Bello while receiving the elected members of 9th Assembly from Kogi state who paid him a courtesy visit on Thursday, March 14, after receiving their certificates of return said the well-being of the people of the state should be of paramount importance to the lawmakers.

Two senators out of three who contested and seven House Of Representatives members out of nine were elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress into the National Assembly.

He also said that Kogi people at various levels have conferred on them the right to legislate on their behalf and represent their interest at both the upper and lower chamber of the National Assembly.
