According to Dekor, “Governor Wike’s distribution network of the palliatives is equal to none. The most vulnerable group targeted by the initiative are being readily captured.
“It is a thing of joy that he is remembering my people in this time of great need. It’s a humbling demonstration of one good turn deserving another as the good people of Khana and Gokana have always seen His Excellency as one of them and supported him accordingly.”
