“Although worried, they are reluctant to appraise and applaud this humble resolution by Barr Jimoh Ibrahim to move on believing the president to not only encourage formidable internal mechanisms but also map out strategies to strengthen internal democracy as described, promised and discussed.
“Significantly, it is a known fact that Sen. Jimoh Ibrahim CFR PhD had always stood for something over the years to effect his principled desire and vision towards expanding sociopolitical horizon.
