He commended the House of Assembly for its cooperation over the years noting that his administration could not have achieved the much it did without the strong support of the Assembly and Deltans.

“To have found time to work through these bills in spite of the electoral campaigns shows that you have stayed committed to our people who voted you into office.

“We will continue to remember you in the course of history because a lot has been done over the past seven and half years during which we have truly impacted on our people.

“We could have done better if we had a better security because we need a secured country for us to be able to impact more meaningfully to the people.

“But under the circumstances we have found ourselves, working with our people, we have delivered the dividends of democracy to the best of our ability” he explained.

He promised that his administration will remain functional and continue to impact on the lives of our people, including the youths to make them get entrepreneurial skills that will ultimately make them self-reliant
