In a statement by Ejidke made available to Daily Sports on Wednesday, he appreciated the entire Igbo community in Kwara for reposing the confidence in him and assured them of contributing his quota for the development of his kinsmen.
Ejidike appealed for unalloyed cooperation as he “cannot do it all alone but everyone’s contributions would make the desired difference.”
“Igbos should remain as one big family. We should contribute to the communities where we live. There should be no reason for involving in any act that may smear our good images. We are known to be industrious as such let it be that,” he said.
