According to Akpabio, “Nigeria as a country would not have survived the next few years if the fuel subsidy had not been removed, adding, salaries and wages of workers would be reviewed in order to ensure that Nigerians have a living wage.
“The Senate is very proud of your representatives in the 10th National Assembly. They are committed and dedicated members of the legislature and that means the people of Ekiti, the “land of knowledge” have a lot to offer this country particularly, the Senate. We will work with Ekiti State for the overall benefit of Nigerians.”
On his part, Governor Oyebanji commended Akpabio for his achievements in office in the last month.
He declared the total support of the people and government of Ekiti to the success of his tenure as the President of the 10th Senate and their readiness to partner with the legislature to move the country forward.
