“We have completed over 500 kilometres of roads across the 13 Local Government Areas,” Nwifuru stated.
“We have built roads connecting to other states and span bridges. I am surprised that some say we have achieved nothing in the last three years.”
He cautioned against online platforms being used to deceive the public and discredit leadership for partisan interests.
“People should not use social media to attack our leaders and dismiss our genuine efforts simply for political gain,” he said.
Regarding political zoning and governance, Nwifuru emphasised efforts to ensure stability and harmony, especially regarding power distribution within the Izhi clan, a major political bloc in Ebonyi North.
“As we approach 2027, we have balanced power among the two main groups in Izhi Land to promote fairness and social justice,” he explained. “No one should oppose this arrangement.”
He also warned against divisive forces trying to destabilise political unity and traditional governance.
“Those opposing the established order are alien elements; they are not part of Izhi norms,” Nwifuru said. “We must stand against them.”
