After a period of isolation, treatment and recovery from Coronavirus infection, the Governor of Abia State, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu, is back home hale and hearty.
In a clear demonstration of his appreciation to God, the Governor, his wife, his two daughters and a few of his aides went straight to the Seventh Day Adventist Church, Umuobiakwa for a brief Thanksgiving Service presided over by the President of the East Nigeria Union Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Church Nigeria, Pastor Dr. Bassey Udoh.
The governor expressed his deep and profound appreciation to the Almighty God whose grace and loving kindness kept him throughout the difficult period as he battled with Covid-19.
According to him, the mercy of God is the only reason he is alive today. He thanked the team of doctors and other medical personnel who attended to him for their dedication and professionalism.
While expressing his gratitude to his Deputy Governor, Rt. Hon Ude Oko Chukwu for courageously holding the forte during his period of absence, he commended him for his statesmanship in the running of the affairs of the State.
Governor Ikpeazu also extended his appreciation to the Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon Chinedum Orji and all members of the State Assembly for their display of patriotism during the period including Secretary to the Government of Abia State, Barrister Chris Ezem, Chief of Staff to the Governor, Dr ACB Agbazuere and all members of the State Executive Council, as well as Chairmen of the Transition Committees of the 17 Local Government Areas of the State.
The Governor further extended his appreciation and thankfulness to all religious leaders from different faiths and denominations who prayed fervently for his recovery and their unending messages of goodwill just as he did not leave out the traditional rulers, elder statesmen, political leaders, women and youth groups from across the State and indeed all Abians across the globe who prayed for his recovery.
He assured people of the State that he is hale and hearty and fully prepared to resume duties and continue to discharge his divine mandate of leading the good people of Abia State.
