The Eternal Brothers Club has hailed Governor Francis Nwifuru for endorsing its Vice President, Hon. Chidi Aloh as the incoming Executive Chairman of Abakaliki Local Government Area of the state, describing him as a “True Builder”.
The club led by its President, Hon. Charles Akpu-Enika made the exultation on Tuesday during a solidarity/ congratulatory visit to Aloh who emerged the All Progressives Congress (APC) Candidate for Abakaliki LGA, in the forthcoming council polls.
The Vice Chairman of the Club’s Board of Trustees (BOT) Hon. Uche Muoka led the gauntlet of appreciation to the governor, describing him as a “True Builder of Men”.
“Shaba” as he is popularly called in the Ebonyi political and social circles,.said that with the endorsement, the governor has fulfilled the biblical injunction of “lifting a man from the heap of dirts to glory”
“This fulfils the injunction of taking a man from a point of nowhere to somewhere.
“The governor embodies the true essence of building because real builders start from the scratch,; clears the area, gathers sand and water and before one knows it, the building stands.
“This is what God has used the governor to do on Chidi and I pray that such becomes our portion in Jesus Name.”.
Supporting Muoka’s assertion, the Treasurer of the Club’s BOT, Hon. Maxwell Umahi, said that Nwifuru has taught the world how best to build people.
“You don’t build someone who is already made or built but take someone on ground zero to the higher or highest level or peak.
“The Governor knows that you will do well in the position and we would all continue celebrating, supporting and praying for you.”.
The “Mayor of Urban Community” as he is known in the Ebonyi political and social circles, expressed delight that what evaded Aloh in the past has now come to him on a platter and in fulfilment of God’s wish.
“Years ago, we, including the club’s President fought that the chairmanship of the LGA be zoned to the Izzi Unughu area but because it was not God’s wish, it did not work.
“Now, God’s wish has manifested and we are celebrating that it fell on our brother Aloh.”
The President of the Club, Hon. Charles Akpu-Enika thanked God and Nwifuru for endorsing Aloh, describing the development as a sign of good tidings to the club.
Akpu-Enika popularly known as the “Game Changer” in the Ebonyi political and social circles, described Aloh as a courageous, sincere, truthful and accommodating fellow.
” I have known Aloh since 2013 and declare unequivocally that if saints would be picked from Izzi land, he will be at the forefront.
“I advise members to emulate the worthy virtues Aloh exhibits and shun acts that would work against the overall interest of the club”.
Chief Kenneth Agu, who spoke on behalf of the club’s patrons thanked members for their love and solidarity to Aloh, noting that they were in turn preparing their own dish of upliftment from God.
Aloh in his remarks, thanked the members for their support and love, noting that their presence has buoyed him to prepare physically and mentally for the onerous task ahead.
“i pledge to remain the person you all know and related with and will do all within my powers to take the club to its desired destination and achieve all its aspirations.”
The club made cash and material presentations to support Aloh’s cause and in unison, prayed for God’s guidance and protection upon him as he mounts the saddle.
