Freezing of government accounts and asset handover directive

The directive
Ordered the freezing of all Enugu State Government bank accounts and directed a full handover of state assets immediately upon taking office, aimed at establishing accountability for the state's financial position at transition.
Real-world effect
Established a baseline financial audit point at the start of the administration, ahead of subsequent public disputes over the state's true debt position.
Economy
Enugu State Harmonised Taxes and Levies (Approved List for Collection) Law, 2026
Implemented
The directive
Enacted a harmonised, single-list tax and levy collection law intended to eliminate roadblocks, unauthorised collections, and multiple taxation across the state.

Security
Launch of the revitalised, armed Enugu State Forest Guard

The directive
Launched a heavily armed, drone-equipped Forest Guard force under a restructured command, procuring over 1,000 rifles, Hilux vehicles, and motorcycles to combat kidnapping, illegal mining/logging, and rural crime.
Real-world effect
Represented the administration's most significant security investment to date, funded partly through the Enugu State Security Trust Fund's ₦20bn target; comprehensive independently verified crime-reduction outcome data was not identified for this entry.
Education
Reassignment of Smart Schools contract sites to new contractors
Implemented
The directive
Ordered the reassignment of Smart Green Schools construction sites previously awarded to Sujimoto Luxury Construction Limited to new contractors, following allegations the original contractor defrauded the state of ₦5.7bn in mobilisation funds.
Real-world effect
Aimed to keep the Smart Schools initiative on track despite the fraud disruption, though it contributed to further delays beyond the administration's original January 2026 completion promise.
Economy
Suspension of illegal daily toll collection
Implemented
The directive
Announced an immediate and indefinite suspension of daily toll collection from traders without lock-up shops, declaring the practice illegal.
Real-world effect
Followed public acknowledgement that rogue revenue agents were extorting residents; accompanied by police arraignment of suspects for forgery and illegal collection and the creation of a standing enforcement task force.
