The President also affirmed that with the kind of leadership qualities displayed by Dogara, the future of Nigeria in the hands of youths who are willing to work hard and pay the price, is secure.

“President Buhari believes Nigeria’s future can only be secured with great leadership by younger Nigerians, who are fired with the zeal to build one great nation that everyone can call a home.”

He then prayed that God grants the Speaker longer life, good health and wisdom to serve the country and humanity.
