The PDP governorship candidate said he will reactivate moribund industries and make agriculture profitable for Enugu State.
Peter Mbah said, “We will insulate Enugu State from the existential threats being faced by the national economy by creating enabling environment for investors, making agriculture profitable, scaling up production by establishing industries and reactivation of moribund ones.
He further ‘assured them that my administration will be driven by the mission to transform the economy, engender socio-economic shift, change the narrative and make the state a destination for investment.
Earlier, the convener, former commissioner in the state, Chief Joe Mmamel said Mbah “is the right candidate to partner with for the transformation of our beloved state.”
He appealed that the PDP governorship candidate creates more employment by resuscitating the defunct Ezeagu Premier Cashew industry, and build more access roads when I become governor.
