“But beyond that, I am optimistic and I believe that all of us would have learnt our lessons.”
The Senate president also on the security situation in the country, expressing optimism that the nation would overcome its security challenges.
He added, “I believe this is the worst level we could get to. We cannot go beyond this level, it could only be better.
