“It is my honour to welcome you to this event, one of the most important functions I have performed in my administration.
“I am very much happy working with all of you because you have taken the responsibility of maintaining peace in your Communities even before the formal recognition.
“Please do not take your subjects for granted, be more focused and dedicated, at the end of the day, you will not be disappointed, do not take bribe from your subjects because you will not have the boldness to say the truth,“ he said.
The Traditional Rulers appreciated the Governor for the honour bestowed on them and pledged to hold on to their charge in the administration of their kingdoms.
