He particularly expressed excitement as both appointees are products of the National Assembly.

“In the various positions Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila and Senator George Akume have served in the National Assembly, they did so with distinction, working tirelessly to attract important developmental projects to their constituencies and advance the socio-economic development of the country in general.

“I am confident that they would deploy their immense wealth of experience, national and global connections in giving our President the needed support to deliver on his mandate of taking the nation to greater heights,” he said.
