Enugu State Vision 4:2020 Revised Env4:2020 Medium GOVERNMENT OF ENUGU STATE OF NIGERIA ENUGU STATE VISION 4:2020 REVISED ENV4:2020 MEDIUM TERM IMPLEMENTATION PLAN 2012 – 2015 Sustaining Development in Enugu State: from Vision to Reality “I see an Enugu State where government is open, accountable and responsive to the genuine yearnings of the people and takes action to improve the lives of the people... ... I see an Enugu State where healthcare, quality education, potable water, electricity, transportation, communication will become available to all our people no matter where they are in the State... a State where security of life and property will be a reality” Sullivan I. Chime FORWARD The first tenure of my administration definitely provided the opportunity for me to work together with the good people of Enugu State to fundamentally change the face of our State and the fortunes of our citizens. During the period under review, I believe that we have restored the faith of our people in the ability of government to work solely for the welfare of the citizens, and the ability of public officials to keep to their word. The 4-Point Agenda of my administration provided the basis for developing the State Vision 4:2020 and its first Implementation Plan which was vigorously implemented during these years. The programmes and projects implemented were driven by the Key Development Needs (KDN) of 472 Communities as articulated in the Visit-Every-Community Project (VEC). The VEC document, therefore, provided the baseline data that guided the development of the First Enugu Vision 4:2020 Implementation Plan which has been revised in line with emerging development challenges which our administration intends to confront during my second tenure. The second tenure of my administration is not only going to provide us another opportunity to consolidate and build on our past achievements but will also redefine and refocus our strategies more effectively. This has guided us towards revising the State Medium Term Implementation Plan in such a way as to support the expansion of our resource base and improve our ability to meet the key development needs of our people. To this effect, the Medium Term Implementation Plan has been revised to cover 2012 – 2015 and to adequately address all emerging new ideas and innovative programmes that will drive the process of transforming the State from Public to Private Sector economy. This review was enriched by series of consultations with members of the State Executive Council, our Development Partners, Civil Society Organizations, Traditional Rulers and Town Unions. Their inputs contributed to improving the quality of this document. Education, health, agriculture, infrastructure, culture and tourism, industrialization, civil service reform and other sectors are among the main thrusts of my current tenure and we are ensuring that adequate budgetary allocations are made to these sectors. Additionally, effective monitoring is already in place to ensure that our children, women and all other people of the State derive maximum benefits from these investments in all sectors. The Revised Plan is, therefore, a well articulated economic blueprint that will direct our efforts toward meeting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and also achieve the goals of our Vision which will place Enugu State among the First Four most developed economies in Nigeria. The Plan document contains major policy thrusts, strategies, targets and fiscal projections for the Plan period and all stakeholders are advised to read the document. Finally, let me, on behalf of the good people of Enugu State, thank our Development Partners including, but not limited to, DFID, UNICEF, WHO, CIDJAP, Women for Women International, Private Sector, Civil Society and Faith-Based Organizations for their wonderful contributions to our reform programmes for sustainable development in Enugu State. We will continue to count on their funding and technical support to enable us actualize our Vision of transforming the State from public to private sector-driven economy. SULLIVAN IHEANACHO CHIME Governor, Enugu State ACKNOWLEDGEMENT We wish to use this opportunity to show our gratitude to His Excellency Sullivan I. Chime, the Governor of Enugu State for providing the State with a clear policy direction through the 4-Point Agenda and his inaugural speech which guided us in producing this Plan document. Let me also acknowledge the inputs of my colleagues, the Honourable Commissioners, through the content and quality of their workplans and the VEC Report which formed the basis for the revision of the Plan. Our sincere appreciation also goes to all the Stakeholders including our Development Partners; DFID, UNICEF, WHO, CIDJAP, Women for Women International, Civil Society Organizations, Traditional Rulers and Town Unions for their most valued inputs and recommendations which contributed to improving and enriching the quality of this economic blueprint. We will always remain specially indebted to our valued Donor Partner DFID-SPARC for both its technical and financial assistance towards producing a quality assured Enugu State Revised Medium Term Implementation Plan 2012 – 2015. We look forward to continuous cordial relationship with DFID-SPARC in sustaining our reform programmes and improving service delivery in the State. Finally, we want to thank all the staff of Enugu State Economic Planning Commission and Ministry of Budget and Planning for their collective efforts towards ensuring the production of this document. Let me assure you of our continued commitment to improving our planning and budgeting processes for prudency, accountability and transparency in Public Financial Management. K.O.K AGBOWO ESQ Hon. Commissioner, Ministry of Budget and Planning EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OVERVIEW The administration of His Excellency Sullivan I. Chime has for the past six years implemented a good number of people-oriented programmes and projects designed to entrench good governance in the State. The Government has kept faith with realistic planning and budgeting at the State and Local Government levels. This, to a large extent, in addition to effective expenditure management and performance monitoring, accounted for the observable transformation going on in the State. The Government and people of Enugu State has continued and will continue to believe in Mr. President’s Transformation Agenda which is aimed at elevating the country to be among the 20 Most Industrialized Nations by the year 2020. However, the Vision of Enugu State remains to be among the first four most economically and self sufficient States of the Federation by the year 2020. The goals of the State vision include but not limited to the following:- • Provision of adequate infrastructural facilities like roads, electricity, water, housing, etc. that will make the State a destination for local and foreign investors. • Achievement of net self-sufficiency in food production by the year 2015 and export 80% of total output by 2020 as well as develop robust industrial sector that will generate employment and achieve 80% utilization of local raw materials to produce globally competitive products by the year 2020. • Development of an efficient, quality and accessible health and education systems which meet the MDGs, and will make the State a world class destination for quality medical and educational services. • Improvement of Internally Generated Revenue and reduction of the dependence on Federally Collectable Revenue by at least 50% of the annual resource envelope of the State by the year 2020. • Achievement of governance that is inclusive, accountable, transparent and responsive to ensuring the security of lives and property, access to justice and balanced gender development that will meet the genuine needs of the citizens of the State. • Development of a coal-based energy sector that takes care of our domestic consumption by 2015 and 80% export by 2020 and ensure eco-friendly environment for sustainable and equitable development. The State’s high level Policy Framework, the 4-Point Agenda, provided the base for developing ENVision 4:2020 and its first Implementation Plan covering 2010 – 2013. The plan has been implemented for 2 years now (2010 – 2011) and the following outcomes have been delivered; • Road and road-related infrastructure • Better educated, healthy and productive citizens • More secured and responsible citizens • Clean and eco-friendly environment • Robust and Dynamic Civil Service • Private Sector driven economy. PLAN PERFORMANCE (2010 – 2011) The Review of the Economy The period under review witnessed relative growth in the State economy as evidenced in increment in the IGR as well as inflow of local and international investors. The huge investment made in the construction and rehabilitation of key physical infrastructure grew aggregate investment by about 30% during the reporting period. The State’s IGR rose from N4,755,471,509.43 in 2007 to N9,888,423,723.13 in 2011 representing 108% increase. The per capita income also grew from $307.60 (N46,140) in 2007 to $374.24 (N56,136.36) in 2011 representing 22% increase (2007 UNDP Human Development Report for Nigeria and drawn from the national annual percentage growth rate of per capita income at 4%). There is also improvement in easy of doing business and drastic reduction in the crime rate in Enugu State (BECANS Report by AIAE). All these provided enabling environment for the private sector development in the State. Analysis of Revenue and Expenditure Performance The macro economic framework for Enugu State Vision 4:2020 1st Implementation Plan provided the fiscal policy, objectives and targets which guided the preparation of the budgets for 2010 and 2011 fiscal years. The performance of the plan during the period under review witnessed remarkable improvement in terms of revenue inflow, releases to MDAs, physical achievements and impact. Specifically, the aggregate projected revenue in the plan is N172,721,978,074, comprising recurrent revenue and capital receipts, while the sum of N176,600,804,013 was appropriated for 2010 and 2011 fiscal years by State and Local Governments. The amount appropriated exceeded the planned revenue by 2%.

