“I must sincerely commend the Governor for his openness, wisdom, and responsiveness to our call. His Excellency’s approval of this recommendation is not only an act of good governance but a reflection of a leader who listens, evaluates, and acts in the best interest of the people, especially the youth constituency,” the statement read in part.
