President of the Senate, Dr. Ahmad Lawan yesterday did an appraisal of the federal government and concluded that though President Muhammadu Buhari was trying his possible best, Nigeria was still going through trying times.

He also pledged the continued support of the National Assembly to the Buhari’s administration in its efforts to deliver on its campaign promises to the citizenry.

Lawan, who spoke in Gombe, at the launch of empowerment programme of Senator Sa’idu Ahmed Alkali (APC Gombe North) for his constituents, said Buhari had never rested for a second in his determination, in his desire to turn around the fortune of the country.

He said:

President Muhammadu Buhari who is the leader of this party (APC) in this country, who has given us great leadership from 2015 to date, who has shown great desire to turn around the fortune of this country, has never rested for a second.

He is doing his best even though we are still not out of the woods but we have done so much between 2015 and 2021.

The Chairman of the National Assembly also stated that the National Assembly will continue to support President Buhari to deliver on promises made to the Nigerian people.

By the Grace of God, the National Assembly will continue to support Mr President to ensure that he delivers on our campaign promises to Nigerians,

Lawan said.

The Senate President commended the Governor of Gombe State, Muhammad Inuwa Yahaya who is also of APC for the significant transformation brought to the state.

He applauded Senator Alkali for providing quality representation for his people at the National Assembly.
Lawan urged the Gombe people to consider giving both the Governor and the Senator another chance to continue with the good work they are doing for them.

At the event which held at the APC Square, Senator Alkali gave out Peugeot 406 cars, several hundreds of motorcycles, farming implements, sewing machines and refrigerators to his constituents.
