The senator representing Zamfara Central Sen­atorial District, on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Kabir Marafa, has endorsed the Gov­ernor of Abia State, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu of the People’s Demo­cratic Party (PDP) for a second term in office as governor.

The outspoken APC senator, whose party produced two gov­ernorship candidates in Abia State from parallel primaries, in the persons of Chief Ikechi Emenike and Mr. Sampson Ogah, commended Ikpeazu for his achievements in Abia and wished him well “in the remain­ing four and half years you have ahead of you as governor of Abia State”.

Marafa, who is also the chair­man of Senate Committee on Pe­troleum Downstream, spoke at the Government House, Umuahia when he led members of his com­mittee on a courtesy call to Gover­nor Ikpeazu, described Abia as an emerging new Nigeria.

He said: “I want to rejoice with you over the development you have been able to put in place, despite the tight budget you have and the other challenges before you.

"On our way to the depot, I saw the wonderful job, the fly­over you are constructing, I am told it is the first in Abia State. I will only say more grease to your very powerful elbows and may God see you through the re­maining four and half years you have ahead of you.

"I am sincerely very proud of you and I think, more than ever before, I can now boldly call you a friend".
The Marafa-led Senate Com­mittee on Petroleum Down­stream was in Abia State on oversight duties at the Osisioma pipeline explosion sites.
