The secretary, Rivers State Council of NURTW, Sir, Comrade Chuks Boms, on behalf of the state council commended the recipient for his enviable legacy and thanked the branch for the progress it had recorded so far and attributed such to the unity and understanding between members and assured them of the continued support of the state council.
