He said statuses that formerly conferred on not just Idah and Ankpa LGAs alone, but Kogi East and entire State as the hotbed for unabated crime such as cultism, kidnapping, burglary, road and bank robberies have changed to statuses of relative peace and calm, courtesy of Governor Bello's airtight security measures put in place to forestall them.

Insisting that only a secured environment can guarantee ease of businesses and investments, he upheld that Governor's laudable successes are traceable to the startegic and working relationship he shares with his Executive Chairmen presiding over the 21 LGAs of the State, highlighting that of Idah LGA, Hon. Abuh Odoma and Ankpa Chairman as a critical instance.

Bishop Adaji commended Chief Onoja whom he said, as a loyal and dependable ally to his Principal– the Deputy Governor plays contributory roles to achievements of the Governor Bello led administration in Kogi State.

The clergyman advised the Governor to sustain his people driven policies poised to bringing increased development to his people, praying that Kogi State continues to thrive on the growth map of unity and prosperity.
