MESSAGE OF CONGRATULATIONS TO HON.CHRISTOPHER UHUNEKPENMA UDOBOR IYASE ON YOUR APPOINTMENT AS THE SA ON YOUTH MOBILISATION IN EDO STATE.
It is no news to many of your friends who have been on the same political train on your well-deserved appointment by His Excellency Senator Monday Okpebholo. Those of us who know your track records in administration and respect for constituted authorities will be quick to say that your appointment is a testament to your commitment and sterling qualities.
The task before you is onerous and as usual, I am doubly sure that you will and can surmount all the encumbrances that may come your way as you function in your new office.
As you march on in good faith with the Executive Governor, constantly put on the breastplate of ethics, dignity, sincerity, and honour so that the people that you are charged to serve will have reasons to sing your praise.
The political dynamics of Edo State are peculiar and, at the same time, complex. It therefore behoves you to arm yourself with the moral, social, and political compass so as to succeed.
The Executive Governor's Shine Agenda and the President's Renewed Hope Agenda are interwoven, and the success of it, to a large extent, requires an undiluted youth involvement. With this in mind, we are looking forward to a robust youth engagement and strategic mobilisation that will ultimately culminate in the actualisation of the plans as encapsulated in the agendas for the best interest of Nigerians.
I sincerely thank the “working” Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo for his commitment towards governance, promotion of justice and equity - and in the same vein, for seeing you worthy to serve in his administration.
Conclusively, I will be generous to join your teeming supporters to remind you that your call to duty is to serve, and I wish you luck.
Okpioba Iredia Osakue
Chairman, APC, Italy Chapter
Liaison Officer, Turin, Italy. (EDSDA)
