A 12-year-old girl, Adetolani Adekanmbi, on Tuesday, April 8, took over the affairs of the Kogi State House of Assembly after the Speaker, Aliyu Umar Yusuf vacated his seat for her.
An aspiring parliamentarian, Adekanmbi visited the Kogi State House of Assembly Complex in Lokoja alongside her parents and siblings.
Encouraging the teenager, Yusuf said that no Nigerian child should give up his or her dreams for any reason.
He also noted that he could see a lot of potential in the girl as he stated that she would make a good parliamentarian in the future.
Urging her parents to continue encouraging and supporting the child, Yusuf said Adekanmbi would definitely grow up to become a great leader who would take society to greater heights.
