This is contained in a statement issued by Mr Lanre Lasisi, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, on Friday in Abuja.
Gbajabiamila made the commitment during his outreach programme at the Durumi IDP Camp, where he donated food and sanitary items to the Durumi and Kuchigoro IDP camps.
Represented by Hamzat Baba, Special Assistant on IDPs, the speaker urged the displaced persons not to despair and assured them that they had not been forgotten and would not be left behind.
He said efforts would be made to ensure that every Nigerian that had suffered the misfortune of being forced to flee their homes would be encouraged to return to productive livelihood.
Gbajabiamila donated over three hundred bags of rice, cartons of vegetable oil, cartons of noodles, packs of hand sanitisers and bags of face masks among other items.
“We are here to extend our arms of fellowship to our brothers and sisters who, in flight from conflict and deprivation, have come to find a measure of peace in the protection of this camp.
“We have come bearing gifts which we hope will in some small way, help to improve the circumstances of life for all those who are resident in this camp.
“More than that, we have come bearing assurances that you have not been forgotten and you will not be left behind,” he said.
The speaker also made a commitment of his time in office, to ensure a return to productive livelihood for all citizens of Nigeria who suffered the misfortune of being forced to choose between dying at home and running away to survive.
“Allow us the honour of spending the day with you as brothers and sisters, and may God bless and keep us all through the challenges of the present times,” the speaker said.
Responding, Mr Idris Halidu, the Coordinator/Spokesman of Abuja-based IDPs, commended the gesture of the speaker, adding that Gbajabiamila was the first lawmaker to remember IDPs in Abuja since the outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic.
“The speaker has been around for a long time and we know him, he is not a bench warmer; he has been very active and proactive.
“He is the first to remember us since the outbreak of this pandemic.
“As we thank him for this kind gesture, we implore him to help to resuscitate the IDPs Bill.
“It passed second reading in the Eighth National Assembly but could not go further. We want to encourage him to assist in revisiting the bill,” the IDPs spokesman said.

In a strongly worded statement issued on Saturday, April 18, the group described Chief Obaro as a loyal party stalwart, a grassroots mobilizer, and a man of proven integrity who has remained consistent in his commitment to the growth and unity of the APC in Kogi Central and beyond.
According to the stakeholders, the endorsement of Chief Obaro is a reflection of the collective will of the people, borne out of extensive consultations across the five local government areas in the district. They emphasized that his candidacy represents fairness, inclusivity, and the genuine aspirations of party members who have long yearned for credible and people-oriented representation.
The group, however, raised serious concerns over what it described as subtle moves by certain interests to impose an unpopular candidate on the people, warning that such actions could have grave consequences for the party’s fortunes in the district and the state at large.
“We call on the national leadership of our great party and His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to intervene decisively to protect the democratic values of the APC in Kogi Central. The era of imposition must give way to the will of the people,” the statement read.
The stakeholders further cautioned that any attempt to sideline the popular choice of the people may trigger widespread disaffection, voter apathy, and protest votes that could undermine not only the senatorial election but also the overall electoral strength of the party in 2027.
“Chief Momoh Yusuf Obaro is our consensus choice. He embodies the trust, capacity, and connection required to deliver quality representation. Any attempt to impose an unpopular candidate will be resisted democratically by the people, even if it means casting protest votes,” the group declared.
Reaffirming their loyalty to the APC, the stakeholders urged party leaders at all levels to prioritize unity, fairness, and internal democracy as key pillars for sustaining electoral success.
They concluded by calling on all party members and supporters in Kogi Central to remain vigilant, united, and committed to the collective goal of ensuring credible representation and the continued progress of the party.
