He emphasized that a stable institution is the source of stability for the nation, making a call for more national leaders who see everyone as one people and the country as one entity.

The Governor who canvassed support for the President to succeed, described the Ooni as a symbol with a national and global outlook, making a call for the likes of Ooni to emerge as bridge builder, for national healing.

The Ooni, while presenting a symbolic gift of artwork to Governor Soludo asked him to keep hunting for innovations.
