The governor added that their responsibility is to make laws that will positively impact the lives of the people while they also carry out constituency projects.

“I am ready to work with any one of you irrespective of your political affiliation. I am happy with the caliber of the members produced this time around. You people are all my friends and brothers,” he said.
