Andrea Mayar Acho the Governor of Wau State for his wise and patriotic decision by appointing a woman, Cecilia Livio Ngelego Bahra as a deputy Governor,” reads part of the statement. “CEPO is grateful to the appointment of Madam Bahra in the position of Deputy Governor as CEPO has previously appealed for this seat to be filled by a woman.
