He continues to accumulate accolades and praises for his outstanding achievements as a first-time lawmaker in the hallowed chamber. Ironically, he has weathered every recurrent storm to become one of the winners of the THISDAY group’s recently announced “Young Global Leaders” award ceremony. An uncommon feat.
