 The Senate leadership has resolved to pay a congratulatory visit to President Borla Tinnaboo for his imagines as chairman of the economic community of West African states, ECOWAS. The leadership is made up of Senate President Gotswilak Babio, his deputy Jibrene Borrell, and all the principal officers of the OPA legislative chamber. The resolutions passed by the lawmakers after deliberation on a motion were sponsored by the deputy Senate president of the Senate, Jibrene Borrell, presenting a motion on the floor. After Senate, Borrell said Tinnaboo's imagines as ECOWAS chairman in Guinea-Bissau reaffirms Nigeria's leadership role on the African continent in general and subregion in particular. The establishment of ECOWAS in 1975, Nigeria has played key leadership roles, particularly in the promotion of subregional security, defense of democracy and human rights, economy integration and collective response to security within the subregion and ECOWAS is even better placed under the chairmanship of President Borla Tinnaboo GCFR in the discharge of the above mandates among orders. We have a cause to celebrate that our president has been made the leader of ECOWAS. Mr. President, one way that this Senate and indeed the National Assembly will help Mr. President lead ECOWAS is through ECOWAS parliament. We have the parliament, I'm sure you will soon constitute the membership of the parliament. Issues that are germane to us and indeed across the ECOWAS community must be at the front banner and for us security, infrastructure development and these are some of the issues that Mr. President himself has championed before and has promised to champion. The President's statement about Nigeria is back. For me sir, being elected as President is wonderful but we also know that this is more of the rotate from time to time. What I find exciting and what commending is not the part of his election, it is the boldness with which he spoke, the confidence with which he spoke and denies the idea of one after the other coup plotters if they trade it on the sub-region and his commitment that the West Africa sub-region must defend democracy and that he will provide leadership for all of those things. For me it is not occupied of his arbata, it is what we do with the office. His first statement that day for me gave me confidence that truly this is the leader of the black world speaking to his brothers in West Africa. There is no going to be stopping this, we are still expecting that before Nigeria plays a leading role in Africa, when Nigeria has been going behind in playing international politics and international politics means respect for our citizens, means respect for our citizens, means also respect to dignity of labour of Nigerian people working in other countries. So I congratulate Mr President Tinibu on this occasion but I urge him to go for that, we are expecting that very soon he will be chairman of AAU so that we can use that position to address the issue of Nigerians living. In his remark, President of the Senate, Scott Sulakbavio expressed hope that President Tinibu's emergence will create an opportunity to address the ill treatment method on Nigerians in most of the West African countries. I had pointed out that once we pass through the door into the chambers, we drop the issue of minorities and otherwise, we are all senators of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and that is why there is unanimity of opinions here because the honour done to Mr President is an honour done to the entirety of Nigeria and to all of us.
