Elder Dr Fred Okem, Executive Chairman of Yala Local Government Area has described Hon Mike Ede Usibe, as one leader with the right mentality towards leadership in Yala LGA that should be celebrated at all times.
This assertion was contained in a congratulatory message made available to the media to celebrate Hon Mike Usibe’s birthday yesterday.
The LG boss who took over the reins of leadership at the council two months ago opined that the commitment to leadership from one of his predecessors attests greatly to his deep insight to grassroots politics which is enamoured by service to the people.
According to the chairman, “Hon Usibe is a deep thinker and a highly rooted and meticulous grassroots politician who has a strong connection with people of all creeds in Yala and the state having been commissioner for New Cities Development in the immediate past administration.”
“Reliably, Hon Usibe has relentlessly championed many worthy causes to advance development in Yala Local Government and participated in the joy of successes and stood very firm even in adversity.”
“It is with great joy that I celebrate this moment of joy in your life on the 29th day of December 2025 and I thank God Almighty for several feats you have attained so far in your life in the firm belief that more success awaits your fruitful palm hands in future.”
Elder Okem also prayed that God’s matchless grace continues to direct Hon Usibe’s path in all spheres of his endeavours.
