President Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday met with the President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, where issues of national interest were deliberated upon.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the meeting held at the State House, Abuja, between the president and the two leaders of the National Assembly (NASS) came barely 24 hours after the assembly announced its plan to hold another security summit to tackle the nation’s security challenges.

Speaking to State House correspondents at the end of the closed door meeting, the President of the Senate revealed that the national assembly would collaborate and cooperate with the executive arm of government in addressing the nation’s security and socio-economic challenges.

“What we have discussed are those things that will ensure that the people of Nigeria are better protected, the economy of Nigeria performs better to the inclusion of everyone in the country, that governance generally is set to achieve the set targets of providing security and welfare for Nigerians.

“We are going to collaborate and cooperate with the executive arm of government, work together to ensure we find better approaches, improved paradigm to address appropriately the current situation,’’ he said.
According to him, Nigerians stand to benefit a lot form the existing cordial relationship between the executive and legislative arms of government.

On the expected screening of ministers and other nominees, Lawan said the legislators would collaborate more and ensure speedy confirmation of appointees to enhance good governance.

Gbajabiamila, who also fielded questions from the correspondents, said the crisis in the Edo State House of Assembly would soon be resolved, having received the report of the committee that investigated the matter.

According to him, the House of Representatives will do the needful and possibly invoke the relevant section of the constitution, by taking over the functions of the Edo State House of Assembly, where necessary.

“As you know, we set an ad hoc committee, they went to Edo State, the report was laid and considered today and the context of the report is very clear.

“I think what we did was to stick strictly by the rule or by the law that guides the assembly and us as lawmakers.

“So, one of the recommendations, which I believed was approved by the House, was for us to have a proper proclamation with date, venue and time, which was missing in the first proclamation.

“The Edo House of Assembly have about a week to come up with the proper election of the principal officers.

“If in a week nothing changes, perhaps the House and the National Assembly as a whole would look at invoking section 11 of the constitution,’’ he said.

Please can they ban Egypt from hosting AFCON going forward?

How can I be watching AFCON with empty stadium seats as if it's a training?

This man trying to divide Nigeria with RUGA will not work, this maybe his sinister move to be the president, as he knew he has no third term ambitious bid and no room to change the constitute, thinking he would even step down should Atiku win court will the greatest joke of the century

Hmmmm @mbuhari have no reason to fail this time,both the judiciary and legislative arms are under his control.

Okay

Sometimes I can't help but wonder what this meeting can be about? Line are they really being patriotic I'm their dealing? Do they really lookout for things that will improve our country or things that will enrich their personal coffers.
I've come to discover that everything done by government is actually for the benefit of someone in government.

The stooge met their master

Funny enough anything our Leaders do becomes a plot against it's people because of the type of Leadership that we enjoy I'm this Country. Yet they will never learn from the past. Yet they call themselves Leaders. Sometimes you wanna wonder if this Guy's actually thinks

We need better security. Enough of the reckless violent killings and continuous kidnappings happening around the country.

I'm not comfortable with a National assembly that is too friendly with the president.

LET US ALL BRACE OURSELVES UP
NEXT LEVEL IS HERE


THE COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE LEGISLATIVE ARM AND THE EXECUTIVE IS A WELCOME DEVELOPMENT

UNLIKE THE LAST ASSEMBLY THAT WAS ALWAYS SLOWING DOWN THE PROGRESS OF THE NATION

I don't even read anything
I know 95% is for Northern benefit

Conflict ongoing between Cross River and Benue over Boundary... Insecurity Rise in my country is making me scared oo

you can not talk about security when you opened Nigeria border for your tribesmen all over Africa to freely come into Nigeria, they now see Nigeria as America where they seek greener pasture , Buhari cancelled the 5,000 immigration personal recruitment that past government was recruiting to tackle illegal immigrants then , this is what happens when you care less about illegal immigrants because they speak same language with you, because they are your tribesmen ,instead of kicking them out of our cities and forests , you want to build Ruga Barrack for them on other peoples ancestral land , I'm sure after ten years of kidnapping without control, they will demand for more land for expansion as killings continue.

the meeting is a mere gallivanting show ! criminals now come into Nigeria to raise capital for their business via kidnapping! Border security is very important here or else even your economy polices will be useless without immigrants population control.

Buhari will try to amend the law so he can have access to Southern Nigerian Land

Ok

Mad crazy economy. I feel sorry for Nigerians.

If its not madness, tell me how you can manage cashflow in an economy where you pay lawmakers in millions and cant afford to pay 30,000 minimum wage. What happens to the unemployed in such a country?

Nigerians are either the most docile psople on earth, or the most peace loving.

Senate President deceived us.
What's essence of meeting without ministers list?

1. Seems buhari has given them instructions to drop calls for security summit. Since the idea was first mooted by OBJ and PDP, buhari will rather die than try it out. He's that petty.

2. The ministerial list won't be coming before this National assembly go on break. Lawan knowingly parried that question unlike when he gave a straight reply that later burned him.

3. Gbaja is acting oshiomole and Tinubu's script on Edo. The HOR has no powers to order the ig or DSS DG. Those are executives and they don't answer to the legislature. Moreso, they can't order the governor as well neither can they order shutdown of a HOA. They can't do anything unilaterally. The powers they have over HOAs is jointly shared with senate

Ok. It is noted.

Do u think AFCON is their problem with the biting inflation they are struggling with, in the face of the partial removal of their oil subsidy?

AFCON is the least of all their problems

This is it. Rubber stamp senate.
My people, you're all on your own.
We better start forming our own government in our streets and estates. These people do not represent us.
