“On the budget, may I start by appreciating our governor and his team for their commitment, courage and character in implementing the 2022 budget in the face of daunting economic challenges. As a state we are particularly proud of the various ongoing projects at different levels of completion. Also, kudos to your tactical and unique approaches toward every sector in this administration.

“Let me specifically commend your commitment in creating the enabling environment for projects such as the Yenagoa/Oporoma/Ukubie road with assurance of driving to Angiama before the ends of this tenure. And, the West Senatorial Road as well as the Nembe/Brass road. Particularly, a mention must be made of the various constituency projects as these directly concern us as the representatives of the people. This brings about rural developments.”
