Is Practising Bi-cameral Legislature In Nigeria Still Useful? by Emmytrill(m): 5:13pm On Jan 12, 2016
I know some people will say has it ever been useful?

Personally, i don't see any reason why we should still be practising a bi-cameral system of legislature! Imagine a bunch of 109 senators and 360 House of Representative members having a budget of 115 Billion Naira! shocked at this period of economic downturn cry.

For me, i think the senate of 109 members is enough since there are three representative from each state, which i think is a bit fair. The House of Representative should be scrapped. whats your opinion?

We have no business or resources to run two chambers

It simply means dividing the House of Assembly into two! (Senate & House of Representatives)
