Dennis Idahosa : A Lawmaker And His Fulfilment Of His Oath To God And To Humanity

In politics, a mandate is interpreted as the power to implement a policy that is thought to have been granted by the electorate to a party or candidate that wins an election.

Every politician who is elected takes an oath, and this is not merely a formality; the oath is a public pledge that the official understands the responsibilities of the position and will work to meet or exceed those responsibilities.

Those taking the oath must fully consider the oath’s purpose and all of its significant implications.

An oath is a formal promise that traditionally calls upon God or another object that the swearer regards as sacred to bear witness to their sincere desire to uphold that promise.

In this way, the oath was historically thought to bind the oath taker not only to human laws, but also to a higher moral authority.

Hon Dennis Idahosa, the National Assembly lawmaker representing Ovia Federal Constituency, has indeed fulfilled his responsibilities to his constituents as well as to God, to whom he swore to deliver the dividends of democracy to the good people of Ovia.

His outstanding performance demonstrates his high moral standards, both to God and to man.
