The Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Steel Development, Hon Abdullahi Ibrahim Ali Halims, on Wednesday, wished Governor Fayemi Kayode of Ekiti State who has tested positive to coronavirus quick recovery.
Halims prayed for speedy and full recovery of the Governor who he described as one of the finest statesman he has ever met in the course of his political sojourn and engagements with leaders across the country.
According to him, “Gov Fayemi is a thoroughly equipped statesman and a frontier of the Ajaokuta coy revival. While he served as the Minister of Solid Minerals and Steel Development, he never failed to identify with the House Committee on Steel.
“At all times and through very important collaborations, he demonstrated the most consistent sense of commitment towards the revival of Ajaokuta Steel Company and therefore, as he goes on isolation, I send my best wishes and prayers for his quickest recover,’’ he said.
The Ekiti State Governor, who is also Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF), announced his COVID-19 status via a tweet on his official Twitter handle on Wednesday and went on immediate isolation.
