Okafor said Soludo has made positive history by being the first Governor in Nigeria to embark on massive employment of the citizenry in less than one year in office.
He maintained that under Soludo’s watch, the State House of Assembly has resolved to continue to work harmoniously with Governor Soludo, having seen the manifestation of his development efforts in all sectors, especially in road infrastructure, health care system, environmental sanitation, etc security of lives and property among others.
The Speaker noted that Soludo has changed the wrong policy of offering employment to people towards the end of the Governor’s tenure by employing over five thousand teachers and three hundred health workers in his first year in office.
Okafor also expressed satisfaction with the manner the governor has continued to apply the little state resources to useful ventures and services, which he said, has resulted in enthroning good governance in the state.
He called on politicians in the state, irrespective of their party affiliations to give maximum support to Governor Soludo in his efforts to move the state to greater heights.
He requested fervent prayers from religious bodies in the state and total support of the citizenry to enable Governor Soludo to continue to perform optimally even in the remaining years of his tenure.
