Many people have wondered how Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Gburugburu) endears himself to every man that comes his way. So many have
expressed surprise why they quickly fell in love with him even
while meeting him for the very first time in their lives.
Truth is that humans are generally modelled by the combination of nature and nurture – two forces which build up human character. One’s character in turn determines his acceptability to people.
For the character, Gburugburu is naturally imbued with the rare trait of humility/meekness one of the qualities dictated by God in the Bible that must characterize the righteous (Galatians 5:22-23). Many have struggled to wear the toga of “humility” but for people like Gburugburu, it runs in their blood. Little wonder the people of the State are clamoring and eager for him to annoint a successor of his nature, to them, they are ready to give their one hundred percent support to whosoever he will give them. This has shown the level of acceptability of his style of leadership.
Despite this, few people that failed to distort his good governance have resorted to propaganda and lies against the humble governor to turn his people against him but have already failed.
The Bible is not mistaking when it declares humility as a desired fruit of the spirit. For it is humility that begets other virtues such as loyalty and love. These in turn are the hallmarks of a public servant.
Indeed, no one can truly serve others without humility. No one can truly serve without having compassion for others who are in need.
As the people of Enugu State are waiting for that person to be in lion building come 2023, the good people of Enugu State are telling the Governor not to be distracted by these people who have resorted to propaganda and lies to destroy his good governance in the state. Let Gburugburu choose the man with God-given virtues for service as his successor and the people of Enugu State will give their total support. No amount of propaganda and lies against the people’s Governor can change their love for the humble lion.
Enugu State is in the hands of God.
Bibian Anekwe News added; “Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.”
