Agabi stated this on Tuesday at the Akye community constituency meeting with Alhaji Muhammed Alkali, member representing Lafia North constituency at the Nasarawa State House of Assembly.

The former gubernatorial candidate endorsed Alkali for another term come March election.

He said that their support followed Alkali’s track records of achievements so far as member representing the constituency.

He said that Alkali has the capacity and is doing well for his people, hence the need for their endorsement.

Responding, Alkali appreciated Agabi and other stakeholders for the endorsement.

Alkali, who is the Deputy Chief Whip and Chairman, House Committee on Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, pledged not to disappoint Agabi, stakeholders and other constituents.

“I will continue to make you proud by giving you and other people of our constituency good and quality representation, if given another mandate.

“I will do more, if voted for another term come March election,” he said.

He solicited for the continous support of Agabi, other stakeholders and people of the constituency to enable him succeed beyond 2023.

The lawmaker also urged the constituents to vote Sen. Bola Tinubu, Gov. Sule, Sen. Tanko Al-Mkaura and other APC candidates in the polls. (NAN)
