He hits the political space like a cyclone. His emergence as a Nigerian lawmaker in the National Assembly bespeaks a square peg in a square hole and this is evidenced by the quantum steps he has been taking to justify the mandate given to him by the people of Ibadan South East and North East federal constituency in Oyo state.
As an efficient lawmaker, Abass Agboworin has been making successful strides in bringing meaningful bills to the floor and he is regarded as one of the few reticent members who talk less to curry favour but vocalise more with his actions in advancing pro poor bills that ranks him among the most effective members in the 10th Assembly.
The astute lawmaker who is currently the Chairman House Committee on Narcotics drugs has blazed an exemplary trail in the efforts to vitiate the effects of Narcotics drugs and psychotropic substances in the Society thereby discouraging and alleviating the illicit trafficking in the substance.
He significantly berthed the NDLEA bill now an act which enhances professional efficiency of the anti drugs agency by facilitating the establishment of the laboratory for drugs analysis.
As a second timer in the house and a leader imbued with what Daniel Gòleman
refers as “emotional dimension of leadership” he understands the emotional reality of drugs abuse in the Society and therefore move in the right direction to mitigate the ugly trend.
The emotional intelligence has always been his strength. It was what made him excelled as a retired navy (Seabees), from US navy, the feat which has sacraĺised him for the task ahead.
It’s owing to this sterling qualities, large hearts and emotional intelligence of Hon Agboworin that made a staunch party man and chieftain of PDP in Oyo state who doubles as the Special Assistant to the state Governor, Engineer Seyi Makinde, Hon Dare Adeleke in what can be likened to a testimonial advert avers “Hon Agboworin is unparalleled and his constituency project are second to none”. Truly, his mega empowerment and superlative sharing of dividends of democracy in his constituency will linger for a long time.
Hon Adeleke further stamps it “Hon Abass Agboworin’s achievements are unprecedented in the annals of Representation in the State.”
