We pledge 100% loyalty to the governor, to support him in what he is doing, what he is here to do, and what he will continue to do.”
He stressed that the delegation’s purpose was to throw their weight solidly behind the governor, adding:
“As far as Gboko Local Government is concerned, the governor is our own, he is our blood, and we are behind him 100%.”
Also speaking, the Ter Gboko, HRH Chief Gabriel Shosum, explained that the visit was not political but an expression of gratitude to the governor for his developmental strides, particularly in Gboko.
“We have come here to appreciate what our own governor has done for the past two years and what he is still doing.
