Speaking during the handing and talking over ceremony at the Commission’s Conference Room, the new NASC boss told officials of the National Assembly Service that his leadership would emphasise the welfare of the workers of the Service, harmonious working relationships and productivity.

Dr Enyiekere thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio and the Leadership of the National Assembly for allowing them to serve, pledging that he would steer the Service towards achieving the legislative mandate of government.

In a goodwill message, the Clerk to the National Assembly, Barrister Kamoru Ogunlana, assured the new Commission of the full cooperation of the National Assembly Management towards achieving success.

He, however, pleaded with the Commission to involve the National Assembly Management in key decision-making.

The Commission’s secretary, Mr Lucky U. Ikharo, presented the handover documents to the new NASC boss and pledged NASC Management’s total commitment to the adequate performance of the Commission’s assignment.
