The new Senator representing the Federal Capital Territory

He thanked everyone who contributed to the success of the party during the elections, including the support groups, saying their success couldn’t have come if they did it alone.

“Each person contributed to the success, everyone worked so hard, everyone participated even those who are not exco members, including the support groups. Kingibe and I will ensure that promises made during the campaigns are not fake, the FCT must wear a new look. This is the best combination in representation and very soon, we will begin to see a new FCT,” he said.
