“I want to thank all my Honourable colleagues who have kept faith with what my aspiration for speakership represents i.e equity, justice and fairness and for connecting with The BAGO plan.
“No Speaker in the history of the house of the Nigerian people, the Green Chamber has emerged from National Television parade.
“We are Honourable members, matured representatives of the people who deserve to be treated with respect, not wares on display.
“We will not elect our Speaker on television but in the chamber, God willing on the 11th of June 2019.
“I will continue to treat you with great respect and esteem, because you have earned it.”
