“He solidly stood by me before, during and after the rerun election in year 2023, which has led to my being here in the National Assembly today as a two term lawmaker. His staunch support provided for me the momentum that led to my gallant triumph over my political opposition.

“Two years on, I am here through the grace of God and his support. It was a tough war he fought together with me. And today, I return an appreciation to him.

“I look up to him in all I do in terms of delivering dividends of democracy to the people of our constituency. That is the more reason why I always try to imitate him by doing the right thing at all time.”
