To the good people of Owan Federal Constituency, I take much pleasure in sending out to you all, my heartiest good wishes and warm season’s greetings as the year 2025 dawns. I commend your industry, perseverance, loyalty, and goodwill even in the face of general hardship in the nation. The difficulties are not peculiar to our country but global in dimension.I know as much as you do that the arrival of a New Year is a time of reflection, a period of looking back on accomplishments and of things left unfinished. It is also a time for resolutions, and looking forward to the future.Looking at 2025 and beyond, I dare say I am determined to continue to ensure the sustenance of the quality representation that has hallmarked my legislative epoch, providing the needed support and interventions where necessary, and facilitation of economic growth for our blessed land and for posterity.Ours is a Federal Constituency with great potentials and it is a privilege for me to be a part of the leadership of Owan in this era, even as I pray for God’s guidance to lead in the direction of peace and placing Owan where it ought to be. I will never betray your trust, goodwill, and encouragement.It is my firm belief that as a people, we have a lot to be thankful for in 2024, and much more to look forward to in 2025. It is therefore my promise in the New Year to continue to put in my best for the overall betterment of the lives of our people.I urge everyone of us to be positive and optimistic in our collective resolve to make 2025 a greater year, and it is my hope that peace, unity and love will form the fulcrum of our New Year resolution in order to move our Federal Constituency forward.Let me once again personally thank all constituents for the honour and privilege to represent you in the Green Chambers of the National Assembly. For the umpteenth time, I say I am sincerely thankful.Let us use the new year to eschew bitterness and all the negative plotting, opportunism, and divisive dispositions that only weaken and make us vulnerable. On behalf of my family and myself, I wish you all a very happy and prosperous 2025, and may the New Year be filled with accomplishments of our various goals, good health, happiness, and prosperity.
