Rep urges unity among lawmakers

By Simon Adewale

Lagos—The member of  the House of Representative, representing Amuwo Odofin Federal Constituency in Lagos State, Mr. Oghene Egoh, has stressed the need for unity among the National Assembly members so that they can make laws that will improve the lives of Nigerians.

In a chat with newsmen,  Egoh appealled to the lawmakers to unite and work together as a team; noting that the  House can only succeed if they seek concord rather than discord.

He added that it is unfortunate that some people were not satisfied with the committee they were assigned to presently, but urges them to be contented as they are not working for their interest but for the interest of the nation and the people they represent.

The lawmaker said though he is neither a chairman nor a deputy chairman of any committee, he is happy to serve for the interest of the nation.

He stressed that he do not possess the requisite executive power to directly award contract but will not relent in his effort to push for the development of his constituency and address the challenges facing the people.
