“This is the Day the Lord has made…a day that reaffirms the age long truth that no-one holds the stage forever. I thank the Almighty for keeping us all alive to witness this day.

“To Him be the glory.

“It was long in coming, but it’s finally here…

“A more dynamic and progressive Anambra is achievable.

“Yes indeed….WE ARE THE BARRACKS!”.
