General of Nigerian Prisons Service, Mr. Peter Ezenwa Ekpendu as he
retires after twenty-fives of meritorious service to the father land.
Governor Okrocha made this remark yesterday at the Headquarters of
Nigerian Prisons Service, Abuja through his Deputy, Prince Eze
Madumere who represented him during the Pulling-Out parade in honour
of the former Comptroller General.
Speaking to the newsmen, Prince Madumere stated that it is a policy
of Imo State Government to identify and celebrate those who excel in
their chosen professions, which he said Ekpendu represents, to spur
the younger generation to appreciate and work hard towards achieving
excellence and forthrightness in service.
Eulogizing Ekependu for his accomplishments within the period he
served with the Nigerian Prisons Service, he described him as an
illustrious son of Imo State and a goal getter whose appointment came
at a time the Prisons Service had challenges but was able to weather
the storm and returned the Service to its glory path.
He encouraged Dr. Ekpendu whose 60th birthday coincides with his
retirement ceremony to make himself available whenever he is called
upon to contribute to the national development from his wealth of
experience, saying he is still young and has so much to offer.