  • Public Library Legislation Implementation Strategies And
    Public Library Legislation Implementation Strategies and Library Development in Abia, Akwa-Ibom and Imo States of Nigeria Anne Anthony Edem1, Felix Mmanuoma Eke2 & Ima-M. Patrick Usoro3, Federal University of Technology Owerri Library1,2. Readers Services, University of Uyo Library3 anthonyedem [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Purpose: The work examines the relationship between public library legislation implementation strategies and library development in the three states of Abia, Akwa-Ibom and Imo. Design: Survey research design was employed. Structured questionnaire was used as instrument to elicit responses from 320 librarians in the three libraries under studied. A-3 point scale response option of Agree (A) Disagree (D) and Undecided (U) was used in measuring responses to research questions, while the data collected was analyzed using simple percentage (table 2). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out on the scores from the three states to identify differences in the extent of implementation strategies of Public Library Legislation (table 3). While the relationship between the extent of implementation and library development in the three states was computed using Pearson product moment correlation co-efficient (r) table 4. Findings: The study discovered among other things that there is no significant difference between the implementation strategies of public library legislation and library development in the three states understudied as the library boards of these states do not function commensurate to the appropriate legislations. Research Limitations: The findings of this study will help to arouse genuine and conscious action plan which when scrupulously implemented will benefit Library administrators, students and researchers.

