Ayade, likened Semenitari to a symbol of how the weak can be helped by the strong.
Ayade praised her for her intervention on the critical Calabar-Itu Road, saying she saved Cross River State from economic collapse as the mainstay of the economy is the quarry business.
The quarry business had suffered a decline and begun to lose to Ebonyi State because truckers and movers found it impossible to pass through the road.
