This is highly recommended and worthy of appreciation.

But the State Government should adopt electronic attendance system and employ more doctors, encourage the deployment of Assistant Medical Officers, and facilitate specialist visits from nearby teaching hospitals. In addition, engaging corps doctors to work alongside the existing medical officers will significantly improve the quality of medical care and promote stronger community participation.

Community participation has been one of the major challenges in the health sector in Ebonyi State. Many of our people do not visit hospitals early; instead, they prefer herbal concoctions and often present to health facilities only at the late stages of their illnesses.

Furthermore, involving volunteers, community leaders, religious leaders, school heads, ward councillors, DC coordinators, local government chairpersons, and the State Ministry of Health will help drive continuous health education on the importance of early medical check-ups and the utilization of general hospitals.

The Vanco Flyover has officially become the biggest joke in Ebonyi State—a three-year construction marathon with no finish line in sight. What should have been a straightforward infrastructural project has devolved into a monument of stagnation, waste, and breathtaking incompetence. Every block, every pillar, every rusting rod tells the same story: this government has no clue what it’s doing.

For three whole years, Ebonyians have watched the same lifeless structure sitting in the heart of the state like an abandoned carcass. No progress, no completion, no accountability—just endless noise from government apologists who somehow think scaffolds and sand heaps qualify as “achievements.” In a state where citizens are struggling with unemployment, inflation, and poor public services, the government still expects applause for a project that hasn’t moved beyond its halfway point since 3 years.

Meanwhile, across Nigeria, other states are completing multi-billion-naira roads, bridges, markets, and flyovers in record time. Ebonyi alone seems trapped in a cycle of half-baked projects and recycled excuses. Instead of infrastructure, the government is constructing press releases. Instead of progress, they are building propaganda. The Vanco Flyover is now a perfect metaphor for this administration—loud at the beginning, confused in the middle, and completely lost at the end.

What makes the whole situation even more insulting is the attempt by government aides and praise-singers to package failure as accomplishment. They post pictures of iron rods, cement bags, and stagnant pillars as if the world cannot see the reality on the ground. They celebrate “ongoing work” as if three years of motionless concrete is a technological breakthrough. It is shamelessness elevated to an art form.

The truth is simple and painful: the Vanco Flyover is not delayed; it is abandoned in slow motion. It has become a permanent fixture of embarrassment—an architectural representation of incompetence. A government that cannot complete a single flyover in three years has no business talking about development, transformation, or progress. If they can’t finish concrete, how will they build a future?

Every time Ebonyians pass that site, they are reminded of what happens when leadership is visionless, distracted, and more interested in PR than performance. Three years later, the Vanco Flyover is not a project—it is a scandal. A disgrace. A daily slap in the face of citizens who deserve far better than the circus currently playing out in the state.

If this is what “development” looks like, then Ebonyi has a long, painful road ahead. And it certainly won’t be on a completed flyover.

Ebonyi’s Roads: Where Potholes Have Permanent Residency

Welcome to Ebonyi State — the only place where roads have more wounds than the people who drive on them. Every trip here is an off-road adventure, whether you signed up for one or not. The government calls it “urban renewal,” but the people know it for what it truly is — a slow-motion demolition of our tires, spines, and patience.

They say Ebonyi is “the salt of the nation.” True — because every rainfall adds more salt to the wounds called roads. These are the same roads that governors and their cronies “award” with fanfare and Facebook captions, only for the first rain to wash away both the asphalt and the lies — leaving behind mud, frustration, and abandonment.

You don’t need to visit the Ministry of Works to see incompetence; just drive through Abakaliki and count how many times you’ll whisper a prayer between one junction and the next. In many rural communities, roads don’t exist — only promises with mud on them. A few days ago, I saw a viral Facebook post showing school-age children wading through thick mud, trying to help traders access their local market. That image alone speaks louder than all the glossy government press releases combined.

Yet, year after year, billions are budgeted for “durable” infrastructure. Durable for whom? The billboards? The irony is bitter: those in power speed over these craters with sirens blaring — as if noise could fill potholes. Meanwhile, ordinary citizens endure free daily physiotherapy sessions on what the government proudly calls “massage roads.”

Until leadership realises that roads are not built with press statements and borrowed cement, Ebonyi will remain a state where development is forever under construction — always promised, rarely delivered, and endlessly photographed.

Happy Natal Anniversary

Hon. Oguzorkanu Offia-Nwali

Today, we do not merely mark the passing of another year; we celebrate the rise of a political force — a leader whose presence has redefined leadership, challenged complacency, and inspired a generation to believe in purposeful governance.

Your birthday is a reminder that leadership, when rooted in principle and guided by vision, can transform destinies. In these trying times, your courage in the face of resistance, your unwavering stand for justice, and your commitment to the people continue to be a beacon for all who dream of a better nation.

You have shown that politics can be noble, that power can be used not for self, but for the voiceless, the forgotten, and the oppressed. Your legacy is not just in the policies you've shaped or the structures you've built — it is in the hope you've restored.

As you celebrate today, may this new chapter strengthen your resolve, deepen your wisdom, and renew your fire to lead with even greater conviction. The future beckons — and history is watching.

Happy Birthday, Hon
May your light never dim.

With unwavering solidarity,
Ebonyi Demon

The Ebonyi State House of Assembly should urgently enact a law imposing strict penalties on individuals involved in the illegal transportation of underage persons out of the state. Furthermore, monitoring committees should be established across all states, chaired by the respective town unions, to ensure proper oversight and enforcement.

The alarming rate at which our underage children are losing their lives in various parts of the country is both heartbreaking and disgraceful. This is a call to duty for every well-meaning Ebonyian to rise and act in defense of our children’s future.
