Know now that the SENATORS in the SENATE ARE NOT FOR YOU. So they can VETO the presidents refusal when it affects their own interest but when it comes to bills that will be for the nation, they will be tossing it up and down, oya also VETO the presidents refusal to pass the PEACE CORP BILL and if the excuse is that there is no money, take a pay-cut and fund that job-creating agency. 3 Likes |

See how they are flexing muscles on matter that has nothing to do with common people. They want to remain in power by all means, luckily for them, majority of the masses have been turned into "robotic mob": they follow the dictates of their greeds... no sense. Think of it, how will this nonsense bill address or correct the basic problems they themselves represent or constitutes in the realm of the Masses? I don't blame them, we gave them the confidence to be shameless and daring. 1 Like |

All of these problems which the President is facing turn out to be his fault entirely. Here's a President who felt it was not important to influence who became the Senate President and the HOR speaker. Am quite sure he's learning his lesson now. All the presidents we have had have always influenced the national assembly elections for its principal officers. But Baba chose to remain indifferent. Now he's paying for Saraki's emergence. Almost every Nigerian especially on nairaland is a two-faced hypocrite. It's very convenient to say 'what is Buhari scared of? Why can't he sign it' But never conveconvenient to say 'what is the Senate scared of? Why this amendment when we have very important matter bothering this country.' Buhari is bad, Buhari is bad. But the option the wailers put forward is the same very PDP. Never again! Buhari will be president till 2023. Saraki might return to senate but he won't be senate president in 2019. Let him enjoy his senate presidency while it lasts. 1 Like 1 Share |

Ijaya123:Wailers are very quick to ask 'Why is the President afraid to sign?' But the question they run away from is; 'Why are the senators afraid to maintain status quo?' Buhari should not make the same mistake he made with Saraki's emergence. He must play the politics this time around and make sure that the elections are not reordered. |

Buhari should just get as many governors to his side as possible and forget about these senators. The senators have little or no political value to the President. Infact no matter which election comes first, all he needs is the governors on his side. And deal ruthlessly with these legislooters. 1 Like |

The national assembly is the biggest problem in Nigeria! You just have a gang of thieves in there stealing whatever they could lay their hands on. Look at their salaries and allowances and you'd feel sorry for Nigeria. They even get ridiculous stuffs like "hardship allowance, newspaper allowance, car allowance, house allowance, etc etc." The United States is the richest country in the world but over here the only thing congress men and women receive are their basic salaries and nothing else. In fact, their remuneration is so meager that many of them can't even afford the high apartment rent in Washington, DC; hence they sleep in their offices. Yet in one of the poorest countries in the world, their leaders tend to steal everything in the treasury. God will judge the Nigerian leaders .... all of them! O pari FixNaija: 1 Like |

Buhari is the first Nigeria president to not sheld his supporters in their impunity and in as much as he apper incompitent, he is better than most presidents from northern extraction. I think he did not assent the Senate's reorder of elects due to the witch Hunt pressure from some evil people around him but he sure knows that the senate will surely finish the work mostly because it favors them more. Believe me, this is the best and most confident senate in Africa today and Nigeria is slowly but steadily on the path to brighter splender future. Long live Nigeria Long live our leaders Long live saraki and ekweremadu. |

I DON'T THINK ANYBODY IS AFRAID OF SOMETHING OR SOMEBODY. BUT I AM QUITE SURPRISED THAT AT A TIME WHEN WE SHOULD ALL BE THINKING OF CUTTING THE COST OF THIS PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM, THE SAME VERY EXPENSIVE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY IS THINKING OF INCREASING COST BY STAGGERING ELECTIONS. WHY CANT WE DO ALL ELECTIONS IN ONE DAY INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OUR ECONOMY FOR WHOLE 3 DAYS AS THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY ARE SUGGESTING.

this is what our senators knows how to do.the veto is only for there selfish interest. inec is an independent body. now i want to ask why will the senate want to reorder the order of election if not for there own selfish interest. why cant the governorship election come first, state HOA then presidential and HOA last. rather they want there's to be first then others can follow next. stupid idiots that can only boast of peace corp bill as the only tangible bill since 2015 after wasting billions on them.
