hisexcellency34: This particular 9th NASS should be disbanded. In all honesty, they have lost their purpose & the very value for which it was established. |

bolaayenimo:That is because they are his person appointees, it is like ministers asking the president to appear for questioning . This is what happens when the executive in the name of political party handpick leadership for them. Nigerians just have to deal with one arm of government currently "executive". Imagine the leadership of the judiciary is a ministry of Justice |

backbone503: The above section of the Constitution does not apply to when a president is called upon by the nass. If the nass the power to remove the president from office, how come they lack powers to call him to come and explain things to them. |

President Buhari is bringing Nigeria 's democracy to disrepute by his disrespect for constitutional processes. President Buhari show so much disdain for Nigeria democracy having enjoyed the privilege of being two time Nigeria leader that is as military head of state from December, 1983 to August, 1985 and as a democratically elected President from 2015 till date. Having enjoy two time presidency one expect him to behave as a democrat and show love for the country that gave him such a rare priviledge. The opposite is the case. |

The SAN with his legal knowledge and familiarity should at least be able to quote relevant parts within the constitution that says the legislature can summon the executive. I saw counter and quickly was expecting strong constitutional quotations and argument, but not rubbish about state of the union that's actually not a summon, but an invitation by the congress that the President can turn down or submitting the budget which is not a summon. Just imagine, SAN coming up with elementary and sentimental argument instead of real, substantive and constitutional facts and even precedents. The fact that this man with all his law degree couldn't come up with any coherent or logical views means there's nothing in that constitution that says the president can be summon. As a matter of constitutional facts, the Nigerian armed forces functions under the president as the commandeer in chief, not the legislature. |

He said “It depends on the angle you are looking at it. if it is from the angle of presenting a national budget, the constitution requires the President to lay the budget directly before the National Assembly www.nairaland.com/attachments/12815796_okonjo_jpeg9e3b0efd8d46ccd54da0800f8d587c42 So, this is Okonjo presenting the National budget before the National assembly, so where was the constitution requiring GEJ to present the budget? Was the constitution dead because PDP was in charge. These ignorant people they dash SAN to left and right talk rubbish every time they open their mouth. This is just too embarrassing. |

Georgejeez: The existence of check and balance is one of the main reason why the executive branch of government will claim executive privilege over the oversight functions of the legislative and judicial branches of the government. Therefore, again, the legislature can not summon or compel a sitting president as long as the doctrine of executive privilege exist. |

Georgejeez: Checks and balances was to make sure no one branch would be able to control too much power, and it created a separation of powers You are actually helping the president with that phrase. The 3 branches of government are powerfully equal, the executive is not subordinate to the judiciary. |

Why are you wasting your limited time explaining morning and night to someone that either chose to be dft base on material gain or is dft by default? You may soon be responsible for someone's mental health sickness because what you are trying to explain is too complicated for their understanding. |
