchukwu Onah, the ALGON Chairman of Enugu State; the National PRO, ALGON and the incumbent Executive Chairman of Udenu LGA.

*The Best Governor in Nigeria,* His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Dr. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Executive Governor of Enugu State, remains the undisputable Leader of Nsukka Land, Nkanu Land, (including Nike and Isi-Uzo); Enugu West, Enugu State, and indeed, South East.

And sooner than you can imagine, he will, by the grace of that same God, into whose hand he handed Enugu State over, become the 'numero uno', (number one), in Nigeria.

Just Stay tuned.

Over time, a breakaway faction of Keke Riders Association in Nsukka LGA had been at daggers drawn with the leadership of the group in the LGA which it claimed had long outlived its constitutional tenure.

The two factions which had each other by the jugular also had issues of ticketing, other revenues, which group collects what amount, etc, causing rifts between them.

However, on the 8th of July, 2021, the Capacity Mayor, Hon. Barr. Cosmas Ugwueze, in another demonstration of his conflict resolution attributes, convened a meeting of the warring factions and nipped the protracted crisis.

In attendance were the leadership of the two factions, the DPO, the DSS, the Vice Chairman of the Council, the Secretary of the Council, the Supervisor for Works and Transport and other government officials.

Below is the communique arising from the peace parley.
