“I feel it will not be out of place at all because you are a guru of entertainment. Once you say 2Face, people start dancing, even without the song.

“So, we are happy you’re here on behalf of the Benue State government and our very good people who want to give you more responsibility plus the ones you have been doing because you have the capacity to do some more and help us chart a way forward to improve other people’s lives and to gain more from your wisdom and advisement as well.
