Governor Umahi promised to deliver Ebonyi for Buhari in 2019
The governor, who spoke when a delegation from Ohaozara, Onicha and Ivo federal constituency as well as leaders from Onicha-East constituency paid him a New Year homage in Ohaozara LGA, praised the president for having high regard for the state unlike APC members from Ebonyi who do not care about the people’s welfare.

The governor said: “When you have broom in Ebonyi state where will you sweep? Is there any place to be swept? Is Ebonyi not clean? Is Ebonyi not neat?
“There is nothing to sweep. They have to take it (broom) to places that are dirty and continue their sweeping. But in Ebonyi state and because of the kind of people in APC, our people doing handiwork have refused to produce brooms again. So, there are no brooms in Ebonyi state because we have made everywhere to be very clean.
“When you’re walking on our roads you will be seeing yourself because the light will be on. So you will be seeing your shadow on the road. So there is nothing to sweep.
“We have seen the need for unity in Ebonyi state. We’ve seen the need for equity and fair play in the land of Ebonyi and God is helping us so much in this direction because that’s why we have absolute peace in Ebonyi state and that’s why there is no other party.
“People have been deceiving our people for years. Every time they deceive our people and they have had opportunity to buy houses in Abuja. Whom have they sent to school? Whom have they paid their school fees? The time of deceit is gone.”For
