"We commend our amiable, ebullient, inimitable, irrepressible and visionary Governor which is the engineer behind the success of the project we are commissioning today.
"We are commissioning these modern medical equipment for the use of the health facilities in our Local Government simply because it is the priority.
"It is our believe that health is wealth and for this reason, our administration has invested hugely in health sector.
"When we took over the mantle of administration of this Local Government, we look at the status of our health facilities and discovered that, the equipment they were using were already outdated due to the moving train of technology.
"This made our administration in year 2013 to travel down to the United States of America to seek for modern medical equipment for our health centres for the betterment of our people in this Local Government Area through the approval of Mr. Governor.
"We strongly believe that health is wealth and for this purpose we have been working tirelessly to place priority to sound health and robust standard of living of our people.

He therefore promised to continuously live up to the expectations of the masses.
