“As you have put smiles on our faces, God will not fail you; you have provided food for us and at the same time gave us money. We are happy… God will not fail you”, they said.
“We know our Governor, he cares for women, empowers them, appointed them in sensitive quarters; we will vote for all APC candidates again. Thank you for your care”, the Beneficiaries further added.
They beneficiaries prayed to God to protect her Principal, the Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, who has appointed her in the capacity of Project Coordinator NEWMAP and now ACReSAL.
They said Barrister Ladi Jatto made sure Agassa Gully Erosion Site, and Ozuri, in Adavi LGA were addressed. They equally requested that she should plead to His Excellency to address the devastating Gully Erosion of Etahi.
On her side, Barrister Ladi Jatto said her position is such that she cannot do without touching lives; and that she will continue to extend support to the people.
She called on them to collect their PVCs and make sure they come out in their numbers to vote for the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates so that all the good works the APC Government has done, and is doing, will continue.
Barr. Ladi thanked His Excellency, the Governor of Kogi State for providing the platform for her to touch lives positively.
“I use this opportunity to thank our amiable Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello who has made sure women are recognised in his Government. They are not only recognised, but allowed to head sensitive positions; that is why I am calling on young and old men and women to support the Government of His Excellency for continuous progress in our society.
In the past, Ebira land was characterised as a volatile area when it comes to elections, but we thank God that since the emergence of our Governor, such has long become a thing of the past, which we want to maintain as we look forward to electing our leaders across the State and nationwide.
Please, youths, do not allow yourselves to be used as agents of violence. Say No to violence! Say No to vote buying, and Say No to backwardness. Thank you and God bless you”, she said.
