The former Speaker, ECOWAS Parliament who was represented by Chief Felix Ukpabi, a Special Adviser to the Governor, noted with pains, the devastating effects of coronavirus pandemic on the economy of nations.

He however urged the people not to despair but have faith in God for an end to the global pandemic.

He assured the people that he would never abandon them whether or not he is holding any political office, while tasking them on the equitable distribution of the items.
