ABUJA, NIGERIA — Enugu State Governor, Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah, is among the distinguished Nigerian leaders being honoured today, Thursday, September 3, 2026, as the Daily Times Nigeria celebrates its historic 100th anniversary with the DTN@100 Times Heroes Awards in Abuja.
The centenary ceremony is scheduled to hold at the THISDAY Dome, Abuja, bringing together prominent political leaders, governors, business executives, traditional rulers, public servants and other distinguished Nigerians.
Governor Mbah has been listed among the recipients from Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones and is billed to receive the Outstanding Governor, South East Award, recognising his leadership and developmental contributions in Enugu State.
Earlier reports on the DTN@100 honours had also identified Mbah for the Innovation and Infrastructure Award, with the organisers highlighting his administration’s investments in infrastructure, governance, security and urban renewal.
The recognition places Governor Mbah alongside several other high-profile Nigerians, including President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, former President Goodluck Jonathan, former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Aliko Dangote, Jim Ovia, Akinwumi Adesina, George Akume, Hope Uzodinma, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Umo Eno, Umaru Bago and the Ooni of Ife, among others.
The Daily Times, which turned 100 on June 26, 2026, is using the centenary celebration to reflect on a century of journalism and national development while recognising individuals and institutions considered to have made significant contributions to Nigeria. The theme of the celebration is “A Century of Truth, A Future of Impact.”
For Enugu State, Governor Mbah’s recognition represents another national spotlight on his administration’s development agenda, particularly its emphasis on infrastructure, innovation, urban renewal and institutional transformation.
As the centenary event unfolds in Abuja today, attention will be focused on the presentation of the honours and the Governor’s participation in the historic celebration.
