Speaking on the significance of local government administration the governor said, "Local Governments are not only the closest to the people, but possesses the capacity to be more impactful in fulfilling the wishes and aspirations of the people at the grassroots.

"My administration will continue to give priority to staff salaries and welfare as well as projects execution across the State that are beneficial to the people and government."
