A former
military Head of State, Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, on Saturday in Awka
commended Gov. Willie Obiano of Anambra for his efforts in ensuring improved
security in the state.
Abubakar made the commendation when he paid a courtesy
visit to the governor, noting that Anambra stood out as one of the best states
in the country in the area of security of lives and property of residents.
He
called on the people to support Obiano to enable him to complete the impressive
plans that he had for the speedy development of the state in other sectors.
“From the time Obiano took over the mantle of leadership in the state the
people of this state have witnessed a great transformation.
“ Anambra stands
out as one of the best states in Nigeria in the area of security. “I also
observe that from the moment we crossed the boundary into this state, there are
visible signs of development.
“Your Excellency, I want to congratulate you and
the people that made this possible. “I urge the people living in this state to
continue to support you so that they will continue to enjoy the great
atmosphere of security in this state, “ he said.
Abubakar said that his visit
to the state was to inaugurate a project built by one of his friends, Dr Ben Aghaji,
in Nnewi before he decided to pay the governor a courtesy call. He further
commended the governor’s efforts at improving the state’s economy beyond what
he inherited from his predecessor. Responding, Obiano said he was elated at the
unannounced visit of the former head of state.
He described the visitor as a
great Nigerian leader who midwifed the present democracy in the country and
wished him well. ( VANGUARDNGR)
