Less than two years after emerging as the overall best in the Senate’s Top Ten Bills Productivity Index, Senator Uba Sani has been named “Overall Best Senator” by Order Paper in Abuja.
The lawmaker, who is now the All Progressives Congress (APC) governor-elect for Kaduna State was first declared among the “Top Performers on Bills Sponsorship for North West Geopolitical Zone” under “Most Valuable Parliamentarians Hall of Fame Awards” organised by OrderPaper Nigeria in July 2022.
OrderPaper Nigeria, an independent organisation, is focused on monitoring the legislative activities of the National Assembly for effective service delivery to citizens.
Reacting to the award, days before his exit as senator, Uba said he was delighted and “deeply humbled by the fact that my efforts in the 9th Senate have been closely monitored and assessed by not just my discerning constituents and colleagues but perhaps, Nigeria’s most credible legislative watchdog, Orderpaper Nigeria.”
He expressed excitement over his recognition as the “Most Valuable Parliamentarian (MVP) Of The 9th Senate” describing it as “purely as a result of my toil and sleepless nights in the Senate which culminated in several bills including those of them that have since been signed into law by the President, His Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari.”
