The governor stated that worsening security situation in the country was threatening education and food security and commended the lawmaker for investing in the security of his people.
He lauded him for always coming home to consult with his people for first-hand knowledge of their needs and for always reaching out to the state government on strategic issues.
Okowa expressed delight with the facilities being provided by Elumelu at the DSS command.
“What we have here is almost like what you have at the headquarters in Abuja; there is serenity and there is comfort just like what we have abroad,” he said.
He remarked that Elumelu had continued to be a strong voice of the opposition in the Green Chamber and had led the opposition very efficiently.
Earlier in his remarks, Elumelu had said that the inauguration of the projects was the commencement of a three-day inauguration of various development projects in critical sectors of communities in the constituency.
Director-General of DSS, Mr Magaji Bichi, commended Elumelu for his astute representation of his constituency and great investment in the Service.
Represented by a Director at the Headquarters of the Service, Mr Mohammed Ngoshe, the Director-General said that the service was grateful to the lawmakers for his kind gesture and urged all politicians to emulate him in enhancing the welfare of their people.
