While I am unsatisfied with the number of crucial bills that failed to pass, I am still rather pleased that we even got to this point were the constitution is being ammended meaning we as a collective agree the 1999 constitution is rather flawed .

Moving on there is still alot of work to be done

Seems these Senate guys are not that receptive to change like their house of rep counterparts.

Why did they failed to pass the bill that allow online courts? This bill will go a long way in helping to hasten judgment delivery.

But so far I commend them on other bills passed. At least they make some progress and I hope in the nearest future they can do something like this to include state police to those bills.


They are sets of analogue fools.

When you see videos of Tinubu's incontinence, falling over while attempting to stand and his tremors, you can't help concluding that his motivating factor for contesting for the presidency is "if Buhari can do it, why not me?"

Maybe the total number of votes wasn't enough for a yes/no decision so the voting failed.

It’s the bill that allows one to be indigene of any state that I like the most. Because, some people have made a great impact in a state, but got denied to contest in that state because they’re not “indigenes” of the state.

There are a number of judiciary related bills that if passed, would have significantly reduced the burden on innocent Nigerians held in various prisons around the country. I only wish there was a bill that increases the number of judges at all levels across the nation. It will help reinforce the belief in the Judiciary as the last hope of the common man. Tackle delay tactics deployed by corporate and individual bodies to frustrate opponents, allow ordinary Nigerians to go to court more frequently instead of giving up on getting justice due to a long time it would usually take to get justice, and by consequence, significantly reduce police corruption.

How about the bill to ban Tinubu from any elective position?
Re: Constitutional Amendment: Senate Begins Voting by Nobody: 4:32pm On Mar 01, 2022
Yankiss:
This is an eye opener in why we must be careful of who represents us and follow what they do out there. A bill for timeline for criminal and civil cases should have been passed. This saves litigants and leaves with less cases of jungle justice. People resort to self-help when they find it frustrating to obtain justice. The bill on sits for women was defeated because not enough women in the national assembly to fight for it. The only bill I am happy about is the declining to grant immunity for legislative and judicial officers. Bill on LGA financial autonomy is okay but the governors will find a way to circumvent it and continue as usual. Is it not t Nigeria?
Which part of the country will those special seats for women come from? Women are eligible to fight for every seat and should not be restricted to special ones.

Bola Tinubu’s wife is a Senator, he is not one of those men who feels a woman’s role is in the house (Kitchen & Bedroom), respect Jagaban, or are you a housewife?

where will they create seats from, for women to have special seats is not the true definition of equity
Every sex has the right to contest and once you regard a seat as a special seat, they will only be seen as special seats and wont be accorded the true respect they deserve
