Your services, Prof, is needed by everyone, I’m sure every Nigerian wants to know what the weather is like tomorrow to enable them plan their activities and by the time the Act is a reality, I am sure you can cover more. Your appointment bis justified, we hope you continue in this direction,” Adeyemi said.
