HOUSE LEADERSHIP RACE: ‘RT HON. AHMAN PATEGI IS THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE RIGHT JOB’ – CENTER FOR PARLIAMENTARY REFORM

After thorough deliberation and extensive consultations cutting across the length and breadth of the nation, the Center for Parliamentary Reform (CPR) has unanimously endorsed Rt Hon Ahman Pategi, representing Edu/Moro/Pategi  Federal Constituency of Kwara State as their choice for Majority Leader of the Federal House of Representatives. ‘We believe that at this critical juncture in our nation’s political evolution and given the pivotal importance of the National Assembly, nay the House of Representatives in engendering the much touted political and constitutional reform process as well as fashioning out laws and statutes that will guarantee national stability and development, we unhesitantly and unequivocally endorse Rt Hon Ahman Pategi for the pivotal position of Majority Leader of the House of Representatives. Indeed Rt Ahman Pategi has the in depth experience, legislative acumen, intellectual sagacity, political dexterity and technocratic suavity urgently required to pilot the affairs of the House to safer and sounder shores. The CPR has not an iota of doubt that Rt. Hon. Ahman Pategi will if given the opportunity to serve, carry along all and sundry in his daily conduct of House business and we therefore urge his colleagues, both new and returning members to give him the crucial support necessary to clinch the strategic legislative position in order to take parliamentary process and procedure to the next level in our nascent democratic continuum. Time is not on our side and we cannot afford the luxury of ineptitude, incompetence or inexperience this time around. A word is enough for the wise-the CPR communiqué signed by its national chairman, Dr Festus Okoye concluded.
