She however urged them to listen attentively and grasp as much as they can.
Declaring the Workshop open, the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Emeka Nduka notified the Assembly Staff that he approved the workshop in fulfillment of the promise he made to them during his interaction with them two weeks ago, wherein he told them that he would ensure that their yearning for being trained and retrained would be satisfied.
