Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki has expressed the readiness of Nigeria Senate to screen with utmost despatch ministerial nominees that would be sent to it by President Muhammadu Buhari.

He gave this assurance on Tuesday in his office when French Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Denys Gaver paid him a courtesy visit in his office.

He said though the Upper and Lower legislative chambers were on recess, the Senate would ensure that the recess was suspended as a matter urgent national importance for purposes of ministerial screening if need be.


Saraki noted that “this is to ensure that the suspension of plenary does not disturb serious government business, like the screening of ministers”.

Disclosing the cooperation of National Assembly with the executive arm in fulfilling its promises to Nigerians, the Senate President said there was no limit to what the legislature could do to make sure that the current administration run a smooth tenure for the prosperity of the nation.

Thus, the legislature is ready to treat executive bills with all sense of seriousness it deserves, he further stated.

He noted that the Senate had since commenced work by the setting up of 18-man Committee to formulate a realistic and progressive legislative agenda, which he said would address issues like poverty alleviation, law enforcement, security, commercial disputes, eradication of corruption and investments in the Petroleum sector.
The French Envoy on his part described the crisis rocking the National Assembly as normal and which would at the end of the day produce a viable democracy.
On security matters, Gaver said it would soon be over, while stressing that Nigeria cannot afford to fail because of high expectations of other nations.
