Thus, these values remain assets that we must continue to uphold as a people; irrespective of political, religious, or regional differences in our pursuit of greater progress and development.
“The House of Representatives welcomes various efforts by Honourable Members in this season, to extend goodwill to millions of their constituents in these difficult times and urges Nigerians across all walks of life to spread love and joy this season.
As the “People’s House,” we remain steadfast in our commitment to being service-focused, responsive, result-oriented, and effective in our representative functions in line with our Eight-point Legislative Agenda”.
