“As governor, senator and now as @SPNigeria (Senate President), I have never attempted to stifle anyone’s freedom to speak his [or] her mind. This will not change.
“As a public servant who has subjected himself in the service of my country, I face criticisms everyday from many quarters. Criticism does not deter me from serving my country. I learn from constructive criticism. It inspires me to continue working.
“My colleagues and I will continue to work to pass legislations that will make life better for all Nigerians.”
