The senator representing Ebonyi South, David Umahi, has described Senate President Godswill Akpabio’s leadership as “divine”.
The former Ebonyi governor, screened on Tuesday, August 1, by his colleagues as one of President Bola Tinubu’s ministerial nominees, said the red chamber under Akpabio is not partisan.
Umahi expressed satisfaction that he is a member of the Senate led by Akpabio.
His words: “Let me thank Mr President for nominating me as one of the nominees for the office of minister of the federal republic of Nigeria.
“This is a very committed senate. A senate that is given and committed to the welfare of the country, the people, and the unity of the country.
“Mr. Senate President, let me thank you very highly for a very united Senate under you.
“In this Senate, in the number of months, I have spent, you have not allowed anything like partisan politics to take place, and that shows that you’re divine, and I am happy that God gave me the opportunity to be part of this Senate leadership. It is a privilege, and I want to thank you.”
