Dr. Peter Mbah, Governor of Enugu State
By Olalekan Soyombo
When this year’s NBA International Conference was shifted to Enugu, many Lawyers grumbled and expressed fear as to why should the Eastern part of the country, riddled with violence and insecurities, remained an option.
Afterwards, the association was assured of the best, and we moved on, though with doubt, but in the spirit of optimism that our association remains ours, the best of it must be explored regardless!
Indeed, Enugu City Disappointed Us
Yes, disappointed to see a clean city and well coordinated people; disappointed to see a city with a good layout and infrastructural development; disappointed to see a well arranged community of people who are friendly and accommodating; disappointed to see classes of hotels, resorts across the town of Enugu, and above all, a well constructed and projected first class international conferences centre. All in the City of Enugu.
Aside from Lagos, no state in the Southwest can compete with the Coal City Of Enugu in terms of development. My colleagues who are reading this would attest to this fact. Their transportation system is excellent, well arranged and orderly (although extortionate), thus reveals that the Easterners know what they want, and they are committed to achieving it excellently.

This is without prejudice to the efforts of our Governors here in the Southwest Nigeria, but more passion should be put into place by making infrastructural development a priority beyond petty considerations.
Enugu is greatly missed!
