AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, the Kwara State Governor and Chairman of Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) on Tuesday, sent his congratulatory message to the new Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio and Speaker of House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abass over their victory.
AbdulRazaq, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, also congratulated Senator Jibrin Barau and Benjamin Kalu on their elections as Deputy Senate President and Deputy Speaker respectively.
The statement reads, “The popular choices of the new Senate President and the Rt. Honourable Speaker of the House of Representatives — as well as their deputies — underscore the confidence that their colleagues reposed in them and their abilities to work in harmony with the other arms of government for the development of our country.”
“We look forward to working with the new leadership on different issues of national interest, while wishing them God’s guidance and protection as they lead their colleagues in the 10th National Assembly to champion a vibrant legislative agenda that complements the Renewed Hope agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other subnational governments across Nigeria,” the statement added.
