It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.

There are people you will help, and they will hate you.
There are people that you will help and they will appreciate you. There are people that you will help, and you will enter into problems.
But keep helping.... You will never be left alone in your days of adversity, the maker of heaven and earth who took record of all your deeds will be there to help you too..

Good Morning Nigerians. Today I am going to give a short speech on Independence Day.
It is our 59! Independence Day, today. We must take part in the events with devotion. It is very important to honor the flag and sing national anthem. We must remember our brave freedom fighters on this day. Christians, Muslims and others must celebrate the day together in peace. It is also a national holiday today.
Thank You! Happy Independence Day!

The deputy speaker said that the House was willing to partner with the media, adding that the doors of the principal officers of the House would always remain open to answer and entertain inquiries from members of the fourth estate.
He assured that he would look into the needs of the press corps and try to provide training and other logistics within available resources to aid the coverage of the House.
Earlier, Chairman of the House Press Corps, Mrs. Grace Ike had congratulated the deputy speaker on his emergence as a presiding officer of the House, adding that the courtesy call was to congratulate and familiarise with him.
The chairman thanked Wase for honouring the corps by appointing one of its members, Mohammed Puma, as his chief press secretary.
Ike said that Wase’s new position was in recognition of his excellent performance as a legislator over the years and his enviable contributions toward nation building.
“We are partners in progress and would join hands with you to advance the cause of this House and the legislature at large. As members of the fourth estate of the realm, we have an obligation to report objectively and at the same time protect national interest.
“We are very conscious of our social responsibility and we are ready to support your office to the next level. There is no doubt that if our democracy must endure, there is need for a free press with improved welfare packages.
