The speaker, femigbaja has shown unprecedented leadership in championing the cause of Nigerian masses since he assumed leadership of the House...
Critics who predicted that Gbajabiamila’s House would be a rubber stamp and stooge of the presidency are gradually having a change of mind.
In his forthright style, Gbajabiamila urged the federal government to ensure that more poor Nigerians should get reliefs in these trying times. According to him, the preponderance of feedbacks from representatives who interfaced with their constituents suggested that the actual disbursement of palliatives was a far-cry compared to the reported beneficiaries.
The speaker appealed to their sense of patriotism in joining the fight against the raging pandemic. He urged them to be at the forefront of the war in their various constituencies and propagate the preventive measures as advised by relevant health authorities. “Many have postulated that our current approach to managing the pandemic will not yield the results we desire. It has been suggested that we should look at other alternatives in dealing with this virus; alternatives that are more suited to our economic structure and cultural makeup and are custom-made to our way of life.
He envisioned that, “The Strategic Response Team will be supported by a group of technical experts, private sector leaders and representatives. Their experience and expertise will ensure that the policy proposals presented to the House are rigorously grounded in a fact-based reality.”
