“Arising from your numerous contributions to your fatherland, AMAC has deemed it fit to recognise your contribution and issue a ‘symbol of award of the street name’ in your honour in appreciation of your commitment to developing the country.
“We see this as an opportunity to encourage you to do more for the people of your state.
“We wish you more grace as you discharge your responsibility and give enviable service to your fatherland,” the chairman said.
