Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State on Friday inaugurated a befitting Press Centre for the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in the state.
The facility was newly remodelled by the Ugwuanyi administration.
The remodelling of the NUJ Enugu Press Centre by Gov. Ugwuanyi’s administration is the first intervention on the facility in the last 30 years.
Gov. Ugwuanyi, after inaugurating the remodeled Press Centre named after him as “Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi NUJ Enugu Press Centre”, inspected the projects executed at the centre by his administration and announced additional interventions that would make the facility more conducive for the journalists and the general public, amid jubilation.
Udekwe described Gov. Ugwuanyi as a jinx breaker and promise keeper, stressing that his imprints in the centre will remain indelible in the history of journalism profession in Enugu State in particular and the country in general.
Speaking on the project, the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Greg Nnaji disclosed that the state government’s intervention was sequel to Gov. Ugwuanyi’s visit to the centre which was hitherto in a deplorable condition.
Engr. Nnaji, who described the project as phase one, disclosed that “the last intervention was about three decades ago”, stressing that Gov. Ugwuanyi is a man with the Midas touch in everything he does.
The State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon. Augustine Nnamani and Dr. Tony Okam witnessed the event.
