Rep Jonathan Gaza ( SDP- Nasarawa) has assured his constituents of better representation in the 10th Assembly.
Gaza, representing Karu/Keffi/Kokona Federal Constituency, made the pledge at his Thanksgiving Service and Reception held in Karu Local Government Area of the state on Sunday.
The Thanksgiving Service had earlier taken place at the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), New Karu branch.
Addressing newsmen at the reception, Gaza said the support, faith and love shown by his constituents had only put on him a moral burden to do more for them, hence his resolve to better represent his constituents in the 10th Assembly.
“I just want to cry out to my loved ones, keen supporters and constituents to remember me in their prayers so that I will be able to satisfy their expectations, which of course, are my desires and I know with their support I will finish well and finish strong.
“I also know that by the time I am through, Karu/Keffi/Kokona will be a much better federal Constituency,” he said.
He added that he would build on the successes recorded in the 9th assembly and introduce new legislations in the 10th Assembly to improve the livelihood of his constituents, people of Nasarawa State and the country in general.
“I want them to expect more of that which allowed them vote for me to come to the 10th assembly.
“Those are the priorities I will build on. So, if I did little in the 9th assembly, I intend to do more in this new assembly. By God’s Grace, I intend to do more for them in the 10th assembly,” he said.
Also, Mr Danlami Mohammed, SDP Chairman in the state, said the fact that Gaza still won the federal Constituency election after defecting from APC to SDP, showed that he was a man loved by his people, irrespective of party affiliation.
He assured the constituency of Gaza’s determination to introduce new legislations targeted at changing their lives for the better, hence the call for them to continue to support and pray for him.
“What we have seen concerning Gaza shows that he is a man of the people, irrespective of tribe, religion or party affiliation. You can see how so many people have come to embrace and celebrate with him.
“That makes me happy. That makes the party happy because if he continues to carry his people along and represent them as they have asked him to, then that means in the next election he will win again with a landslide. Those are the kind of people we want as our representatives in any elective position,” he said.
Similarly, Mr James Thomas, Chairman of Karu Local Government Area, showered praises on the federal lawmaker for his strides in representing the constituency for the past 8 years and winning another term to the NASS.
