with little knowledge I acquired in Pos111 and Pos114 both are collectively called Legislative.(bi cameral)........... senate is upper chamber while the House of rep is lower chamber. this name vary from one country to another in Us the lower is house of common and upper is house of Lord.......same as Britain the second type of legislative is Uni cameral with just one legislative chamber while bi cameral is two legislative chamber which Nigeria and Us are using. U cannot be a member of house of rep at d same time member of senate ..... just summary thou may be it can be of helpful 1 Like |

LordMecuzy:Is a matter of "Legislative Precedence" just like we have the House of Lords and the House of Comon in Britain. |

agabusta:if is on the case of equality, let the lower house be scraped out sonce they both perform the same function. 1 Like |

ArcToyin: The implication of that is that the areas that has more population will not have a representation that measures up. Imagine Ekiti state with 1.6m people having equal representation at the National Assembly with a Lagos with 12m people. If one is to be scrapped, it should be the senate. The House of Rep is closer to the people and are more vocal in representing the people than the senate. The senators seems to far away from the people they are representing- they sort of seem elitist. |

agabusta: These doesn't seem beautiful to me. It is duplicate of functions and more expenses to the nation at the detriment of the masses. I think it should be merged with equal amount of represention irrespective of state size. The nation spend about 150billion annually to keep these guys happy for doing the same job. |

agabusta: How can you say lower chamber members are closer to the people when both upper n lower chamber resides in Abuja. |

Martins301: My question is who have the power to scrap either of the chamber? |
