At the palace of the Maigeri, he said, “You will recall how we brought in 22 Ambulances, 550 beds and mattresses, the construction of market stalls in four local government areas, construction of cottage hospitals, bursary awards for students, and the purchase of hundreds of vehicles for constituents, including traditional rulers across the seven Local Government Areas”

“With over 97% attendance with dignity at all sittings, apart from impacting positively in the lives of the constituents in the area of empowerment and infrastructural facilities, we tried to emancipate our people even spiritually by sponsoring hundreds to Mecca and Jerusalem”

The traditional ruler advised the Senator to be a voice for the people of Kogi West.

The monarch also recalled the impactful projects Smart accomplished in the past for the people of Kogi West.

The monarch said he believed Senator Smart will do more after his election.
