Reps Bury Peace Corps Bill by sirequity(m): 1:55pm On May 24, 2018
THE House of Representatives on Thurday buried the hope of reviving the Peace Corps bill.

The bill, sponsored by Emmanuel Orker-Jev (APC, Benue) seeks to turn the Peace Corps, currently a non-governmental organisation, into a government para-military agency.

The National Assembly had earlier passed the bill. On sending it to President Muhammadu Buhari for his assent, the president refused to sign it into law, sending it back to the two chambers.

Buhari stated that his reason for refusal was because of scarcity of resources.

Both lawmakers from the Senate and the House had threatened to veto the president on the bill.

However, on Thursday, the bill failed to pass the second reading at the lower legislative chamber.

I still don't really understand the difference between civil defense and police. At least we know say Army dey ground, airforce dey breeze, navy dey river.

If they approved peace corps, them man o'war sef go begin lay bill for the house.

Bro It is high time you get a life. Will the Peace corps employ only Igbos and IPOB? The same Hausa will benefit more through quota system.

I know this twitter senator is behind the peace corps nonsense....., shocked

No wonder he keeps castigated pmb every day.....

How on earth can a nongovernmental organization change to military organization and expect it to succeed . cool

God bless pmb for not bn foolish like the former ineffectual buffoon.

God bless Nigeria
