Adamawa lawmaker speaks on succeeding Yakubu Dogara as Speaker
Speaking in Abuja when playing host to members of a sociocultural group, Igbos for One Nigeria , Hon. Buba said he understands the political and cultural differences of members, noting that he would turn that into legislative advantage.
“I recall that in 2015, Hon. Yakubu Dogara emerged Speaker against the party position, and subsequent development made it difficult for us to achieve results.” The lawmaker who won his second tenure promised more engaging programmes for his constituents in the next four years. “Today, no matter your tribe, religion or political party you belong in my constituency, I do not care. What is important to me is the impact we are making on people who suffered pains inflicted by insurgency, poverty and unemployment.”