  • Assessing the Impact of Military Rule on Imo State, 1976-1999
    International Journal of Research in Humanities and Social Studies Volume 2, Issue 9, September 2015, PP 40-53 ISSN 2394-6288 (Print) & ISSN 2394-6296 (Online) The Military in Politics: Assessing the Impact of Military Rule on Imo State, 1976-1999 Kelechi C. Ubaku1*, Emmanuel U. Ezeifedi1, Solomon S. Duru1 1Department of History and International Studies, Imo State University, Owerri, Nigeria ABSTRACT Nigeria is one of the nations of the world with a history of military domination in her political activities. The earliest incursion of the military in the political affairs of the African polity was encouraged by the upheavals which encrusted the political atmosphere of the country in the first republic. Traditionally, the acquisition of power by the military at the centre (federal level) automatically means the presence of the military at the helm of political affairs in the federating units, as military personnel were usually appointed as governors or administrators at the state level. Periodically, this trend was felt in Imo state from creation in 1976 through 1999 when the military officially relinquished power and recognized a democratically elected government in Nigeria. Numerous impacts were created on Imo state, during this period, by the various serving military governments in the administration of the state, and the examination of these impacts therefore forms the central discourse of this study. Adopting historical methodology of data gathering which encouraged ample utilization of primary and secondary sourced materials in the study, findings, however, revealed that in as much as the developmental woes of the state, within the stipulated period, was attributed to the political activities of the military governors – a maxim held and promoted presently in some quarters, there were still elements of benefits that accrued from the activities of military governments in Imo state.

  • Anambra-Imo Conference
    Image not found or type unknown Anambra-Imo Conference EPHRAIM UZODINMA OKPULOR Ephraim Uzodinma Okpulor The Anambra-Imo Conference in the Eastern Nigeria Union Mission of the West-Central Africa Division existed from 2003 through 2014, at which point it was divided into Imo Conference and the Anambra Administrative Unit. The Anambra-Imo Conference comprised the territory of Anambra and Imo States in eastern Nigeria.1 The final report of the Anambra-Imo Conference listed 5,917 members in 86 churches and 67 companies2 among a population of 1,473,022.3 Imo state is one of the 36 states of Nigeria. It was carved out of the East Central state on February 3, 1976.4 It is bordered by Abia State on the east, Anambra State on the north, and Rivers State on the south and has an estimated population of 4.8 million people with an area of 14,323 square kilometers (5,530 square miles). It is a predominantly an Igbo speaking state with minor differences in dialects.5 Origin of Seventh-day Adventist Work in the Territory The indigenes of Imo State are predominantly Christians of different denominations but mostly Roman Catholics, though a few practice traditional religions. The history of Adventism in Imo State is scanty. “Efforts have been made to get close to the most authentic version but it has not been easy because of their disjointed nature.”6 One version has it that the “church came to Imo territory through some itinerant preachers who were mostly civil servants and literature evangelists.” Another version said it was from “the fishermen from the coastal area of the state and that the first convert was one Nwachukwu Ogbuokiri of Amuzu in Mbaise who left the Roman Catholic Church to join the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1927.” From that earliest beginning, the church spread to other parts of the state.

  • Information Kit for 2015 General Elections
    INFORMATION KIT FOR 2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS 1 FOREWARD The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has come a long way since 2011 in making the Nigerian electoral process transparent, as a way of ensuring that elections are free, fair and credible and that they measure up to global best standards of democratic elections. We have done this not only by reforms that have been in the electoral procedures, but also in the way informationon the process is made available for public use and awareness. Even though the yearnings of many Nigerians for a perfect electoral process may not have been fulfilled yet, our reforms since 2011 has ensured incremental improvement in the quality and credibility of elections that have been conducted. Beginning with some of the Governorship elections conducted by INEC since 2013, the Commission began to articulate Information Kits for the enlightenment of the public, especially election observers and journalists who may need some background information in order to follow and adequately undertstand the electoral process. With the 2015 General Elections scheduled to take place nationwide, this document is unique, in that it brings together electoral information about all the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). I am optimistic that this kit will contribute to the body of knowledge about the Nigerian electoral system and enhance the transparency of the 2015 elections.

