A House of Representatives member-elect on the platform of the Labour Party, Godwin Ogar, said he never knew that President Bola Tinubu was so intelligent, and he felt so proud listening to a man who is prepared to serve Nigerians.
Ogar, who was elected from Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency of Abia State, stated this during an interview with newsmen after the National Assembly members-elect met with Tinubu at the State House to resolve the leadership crisis of the lawmakers.
Ogar said, “Today is my best day; today I’m so happy that I’m an elected member, seeing my President talking. In fact, I never knew that this man was so intelligent.
“He is so prepared to serve this country. During my meeting with him, I saw the love, the character, the charisma, and the belief that Nigeria can be a better nation.
“So I’m so glad that the meeting we have today is going to take us a little bit to a more stabilised House.”
The LP lawmaker-elect stressed that he is not even concerned that he is of a different party but about the most important decision, which is the growth of the country.
“As of now, the party is not the issue; we’re talking about building the nation,” he added.
Recall that Ogah was officially declared the winner of the poll by the Independent Electoral Commission on February 25, after he amassed 11,822.
His close opponent, Nkiru Onyejeocha of the All Progressives Congress, garnered 8,752 of the total votes cast.
The emergence of Ogah retired Onyejeocha, who had been occupying the position for the past 16 years.
