Former Chairman, House of Representatives’ Committee on Appropriation, Abdulmumin Jibrin has insisted he will not quit politics.
Jibrin was defeated in the Kiru/Bebeji federal constituency rerun poll in Kano State on January 25.
Speaking with reporters on Thursday, the former lawmaker said his future is in God’s hands.
“The future looks very bright. And one has had a very interesting career in the House in the last 10 years.
“In these years, I have been a lawmaker holding two very sensitive positions in the House; chairing the Finance and Appropriations committees simultaneously; spending 10 years without being accused of stealing money that belongs to the National Assembly without being associated to corruption and without being accused of being incompetent or lacking capacity then I think I have to thank God Almighty,” Jibrin said.
Jibrin also stated that he is not looking for any compensation, for playing a key role in Femi Gbajabiamila’s emergence as Speaker of the ninth House of Assembly.
He added: “I am not looking out for compensation but again I am not tired to serve the country in any capacity either in my private capacity or again to call upon to provide services to the government.”
