Let me appreciate Oba Ogunwusi, for his kind words on the modest achievements of our Government of Assured Prosperity in human and infrastructural development.
I cherish the gift presented to me by the Ooni, which represents the deep culture of the Yoruba people.
As a government, we have continued to promote and strengthen the rich culture of the Ijaw people and I am sure you will have a taste of it during your stay.
