The governor noted: “In the next four years, we will grow our Social Sector by constantly improving our Education, Healthcare System, provision of social security and safety nets, caring for the vulnerable and the disadvantaged in our state and rapidly develop our critical energy, housing, digital and road Infrastructure, which provides a framework to drive inclusive growth.
“We will build the Economy and drive Industrialization, Trade and Investment, to solidify our state’s status as the choice investment destination in the country and exploit Agriculture and Natural Resources, by tapping our God-given resources to provide food security, create wealth and improve the livelihoods of our people”
