So, it is ample time that God has given us to meditate on emerging critical issues that affect this community. I also want to congratulate this House. This is my third term. For the first two terms, I have been in the National Assembly. I, however, want to put in on record that we were 349 Members of Parliament (MPs). So, for you to just get an opportunity to say a Statement, it was so difficult like going to Heaven or Canaan. However, here, it is so"
