The Special adviser to the President on Media & Publicity,Femi Adesina who made this known through a press statement released to Naija News earlier today said that the President also commends Cardinal Francis Arinze, Prefect Emeritus of the Congregation for Divine Worship and Discipline of the Sacraments at the Vatican, who will lead a Pontifical Mass preceding the special award by the Catholic Church to Governor Obiano on December 8, 2018.

The President affirms that the recognition by the Catholic Church will send the right signal to other states and all Nigerians that free, fair and peaceful elections are realisable, especially when political leaders declare their stand against non- violence and properly sensitize the electorate.

President Buhari equally congratulates Chief Obi Adimora and Mr Chidi Amamgbo who will also receive awards at the event.

the President  also felicitates with the government and people of Anambra State for the deserved award to the governor, which takes into full cognisance the maturity and decency of the governor in handling the last elections in the state.
