Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, on Thursday, tasked his colleagues that their deliberations on the Electoral Act Amendment Bill come at a very special moment in the nation’s history and would require them to do all in the best interest of Nigerians.

Addressing other legislators during a heated plenary on the electronic transmission of poll results on Thursday, Gbajabiamila warned that whatever decision is taken must not be done out of selfish interest.
