The Second session of the assembly, which was convened last Friday, was formally addressed by the Governor in a ceremony witnessed by members of the government and politicians. In the short address to the parliamentarians, Governor Adamu extolled the leadership of the 1st legislative session and urged the new session to work harmoniously with the executive to bring about progress in the state.

Governor Adamu said the administration will focus on the consolidation of our developmental initiatives in the areas of rural development, agriculture, co-operative ventures, education and healthcare delivery, which will become the main planks for action by this administration in the next four years. He therefore urged the parliamentarians to support him in this endeavour.

Speaking to the people of the state, he urged them to eschew bitterness and violence since democracy can only thrive in an atmosphere of peace. He also urged the assembly members to avoid internal wrangling as this would not be healthy for parliamentary practice and law making.
