Lokoja – Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State has sent his warmest congratulations to Senator Godswill Akpabio on his election as the President of the 10th Senate.

The governor in a statement in Lokoja on Tuesday commended the flawless and peaceful conduct of the election, which stands as a testament to the commendable workings of internal democracy within the National Assembly.

Bello firmly said Akpabio’s extensive experience as a former Governor of Akwa Ibom State and Minister of the Niger Delta will enable him to effectively lead the 10th Senate.

He said that Akpabio was also capable of fostering a harmonious relationship with the other arms of government for the greater good of the nation.

In the statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mohammed Onogu, Bello also extended his heartfelt congratulations to Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas on his election as the Speaker of the 10th House of Representatives.

The governor acknowledged and appreciated Rt. Hon. Abbas’ distinguished presence in the parliament, which he said has equipped him with the necessary knowledge and understanding to fulfill his responsibilities harmoniously, always keeping the national interest at the forefront.

The Governor was of the opinion that Akpabio and Abbas, in their respective leadership positions, will work closely with their colleagues and other arms of government to ensure effective governance, drive meaningful legislative reforms, and contribute to the progress and development of the nation.

Bello congratulated Senator Barau Jibrin and Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu as on their well-deserved election as Deputy President of the Senate and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, respectively.

“The governor expresses his optimism that their tenures will be characterized by remarkable achievements, uncommon progress, and positive impact on the lives of Nigerians,” the statement said.

In the election, Akpabio secured 63 votes to defeat his closest rival, Senator Abdulaziz Yari, who garnered 46 votes.

Similarly, Abbas scored overwhelming 353 votes, to defeat Idris Wase and Aminu Jaji, who got 3 votes each.

“Governor Bello wishes all elected officials success in their new positions and assures them of his unwavering support and cooperation in their efforts to enhance the welfare and prosperity of the country and its citizens,” Onogwu said.
