We know about the achievements in agriculture like the Anambra rice amongst other things and are once more proud of our State. He has done very well, and I know that when a person passes exams he gets promoted. We are we in agreement that our governor has done well and should be promoted.“

Dr. Ifekwem appreciated the governor’s wife, Chief (Mrs.) Ebelechukwu Obiano for honouring the ASWAL invitation as Special Guest of Honour at the event.

She described governor Obiano and wife as humane leaders, whose selfless services to humanity are already well known.
