"We are aware of the high standards of discipline that your administration demands from its public officials. We acknowledge the circumstances that led to this administrative action and humbly plead that you view this situation through the lens of a father, considering Reuben Izeze's capacity to mobilize the grassroots and his years of faithful service to the state".
Reuben Izeze is known for his contributions to infrastructure development and youth advocacy while Sunday Kotor actively advocated for infrastructure and community progress within the Ughievwen Kingdom and Okwagbe Waterside in Ughelli South Local Government Area, fostered communal harmony, resolved local disputes and mentored younger generations in grassroots politics and public service. He tragically passed away in March 2026.
