The President who acknowledged the encouragement from the lawmakers, pledged to work harder, embrace intellectual inquisitiveness, and make courageous decisions for national development.
“We have a saying in Yoruba that it is only a courageous dog that will capture the animal in the bush,” he added.
The New Year homage, led by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, preceded a similar visit by members of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF).
