The Governor who was elated at the massive turnout of people and the quality of the event described the people of Isiko as reliable and worthy allies noting that Isiko community alone has the highest number of journalists in the state.

“Isiko is a great community. Unarguably they have produced the highest number of journalists in Ngwa land, if not in the entire Abia State. Rt. Hon. Eziuche Ubani and his brother, Enyinnaya Appolos, have shown capacity as journalists in the state and Nigeria”, he said.
