pursuit of a common goal. The Governor added that
though Efe is by ethnic extraction from Delta State,
Plateau is proud to lay claim to his entire life’s
orientation having been groomed for excellence in
life with the values that distinguish the Plateau
person.
The Executive Governor in his commendation
assured the people of Plateau and Delta States, that
the success of Efe will provide the additional
platform for the consolidation of the relationship
between the people of the two States, which had
existed right from the early Tin Mining days of the
twentieth century.
