A 200-level student of the Open University of
Nigeria trek from Aba to Nsukka to honour the
Enugu State Governor-elect, Mr Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.
The Student identified as Mr Joseph Iyoke
disclosed that his trekking from Aba to Nsukka is
to honour the Enugu State Governor-elect, Mr
Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.
Iyoke, who hails from Ukehie in Igboetiti Local
Government Area of the state, said that he took
off
for the journey from CMS road in Aba on May 4, at
about 4: 30 a.m.
We learnt that the trekker arrived Nsukka town at
about 1:02 p.m. on Saturday.
“I did it to honour the governor-elect of Enugu
State; we have been waiting who will become
governor of Enugu State from Nsukka for long
time.
“I started on Monday at 4:30 a.m.; it is a joyful
journey that I took. I was not told by anybody to
embark on it.
“If I have been told by anybody, I could have
withdrawn because it is full of stress. I did it to
know the governor-elect. “
The long trekker, who clads on a polo T-shirt, a
short and white canvass, said Nsukka people had
suffered marginalisation for a long time, adding
that ”it’s somebody from Nsukka that knows the
needs of Nsukka people.
“There is no good roads and electricity in Nsukka;
only the people from Nsukka know the needs of
Nsukka people.
“Nsukka people have been marginalised for a very
long; I am happy that Nsukka man has been
elected governor of Enugu State.
“This small signpost on my hand were many
when
I started this long trekking, I dropped many of
them along the roads I passed.
“At night, I look for where to sleep in order to
continue the journey by 4:30 a.m. the next day.
“Receiving the trekker on arrival in Nsukka, Mr
Paschal Ugwu, the Director-General , Youth to
Youth Campaign for the governor-elect, said that
what Iyoke did was a landmark achievement and
his own best way to celebrate the governor-elect.
“It is not an easy task; it shows the governor-
elect
as man of the people.
“At the appropriate time, he will be taken to the
governor-elect for special hand shake, as
Ugwuanyi has been informed of what Iyoke did to
honour him.
“It was gathered that Iyoke’s arrival in Nsukka
was
greeted with jubilation by his friends, family
members, and well-wishers.
