Infrastructural Development Under APC Is Unrivaled – Lawan

Senate president, Ahmad Lawan, says the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been able to achieve so much in the face of dwindling revenue and meagre resources.

Lawan made the assertion on Thursday during the presentation of the party’s flag to Adamawa state senator, Elisha Abbo, who joined the ruling party from the peoples democratic party (PDP)

Lawan, who hailed Abbo for joining the party, said the country was badly governed during the days of abundant resources and huge revenue generation.

He averred that everyone must contribute their quota to ensure Nigeria gets the type of development its deserves.

“We want to commend out brother, Senator Abbo for taking the right decision at the right time. Nigerians need every hand on deck. This ship is going to reach the final destination by the grace of God,” Lawan said.

“We will continue to be committed to making Nigeria better irrespective of the resources available to us. We had our good days in revenue, but those days were bad days in performance”

Lawan noted that, despite the dispiriting level of the country’s reserve, the nation has never witnessed the kind of infrastructural development that’s taking place in it.

“Now, it is reverse. Our revenue is so low; in fact, it has not been this bad and yet infrastructural development in Nigeria is unprecedented. With so little, the whole country is now infrastructure sites from the east to the west, from the north to the south.”

He also commended Buni for reconciling aggrieved members of the party.

“I want to commend you Mr. Chairman for sincerely steering the ship of our party since you were given that responsibility by the NEC of our party,” he said.

“I want to commend you and the committee for doing excellently well for reconciling most of our chapters and for bringing some of our people who had left the party for one grievance or another.
