ACCORD PARTY GARNERS SUPPORT FOR GOVERNOR ADELEKE FOR SECOND TERM Ahead of the August 15th Osun State governorship election, Accord party has urged the people of the state to re-elect Governor Ademola Adeleke, describing his administration as one that has delivered significant progress in infrastructure, education, healthcare, security and workers' welfare. In a statement, the party's National Chairman, Maxwell Mgbudem, said Governor Adeleke's achievements justify a second term and expressed confidence that voters would support the continuity of his administration. The party also called on the Independent National Electoral Commission and security agencies to remain neutral and ensure a free, fair, credible and transparent election. It further warned against vote buying, insisting that every valid vote must count, and described the Osun governorship election as a key test of INEC's readiness for the 2027 general election.
Today,the Senate passed the 3rd and Final Reading of the 'Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities {Prohibition} Bill {2016} {SB 22}.''.This is a highly significant bill that seeks to curb the abuse in all forms of Nigerians with disabilities.Most importantly,this bill seeks to promote the respect of the rights of all Nigerians with disabilities.In the 6th and 7th Assembly,this bill was also passed,however,for one reason or the other,it was not signed into law.The Senate President said ''Many of you will remember that earlier this year,when i met with the leaders of the Centre for Citizens with Disabilities,i promised that the Senate would work on examining ways to strengthen our laws for people with disabilities.With what the 8th Senate has done today by passing this bill for its third and final time in the Red Chamber,it is my hope that this National Assembly can finally break this jinx by getting it passed by the House of Representatives and assented into law by Mr President''.
