No Anti-social Media Bill Before The Senate – Saraki by Nobody: 8:47am On Dec 10, 2015
By Omoh Gabriel
The Senate President Dr.Bukola Saraki yesterday
said there was no anti-social media bill before
the senate. Speaking on the sideline of Lagos
Business School Dinner in which he was a guest,
Saraki said “We have only debated the Principle
of the bill, we have not gone into the details of
the bill, so if there is any part of the bill that
does not conform to human right, be rest
assured that the senate will do the proper thing.
So there was no bill that was brought forward
called social media bill.

“I think there is need for clarity on that and to
let you know that those that led the protest, we
have received their letters, we have told them to
be rest assured that by the time it goes to
committee work, and go to public hearing some
of these things will come up. But you must
understand that when those bill come to the
floor of the senate they come as argument on
the principle of the bill, and the principle of that
bill was Frivolous Petition, nothing to do with
social media but later on we did find out that
there was a section in it about social media.
“That will go away when it comes to third
reading when you start the third reading, where
you consider section by section.

Delivering a speech titled “Macroeconomic
outlook for 2016 and legislative perspective at
Lagos Business School breakfast club end of the
year Dr. Bukola Saraki said “The 8th Senate is
today at an advanced stage of carrying out one
of the most far-reaching legislative reviews ever
embarked upon by the legislature in Nigeria with
the Doing Business Development Project which
is aimed at eliminating obsolete business
regulatory laws that have outlived their
usefulness and in their place provide adequate
legal, institutional and regulatory mechanisms to
drive a new modern economy.

“Prior to this we have strategically utilized
formal and informal meetings with key
stakeholders including the NBA, the SEC,
RMFAC, the ICPC, FIRS, and many other
relevant agencies of government and critical
industry leaders with a view to using gathered
information as a critical tool to fashioning out
what will make Nigeria a favourable investment
