No good thing comes without sacrifice, says Dogara

Yakubu Dogara, speaker of the house of representatives, on Saturday said that there is no success or achievement without sacrifice.

Dogara said this in Abuja during the inaugural reunion organised by the 1992 class of law graduates from the University of Jos.

Recalling how they all met, the number four man in the country advised them to contribute their quota to the system that moulded them.

“We came together looking timid and never knew what each one of us would be 24 years after graduation,” he said.

“We always believe that the Lord has a purpose for each one of us. You will never know the purpose why the Lord had assembled us at the same time as class mates.

“None of us knew what he or she could become in future and look at us all now, most of us are making successes in our different endeavours.

“Remember nothing good comes without sacrifice. We should use this occasion to reflect on what action we wish to take.

“Whatever we are today we cannot deny that we achieved them through what we got when we were in the University of Jos.

“Those achievements we have accumulated should be made available for the betterment of the society and much sacrifice is required of us.”
