According to him, ” I sincerely want to appeal to all Mbaitoli people who are yet to enroll on the ongoing Imo State Social Security Benefit Number (IMSSBN) to do so because it is not politically motivated , saying that this unique e-Social Identification number will be required in many Government and non government activities in Imo State. This important futuristic identification number has nothing to do with November 11th Governorship election or any political undertone , It is just for the easy e
identification of Imolites for future benefits.”

“If you are a resident of Mbaitoli or indigene and do not have your IMSSBN, then you are wrong. The enrollment exercise will take off across approximately 305 Polling Units in Mbaitoli , I humbly appeal to Mbaitoli people not to take this enrollment exercise for granted because alot will be attached to this number in future in Imo State.”
