The Speaker, Benue House of Assembly, Mr Terkimbi Ikyange said economic empowerment of his constituents remained his topmost priority.

Ikyange stated this on Saturday in Manor-Ikov Council Ward of Ushongo Local Government Area of the state during the flag off of his empowerment scheme.

He pointed out that if his people are empowered economically they would be self reliant, adding that by so doing they could be financially independent.

He stated that the decision to empower his constituents was borne out of the fact that if majority of them are empowered they would also be of tremendous assistance to others.

”I am sure this is going to have a multiplier effect in our constituency because the people that are empowered today will certainly extend this gesture to others.

”With this in mind I pledge to continue to support my constituents in order to improve their well being,” he said.

He enjoined his people to be patient with the present administration, stressing that it assumed office during the country’s turbulent period.

He, however, said that the situation would soon improve and the dividends of democracy would trickle down to all the nooks and crannies of the country.

He also assured them of quality legislation that could trigger growth and development in the state.

Also, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman of the local government, Mr Abraham Soo, commended the speaker for initiating the scheme, stating that it was a right step in the right direction.


Soo prayed God to continue to bless him so that he would actualise all life ambitions.

He further urged him to continue to pilot the affairs of the assembly creditably in order for posterity to judge him aright.

The Speaker donated assorted items to the beneficiaries which cut across the 11 council wards of the local government. Items donated include motorcycles, sewing machines, generators, water pumps, knapsack sprayers, clippers, vulcanizing machines, weaving machines and garri processing machines.

Each ward had 15 beneficiaries, totalling 165 in all.

You are making great sense but please it is "Fulanis" not "Fulani's" and you should use "have" not "has", the 'a' is quite unnecessary, "would" is more appropriate not "should" (the second "should" you used). Thank you

Note... Please I'm not perfect, just pointing out your mistakes. Wouldn't mind if someone does that to me too
