"The
legislature by nature is inherently democratic in the sense that all
members are equal and are elected representatives of the Nigerian
people. As President-elect, I recognize this fact and believe that
legislators carry this heavy burden of representation with all the
seriousness it deserves. For a president to be successful in addressing
community development and general welfare of the various people of the
country, he or she would benefit from working closely and in harmony
with the legislative arm of government. “I therefore commit myself to
working with the legislature as development partners motivated by the
desire to deliver good governance.” he said
