“We should thank God that we have conquered Boko Haram and with this, people in the Northern part of the country are jubilating, but we must not rest on our oars.

“The problems we had in the past year made Nigerians to have diverse opinions about the present government. But I know that the present government has proven to Nigerians that it is capable of solving the present challenges confronting the nation”, he said.

The lawmaker stressed that the only area this government is presently lagging behind is economy, adding that everybody, including the politicians, were affected.
