Governor Idris Wada of Kogi State has declared that he would name a public building after his opponent in the last governorship election, the late Prince Abubakar Audu.
Wada said that the measure was to immortalize Audu who was the first executive governor of Kogi State for his massive contributions to the creation and subsequent development of the state.
Gov Wada made the declaration at the Government House, Lokoja on Friday, while giving account of his stewardship ahead of the handover to governor-elect Bello on January 27.
While giving his administration a pass mark, Wada listed some of his achievements as free medical care for the people and improvement of water and electricity supply in the state.
He said that huge wage load was a major challenge to his administration as 85 per cent of the monthly federal allocation was spent on salaries and pensions, leaving very little for development projects.
