Viewers Corner’s correspondent learnt that Governor David Umahi’s government organized a program called software training program and the participants were given 200,000 naira at the end of the program each to set up a software programming outfit of their choice in the state or elsewhere but our (Viewers Corner) findings on this issue shows that this is another means of either embezzling fund or money being spend carelessly and recklessly.
Some of these leaders do not know what to do in their various states, if Governor David Umahi wants to set up a software training institute in his state, that would be very fine but it has to be done nicely. How can anyone learn real software course for only four days and at the end, he or she is given 200,000 naira to establish such outfit? This is not how it should be done therefore we believe that something is wrong somewhere. It is just unfortunate that some leaders in power are playing on the intelligence of the voters who stood hours under the sun and rain trying to cast their votes for someone they thought would lead them rightly so that they can have a better means of livelihood but immediately these politicians enter into power, they are singing a different tune altogether. This is already happening in Governor David Umahi’s government which is too bad.
Our opinion on this is that if Umahi’s government wants to create a software training institute, that would be great but do it properly in a way that would benefit the people of Ebonyi state, invest more on it or you can send the youths of Ebonyi state to a real software training institute and after graduation, they would be useful to themselves and also to the society. Again, the 200,000 naira Umahi allegedly gave to some of these people he claimed to have completed this course in just four days is another economic waste. The Ebonyi state people are wise now and nobody can fool them again so we advise Governor David Umahi once again to please do his homework nicely so that he can be in the good books of people in Ebonyi state and also across the country, Nigeria.
