"We all know that from inception, when this deadly disease began to afflict the world, even before Nigeria recorded her first case, our Governor brought his rare intuitive leadership qualities and instincts to bear, when he immediately ordered for Mass production of face masks that were given out to the people, alongside other paliatives that came in form of other health intervention facilities, as well as basic food provisions, he said.
Mr. Ekpenyong called on all to support the good leadership of Sen. Prof. Ben Ayade.
