First elected to the House of Representatives in 2011, Abbas used the occasion to highlight what he described as years of developmental projects and constituency interventions delivered under his leadership.

He recalled his earlier promise that representation would remain close to the people and focused on delivering practical benefits.

The Speaker also highlighted his legislative contributions, stating that he has sponsored 74 bills, out of which 21 have been signed into law.

He explained that the bills were designed to address real national challenges and strengthen governance rather than attract publicity.

Abbas further outlined several constituency projects, including support for farmers with tractors, fertilisers, and other agricultural inputs aimed at boosting productivity and strengthening the local economy.

He also noted that transport operators, youth groups, party structures, and small business owners benefited from empowerment tools such as motorcycles and tricycles to improve mobility and livelihoods.

According to him, a total of 117 vehicles, 200 tricycles, and 1,000 motorcycles were distributed across different communities and groups.

In addition, he disclosed that 2,400 people received financial assistance, while 800 trained beneficiaries got ₦250,000 each. Another 1,600 small business owners were given ₦100,000 each to support their enterprises.

Abbas said the interventions were part of efforts to strengthen economic stability at the grassroots level and support household income.

He added that his re-election bid would enable him to build on existing achievements and further advance development in Zaria Federal Constituency.
