The victims were returning to Aba from the school’s induction of medical students.

 

Two others were injured and are battling for their lives now in the hospital while one miraculously survived.

 

“If I don’t know you or have any connections with you is a different thing. You were one of my junior students back then in secondary school that I will send a message. Without exchange of words you will humbly respond to it,” one Onyeukwu Amarachi wrote.

 

“The last time we saw during your brother’s child dedication I was so glad and happy that you have grown into a full adult. Then I asked you what are you studying in school. You said mama Medicine and Surgery. I shouted wow see our baby doctor favour.

 

“You smiled. Back then I used to know you to be a very smart and intelligent young woman. When you started your perfume business you contacted me and I gave my reviews and also helped you to promote your brand through my social handles.

 

“Now that you are almost done with school and the enemy came and snatched you away from us. Waking up this early morning to see your pictures flying up and down on the internet broke my heart. Am sorry my girl. This is sad. Even though we don’t talk everyday. You were one of my favorite girls. And I love you from heart. Rip Dr Favor Okpanku. Am broken.”

The Avu-Obosima-Adapalm-Etekwuru Road, a flagship project under the “Government of Shared Prosperity” agenda, is a critical infrastructure designed to transform Imo State into a hub of economic and infrastructural excellence.

Your birthday is an opportunity to reflect on the incredible strides made under your guidance and to honor your tireless efforts in advancing the ideals of good governance, party unity, and socio-economic development.

Your achievements as Governor of Imo State speak volumes of your commitment to fulfilling the trust reposed in you by the people. Under the 3R agenda of Rehabilitation, Reconstruction, and Recovery, you have laid a foundation of transformational governance. Critical infrastructural projects, including over 90 roads completed or under construction, have reconnected urban hubs to rural communities, driving economic integration and accessibility. The dualization of key routes such as the Owerri-Orlu and Owerri-Okigwe roads, and the construction of a flyover at control post, is a testament to your vision of economic expansion and regional connectivity​.

Your administration’s dedication to healthcare is particularly praiseworthy. By rehabilitating 305 primary healthcare centers across the state, you have brought essential medical services closer to the people, ensuring that even the most remote areas feel the impact of governance. Your swift decision to recently provide necessary healthcare resources and services to rural dwellers in the state, underscored your prioritization of public health and safety​.

In education, your efforts to upgrade infrastructure, provide free education policies, and introduce digital learning solutions for schools have significantly enhanced the quality of learning in Imo State. Similarly, your investments in youth and women empowerment through skills acquisition programs and funding for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) reflect your commitment to building a prosperous future for the people of Imo​.

Your Excellency, beyond governance, your leadership within the APC has redefined the political landscape of the Southeast. Through strategic engagement and an inclusive approach, you have strengthened party structures at all levels, galvanizing grassroots support and fostering unity among stakeholders. The APC’s dominant status in the region is a direct result of your unrelenting efforts to position the party as the preferred choice for progressive governance. You have consistently bridged divides, bringing together diverse voices under a common vision of development and inclusivity​.

Furthermore, your ability to foster harmony among the three arms of government has ensured stability and effective policy implementation, making Imo State a model of good governance in Nigeria. The collaborative environment you have nurtured has translated into tangible development across sectors, earning you well-deserved commendations from citizens and institutions alike​.

As we celebrate this milestone in your life, we are reminded of the unwavering dedication you bring to every endeavor and the profound legacy you continue to build. Your leadership is a beacon of hope, not only for Imo State but also for the entire Southeast and Nigeria. May this birthday mark the beginning of even greater achievements, and may you continue to lead with wisdom, courage, and compassion.
