He noted that training and retraining of staff are imperative for enhanced productivity and national development.

Also speaking, the Clerk, House of Representatives, Dr Yahaya DanZaria noted that the best way to attain optimal performance and productivity is through the empowerment of staff.

Similarly, Mr. Paul Adiu and Idowu Adebukola, who participated in the training, were hopeful of a positive outcome from the training as they believed it would enhance their capacity to support legislators in law-making processes.
