"Politicians can only do this by settling their differences amicably. Politics is characterised by alignment and re-alignment of personnel but in doing this, politicians should not take actions or make utterances that can heat up the polity.

"We should ensure that we live in peace and harmony and that's when the country can grow and develop. Through this, Nigerians will enjoy real dividends of democracy," Oba Akiolu said.

The host Speaker, Rt. Hon. Obasa described Oba Akiolu as a supporter of truth and an agitator for justice.

"He has been a pillar of support for us. He has always stand by us and we have been drinking positively from his fountain of knowledge and wisdom," Rt. Hon Obasa said.
