Other youths, including tertiary, secondary students as well as primary school pupils are looking up to you to provide quality leadership and mentorship that will transform Nigeria. You cannot afford to fail Nigeria”.
“Let me use this opportunity to enjoin those of you that will be participating as INEC Adhoc staff in the forthcoming general elections to be non-partisan and avoid all actions and omissions that will be detrimental to the smooth conduct of free, fair and credible elections in the state. Abide by all the electoral regulations and be security conscious at all times.”
“I wish to specially mention your approval for fencing of the camp, construction of walkways within the camp and your directive for two additional hostels to be built on camp to address accommodation challenges. Indeed, sir, you have greatly motivated the Service Corps and corps members to serve Bayelsa State”.
