Quotes “I’m not in Abuja to repre­sent myself but the good peo­ple of Ngor Okpala and Aboh Mbaise. And one of the things that disturbs me is the lack of federal presence in my area which I have to work hard to change,” “One area we have to focus on as lawmakers is how to se­cure the future of our youths. We have to make laws that will benefit the youths and make them believe in the Nigerian project,” "The 10th Nation­al Assembly is an assemblage of like minds that are committed to good, visionary and purposeful leadership in Nigeria through robust legislative activities." "l believe that one of the key responsibilities of governments wherever constituted is to ensure lasting peace, stability and the security of lives and properties of its citizens. Unfortunately, it has become a recurring decimal of insecurity all over the country." "For the Southeast geopolitical zone, what is happening now is unprecedented and unexpected by the people of the zone. Assuming but not conceding that there is something the government should do, l feel they should do it expediently. “Well it seems to me that, one of the main functions of the government is to make sure that there is peace, order, and provision of security; protection of lives and property of the citizens." “It has become a recurrent decimal all over the country, unprecedented and we have not expected it." “I think that there is this strong agitation by our people that we've not been treated fairly, in terms of the marginalization of the South Easterners." “So, to me, I always feel that a hungry man is an angry man, so if the youths are gainfully employed, if there's fairness and equity in everything we do, nobody will agitate and insecurity will be gone, that's what I believe.” External links Category:Politicians from Nigeria Category:1960 births Category:Living people
