The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, says the inauguration of the 9th Senate has opened a new chapter in the annals of history.
He made this known while reacting to his emergence against all odds.
He assured that the 9th senate would work in the interest of Nigerians.
He said: “We all know what transpired in the past but what happened today has turned the page on 8th senate and we have moved on to the 9th senate.
“I look forward to working with my colleagues irrespective of political platforms. We will work together as brothers and sisters to move the senate forward.
“I attribute my victory to God and God only, there is no explanation for it.”
Omo-Agege emerged deputy president of the senate after polling 68 votes to defeat former deputy president of the senate, Ike Ekweremadu, who polled 37 votes.
