 The current outgoing Spokesperson of the Knight House of Representatives at Bank of Padden, Honourable Benjamin Kalu, has thrown his art into the ring for the speckish praise of the 10th Legislative House. He says he is modern ready and properly equipped to occupy the converted city presently occupied by Honourable Femi Bacha Biamile, who has held sway since 2019. Honourable Kalu says Nigerians need a diversity-sensitive leader who understands the different sentiments of the people of the country and also uses it to build a great country where everyone will have a sense of belonging. The energy of the new people coming on board is that energy that says we want to see freshness in governance and that is what I'm bringing on board transformative legislative interventions you know that is based on innovations and it is only people like us who have been equipped to be able to bridge that. Speaking for the the lawmaker said that for 40 years the South Eastern part of the country has not produced a speaker since the tenure of Honourable Edwin Umezoke as such now is time for the South East and he's prepared to lead his colleagues. From 1983 to date we're talking about 40 years of my people not sitting on that seat. The question is why? Is it that we don't have competent people? Is it that there is no capacity to be there and it is high time we you know introduce our capacity to Nigerians our competence to Nigerians that 40 years four decade was long enough for us to hold the gavel for the House of Representative. We know we will do well when we occupy that position because of what we are thinking of bringing on board that will strengthen our democracy knowing that this is the fulcrum of our democracy.
