The immediate past Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, Prince Clem Ikanade Agba CON, has congratulated a former member of the House of Representatives and All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain in Edo State, Hon. Abubakar Momoh, on his nomination by President Bola Tinubu, for ministerial appointment.
Agba said that the decision by President Tinubu to tap Hon. Momoh’s potential in his cabinet reflected the best option for Edo State at this time.
According to him: “Hon Abubakar Momoh is a committed APC leader and distinguished professional, whose contribution to the growth of the party and the country is invaluable.
“With him as a representative of Edo State in the Federal Executive Council, our people should rest assured that our State would enjoy a robust representation.”
He urged the Senate to, as a matter of legislative convention, accord Hon Abubakar Momoh the honour and privileges that legislators that appear before the Upper House for screening enjoy.
He also called on Edo people to look forward to Hon. Momoh stepping in the ministerial saddle to offer diligent services to the nation and the state.
