The Lawmaker representing Etinan/Nsit Ibom/Nsit Ubium Federal constituency, in Akwa Ibom State in the House of Representatives, Mr Onofiok Luke has advised Nigerian citizens to always call public officers to account through proper monitoring and questioning of government policies and programmes.
Luke made the call yesterday in Uyo while delivering a keynote speech at a Sit-out organised by Citizen’s Outreach NG with the theme “Redefining Citizenship for Good Governance”
His words, “We need to ask the right questions, else we may have dictators ruling us. Citizens participation is the very essence of democracy. Therefore you must ask the right and proper questions, using campaign promises. The more you give us space, the more we invade your privacy.
