  The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dr. Tajudeen Abbas, has challenged former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar and former Anambra Governor Peter Obi to present their records of achievements in public office. 

Abbas threw the challenge while addressing supporters during the distribution of firefighting equipment, medical outreach materials and vehicles to traditional rulers in Zaria on Sunday. 

He urged Nigerians, particularly residents of Zaria, to assess political candidates based on their previous performances in public office rather than campaign promises and political rhetoric. 

The Speaker specifically challenged Atiku to identify at least three significant development projects he executed for Northern Nigeria during his eight-year tenure as Vice-President. 

"Ask him what he achieved for Northern Nigeria during his eight years as Vice-President. Let him identify at least three significant projects he attracted to the North," Abbas said. 

He also challenged Obi to list three major projects he executed during his eight years as Governor of Anambra State. 

"Let them come forward and tell Nigerians what they did when they had the opportunity to serve. Leadership is about track record, not just talk," he said. 

Abbas said President Bola Tinubu had within two years demonstrated commitment to national development through economic reforms, infrastructure projects and support to states. 

He urged the people of Zaria to continue to support the present administration, saying the constituency had benefited from federal presence in education, health and infrastructure. 

The Speaker said the distribution of the items was part of his constituency interventions to strengthen emergency response, improve healthcare delivery and enhance traditional institutions. 

Items distributed included sophisticated firefighting equipment, medical outreach materials and vehicles for traditional rulers in Zaria Federal Constituency. 

Abbas assured residents that more interventions in education, health, water and empowerment would follow. 

   The event was attended by traditional rulers, party leaders, community leaders and supporters from across Zaria.
