Also, in a separate remark, Rtd ASP Collins Omale who spoke on behalf of Adeh community thanked the governor for the visit which he termed as a unique one, noting that it is the first time in the history of the village that a Governor visit them.

“Our belief is that your coming here today is not only to sympathize and condole us on the unfortunate saga of the death of our sons but symbolic of numerous blessings that will come to this community”, Omale noted.

The community pledged their unalloyed loyalty and support for the administration of Capt. Wada, vowing that they will come out in their thousands to vote PDP, come November 21st, 2015.
