Posting on X, the former lawmaker said the deceased defended the honour of the parliament.<\/p>\n

He wrote: \u201cHon Ghali Umar Na\u2019abba, Ex-Speaker House of Representatives. He lived an accomplished life.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe saved Nigeria\u2019s democracy at its most crucial moment. He upheld and defended the honour and independence of the parliament.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout the courage and principles of the likes of Ghali, the term limits for Governors and Presidents would have been expunged from our constitution. Ghali spoke for justice and stood for freedom.<\/p>\n
