In the course of my engagement as a member of the House of Representatives, I have had the privilege of interacting with my colleagues. We have shared ideas on how to make a meaningful impact in our various constituencies. I must confess that the interactions have been engaging and an eye-opener for me. Most members of the 10th Assembly are in-tune with our reality, and the urgency to make a difference is intense.
One such individual is the Rt. Hon Benjamin Kalu, the deputy speaker of the House of Representatives. He is such a character that you find interesting because of his line of thought. He can be brash when the need arises. He can be meek, and he can also be a lion, depending on the circumstance.
