Benue At 49: A Message Of Solidarity To Glorious People
Dear People of Benue State,
As we mark the 49th Anniversary of our state today, 3rd of February, let us ponder on our adventure; one filled with struggles and impediments, triumphs, and a shared vision for a brighter future.
Created by the ingenious authority of the late Head of State, Gen. Murtala Muhammed, Benue State has passed through the custodianship of various leaders, each contributing to our prosperous tapestry.
Thus, under the stewardship of the incumbent Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, we have undertaken a reformative journey targeted at reawakening the fortunes of our beloved state. In less than half the first tenure, we have achieved considerable breakthroughs.
Agriculture and Agribusiness: Programmes to boost agricultural productivity and agribusiness are in motion, ensuring food security and enhancing the livelihoods of our farmers and generality of the populace.
Infrastructure and Environment: As already practically seen from all angles of the state, we are determined to rehabilitate our roads, open new ones, construct and fix public facilities, and make Benue more accessible and foster economic growth.
Healthcare and Social Development Initiatives: This administration is working meticulously to advance healthcare facilities and ensure that quality healthcare is available to all citizens.
There are also tremendous indicators in almost all the sectors including, Justice and Public Order; Humanitarian Services, Transport sector, Security of Lives and Property, Education, Staff Welfare, Economy, Commerce, and Wealth Creation
These achievements are just the beginning. The Governor Hyacinth Alia led administration anticipates a Benue State where every citizen experiences prosperity, security, and opportunity.
However, this target cannot be achieved alone. It calls for the collaborative determination of all stakeholders, community leaders, traditional rulers, business owners, and our energetic youth. Together, the administration can build a future that mirrors our joint desires.
As we celebrate these major landmarks in our State at 49, let us remain resolute in our obligations to Project Benue. The government extends a hand of fellowship to all stakeholders to join hands with it in this noble endeavor. Your participation and dedication are necessary for the success of our shared goals.
In this spirit of oneness, we call upon you to keep our Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, in your daily prayers. His leadership is committed to serving the common people, and your support is necessary for him to foster happiness and prosperity to every home in Benue State.
Together, let us press on, stimulated by our past and motivated by the possibilities of our future.
Happy 49th Anniversary, Benue State!
Yours in Service,
Sir Tersoo Kula, MNIPR,
Chief Press Secretary to the Governor of Benue State.
