No more Monday sit at home in Enugu – Gov Mba

Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, has said there will no longer be sit-at-home in the state from Monday, June 5, 2023.
He stated this on Thursday, saying the sit at home was adversely affecting creativity, entrepreneurship and productivity in the state.

MBA said, “The idea behind sitting at home on Monday, the first working and business day of the week, is abominable and antithetical to greatness and the spirit of industry we profess to have inherited from our forebears. This cannot be us. Tufiakwa (God forbid). It does colossal damage to us.”
He expressed the government’s readiness “to engage in dialogue with people, who have genuine grievances towards bringing lasting peace and security to Enugu State”.
The governor also called on President Bola Tinubu to release detained Nnamdi Kanu to quicken the much-needed healing process in Nigeria.
Mbah made the declaration while listing out the decisions reached at the end of his first security council meeting with the heads of all the security agencies at the Government House, Enugu, on Thursday.
The governor reminded the people of Enugu that he had hit the ground running on the day of his inauguration by signing three Executive Orders for the good governance of the state.

He said,“There is no time to waste. The clock has started ticking on the mandate you gave me and deliverables I promised,” he stated.
“A time comes in the lives of a people when they must decide whether they genuinely want to move forward or remain stuck with the conditions of their underdevelopment.
“The creativity and sense of industry of Ndi Igbo are remarkable. Our DNA is wired with commercial and entrepreneurial prowess.
“If this is what we are known by, then it becomes inconsistent with reality that the spirit of entrepreneurship, commerce and creativity are killed every Monday in our land. Our restless spirit of industry abhors laxity and indolence.”
