He said; “I am thrilled to have been appointed as Chairman of the association, and i accept it in good faith. I will fulfill my duties with utmost dedication and efficiency while maintaining the standards set by the Association.”

The chairman further pledged that the association will be repositioned to fast-track local government development and change whatever bad narrative the previous leaders have made.
