“I am the only one who has been through the tutelage. I am the only one among the aspirants who has been consistent in one party. They are not stable. Some of them are rolling stones,” he stated.

He said he started his political career as a member of the house of representatives; “I am very proud of myself as a democrat because the essence of democracy is the assemblage of wise and prudent people.”

He said he was in Lokoja to request the support of the PDP stakeholders.

According to him, “I am not here to be defensive; I am here with humility that I am one of the best products that you can sell as a senatorial aspirant.”

“We can do it. You can make me succeed with your support. I want us to forge a future for this senatorial district, we are the most populous, and we have the best brain and resources.

The aspirant, who used the occasion to highlight his scorecard, said no community under his constituency he had not executed a project, adding that he had also executed some projects in Lokoja LGA despite the fact that he is not representing the area.

Responding, the local government Chairman of the PDP, Hon. Saba Danladi Isa, commended the aspirant for effective representation in the house of representatives, describing him as “one of the finest.”
