“Even as we all work towards finishing strong, we must continue to thank God for giving us a God fearing and people oriented Governor, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa; who always listen to his people and doing his bid to develop the state. So no matter what we have to do, being able to achieve peace is very important in order for the Governor to achieve his aim even though there is still a lot to be done in our land.”
