“Today, we the good youths of Ebonyi State are gathered here to say 4 plus 4 is 8, and that’s the two tenures for His Excellency, Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru.
“We are in charge, and there’s no vacancy in the government house because Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru must complete his two terms in office.
“We the youths of Ebonyi State have adopted our governor for two terms, the governor is the builder of youths, King of the youths and the most youth friendly leader in Nigeria today,” he said.
