He has done so well in Infrastructural development and human capital development. There is no rival,you can't compare him with any other governor in the country.
"I got to say that the cornucopia of his monumental Infrastructural development speaks volumes of itself.
"I want to say that God will give him the strength,the wisdom to continue the way he has done in Ebonyi State. And I believe that when one has done very well, God will elleviate that person to a higher position.
