In a vote of thanks, the beneficiary thanked the Sen. for the concern and assured him of his continued loyalty at all time.

“since the occurrence of the incident it was the distinguish senator that has been calling me to appeal with me to take the whole decision as an act of God and I have neither called him nor send him a text message when the suspension letter was issued to me, but he personally shows his concern by calling me severally” Sani added.