  • A CRITICAL REVIEW of the EVOLUTION of KINGSHIP SYSTEM AMONG the IGBO of NIGERIA Dons Eze Agency for Community and Social Development Project, Enugu, Nigeria
    International Journal of Health and Psychology Research Vol.3, No.2, pp.10-20, November 2015 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE EVOLUTION OF KINGSHIP SYSTEM AMONG THE IGBO OF NIGERIA Dons Eze Agency for Community and Social Development Project, Enugu, Nigeria. ABSTRACT: In this paper, we look at the evolution of the kingship system among the Igbo people of Nigeria. From a republican form of administration where the Council of Elders played pivotal roles in determining the political governance of the people, the Igbo are made to adopt a kingship system that confers political authority on a single individual. Aside of the initial hiccups that arose while introducing the system there is a further problem of how to institutionalize the kingship system in a largely republican character of Igbo society. Here, we take a cursory look at the evolution of the kingship system in Igboland and the criteria set out by successive administrations for selecting and recognizing the Igbo king. We then compare the Igbo king with his counterparts in other parts of Nigeria, in particular, the Hausa/Fulani and the Yoruba kings. We conclude that even in trying to meet with the ideal, the Igbo king still mirrors the republican character of traditional Igbo society. KEYWORDS: Republicanism, Warrant Chief, Kingship, Chieftaincy, Traditional Ruler. INTRODUCTION The way and means people can live together in peace to pursue a better life for themselves has remained a problem since man found himself in society. When the British came to Nigeria as colonial overlords, they sought for an easy way to rule the country without committing much resource into the system.

  • A History of the Republic of Biafra
    A History of the Republic of Biafra The Republic of Biafra lasted for less than three years, but the war over its secession would contort Nigeria for decades to come. Samuel Fury Childs Daly examines the history of the Nigerian Civil War and its aftermath from an uncommon vantage point – the courtroom. Wartime Biafra was glutted with firearms, wracked by famine, and administered by a government that buckled under the weight of the conflict. In these dangerous conditions, many people survived by engaging in fraud, extortion, and armed violence. When the fighting ended in 1970, these survival tactics endured, even though Biafra itself disappeared from the map. Based on research using an original archive of legal records and oral histories, Daly catalogues how people navigated conditions of extreme hardship on the war front and shows how the conditions of the Nigerian Civil War paved the way for the long experience of crime that followed. samuel fury childs daly is Assistant Professor of African and African American Studies, History, and International Comparative Studies at Duke University.

  • Solid Mineral Resources of ENUGU State: a Review
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2013): 6.14 | Impact Factor (2014): 5.611 Solid Mineral Resources of ENUGU State: A Review Onyeabor Chinenye Florence Department of Geology and Mining, Enugu State University of Science and Technology Abstract: Enugu state, southeastern Nigeria is endowed with many natural resources which include coal, oil shale, gas, glass sands, ironstone, clay minerals, limestone, gypsum and alum. They occur in various formations of the state which includes Enugu Shale, Mamu Formation, Ajali Formation, Nsukka Formation and Imo shale. The minerals presently under exploitation are clay, sand, ironstone with others being under exploited or found in an uneconomic reserve. Mining of coal ceased since the 1990’s hence reducing drastically the economic hub of the state. The return to coal exploitation and other solid minerals will enhance the economic output of the state. Keywords: Glass sands; coal; ironstone; limestone; mineral 1. Introduction Enugu state is one of the key states in Southeastern Nigeria. Enugu has served as capital of various defunct geopolitical regions known as Eastern Region, East Central State and Anambra State. The state is situated within longitudes 60501E and long.70521E and latitudes 60001N and lat.70101N. The entire areal extent is 7,161 sq. kilometers and the estimated population is 4,267,837 people (Census 2006). Presently Enugu State consists of 17 local government areas (fig.1).

  • 1 Social Capital (Pilot) Survey in Enugu State, Nigeria By
    SOCIAL CAPITAL (PILOT) SURVEY IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA BY NOBLE J. NWEZE Centre for Rural Development and Cooperatives University of Nigeria, Nsukka NIGERIA [email protected] July 2002 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study sets out to evaluate the Integrated Questionnaire for the Measurement of Social Capital. Its purpose was to summarize the experience gathered in the field with a view to highlighting which parts of the questionnaire were effective based on interpretation of basic frequency counts for each question, reported in the form of bar charts for each relevant question. The questionnaire was based on four previous World Bank social capital surveys in many locations. The survey was carried out in five different locations, representing the three Senatorial Zones in Enugu State, Nigeria. It was preceded by a training/orientation meeting via a videoconference at The World Bank Country Office in Abuja, Nigeria, during which lead researchers were familiarized with the survey tool. Later six research assistants were trained to administer the tool in the state. The questionnaire is divided into six sections reflecting the structural and cognitive dimensions of social capital. Data were grouped and tabulated using statistical software. The section on groups and networks were too detailed and left out virtually nothing. Consequently, the volume of data generated was enormous reflecting all aspects of the issues involved. However, the process of data generation was time wasting and cumbersome for both the subjects and the enumerators. This had deleterious effect on the quality and validity of some information as some busy respondents gave spurious answers in other to be free.
