I served as a Federal Legislator in the year 2011 – 2015 and as the Deputy Chairman of the Committee of Human Rights at the lower chamber of the National assembly.
The primary duty of a legislator is to make laws, move meaningful motions and sponsor bills while the secondary duty is to lobby and supervise projects.
