A group within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in United States of America, the Worldhero LLC, has thrown its weight behind the lawmaker representing Ondo West/East Federal Constituency, Abiola Makinde, as the Deputy Speaker of the 10th National Assembly.

The group, in a statement issued by its Convener and Founder, Akintomide Akinbinu, said Makinde has been able to shown quality leadership by bringing the dividends of democracy to the doorsteps of the people of his constituency.

Akinbinu said Makinde has demonstrated loyalty and commitment to the party, saying the lawmaker representing the Ondo West/East constituency has great qualities to turn around the House of Representatives with the support of other lawmakers.

According to him, Makinde as a ranking lawmaker is blessed with requisite experience to sheer the affairs of the legislature and is capable of putting in place a workable roadmap that will turn around the nation to renew the hope of Nigerians.

He called on the party leadership and all members of the 10th House of Representatives to rally support for Makinde to emerge as the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly.

Akinbinu said “There is no doubt that Makinde is equipped with the necessary skill-set, educational background, and a very intimidating track record. For the sake of our dear country, it behoves on us to promote merit over any other considerations.

“Going by his exploit in Ondo East and West Federal Constituency even as a first timer, which has endeared him to his constituents, it is crystal clear that Makinde has a heart for development of the people as he understands the intricacies of governance and representation with regards to lawmaking and policy formulation.”

“I therefore call on the leadership of the party to endeavour that the Ranking Honourable Member be given the mandate of the Deputy Speaker position for the sake of merit, fairness, equity, and political balancing.

“The 10th House of Representatives must put in place quality leadership and must be made up of men of impeccable characters and antecedents with experience to steer the affairs of the National Assembly.

“We must support candidate with experience and capacity to stabilise the house and Makinde is blessed with the experience as far as the legislature is concerned. He will surely use his experience to stabilise the house.

“We therefore urge the leadership of the APC and all members-elect of the 10th House of Representatives to rally round Abiola Makinde and support his emergence as the Deputy Speaker”
