“This has come on the heel of Your Excellency’s approval and release of funds for the construction of Imu bridge in Idera which also suffered the same fate.”

“We do immensely appreciate Your Excellency and as a people we will continue to be eternally grateful to you and support you in whatever way possible,” the statement added.
