The governor stated that the state he met the governor’s office was not befitting, and that renovating it to befitting standard can even help to appeal to investors willing to do business with the state.

“I will not stop to spend money to make the governor’s office very befitting. It ought to be the signpost of the state. I will do the same in all our liaison offices.

Filthy environments and poor architectural outlook can discourage. The renovations will be done with transparency.
