PETER “THE ROCK” MBAH: TOMORROW IS HERE

BY RICH ONOS OBIE

Tomorrow is a temporal construct of the relative future; literally of the day after the current day(today), or figuratively of future periods or times. Tomorrow is important in time perception because it is the first direction the arrow of time takes human on Earth. Today is the tomorrow you talked about yesterday. Therefore, today makes tomorrow. Tomorrow connotes Forward Movement, Advancement and Hope for Greater things to come. This is the concept behind the mantra of Peter “The Rock” Mbah as he proclaims TOMORROW IS HERE! This directly implies that forwardness, continuity and consolidation of the gains made by his soon to be predecessor (Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, the Executive Governor of Enugu State) is here. Deep thinking, strong mantra from Peter “The Rock” Mbah, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) 2023 Governorship Candidate; with the Vision: *”to make Enugu one of the top 3 States in Nigeria in terms of Gross Domestic Product(GDP)- with a proposed growth from $4.4 Billion to $30Billion and achieve a zero percent rate in the poverty head count index.”* In addition, his Mission is *”to deliver quality, people focused governance by making Enugu the preferred destination for investment, business, tourism and living “.* These are salient and bodacious Vision and Mission Statements coming from the man whose name- Peter means Rock. Rock as a personality, refers to someone who is strong, stable and dependable.

He is bringing rare business, entrepreneurial, economic solutions and political experiences to bear in his bid to govern Enugu in 2023 under the umbrella of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Peter Mbah has been reeling out his blueprint and template for Enugu as he intends undertakes ambitious projects which will be largely driven by private sector enabled development; enhancing massive infrastructural development and massively invest in agricultural activities which constitutes over 40 percent of the state’s GDP, besides opening up industries that would tap into the mineral resources in the state such as limestone.
