Frontline accountability watchdog and socio-political pressure group, the Save Enugu Group (SEG), has extended its warmest congratulations to the winners of the recent local government elections in Enugu State, Nigeria, advising the elected council chairmen and councillors to focus on delivering the greater good to the people at the grassroots when sworn-in.

While restating commitment to advocacy for good governance in the state, SEG’s Secretary General, Comrade James Ezema, urged the elected 260 political ward councillorship seats in the 17 Local Government Areas in the state to prioritize the security and welfare of the people, especially during these challenging economic times.

“As leaders at the grassroots, your focus should be on ensuring unparalleled development in rural communities across the state,” SEG emphasized.

“By doing so, the winners will demonstrate their commitment to the well-being of all Enugu State residents.”

As a notable watchdog in the state, the SEG vowed to continue to monitor issues relating to leadership and development in the state, assuring that it remains committed to playing its role in holding government at all levels accountable, ensuring that the interests of the people are protected and promoted.
