It's not too late to be better, although the senate before then performed bellow expectation and frustrated Nigerian, but these days they've performed creditably well and they deserved to be praised
The news at red chamber these days is encouraging and given the patriotic Nigerian hope of belonging.
The amendments eg Local council election, to federal allocation, to the protection of federal might, issues of political office candidate.
infact all is well for Nigeria.
The interest of Nigeria is considered and well protected
weldone the senate.

That power has bow been given to the Independent National Electoral Commission."

We need to scrap the senate or at least downsize ...
It's too expensive for Nigeria to maintain such a house
Their salaries.. Welfare allowances constituency projects .,, these monies are mind bugling
It's only proper restructuring that can put that in place..
Youths should not celebrate mediocrity

Why are they so scared of GEJ..??
Am shocked that the Economy boom witnessed under GEJ is what APC hate to see again.

GEJ is coming back.

Senate is what? is it the immunity clause they pass for themselves..... they are bouche of selfcentered set of people
Re: Senate Is Working! by Nobody: 5:58pm On Jul 26, 2017
Even as a PDP man I have been saying it here that Saraki is the best Senate President I have seen and some were saying I must have drank the juju he gave to Kwara people

All of Kwara, all the senators, and all the Governors he led during his days can not all be wrong.

He always commands loyalty in power through leadership

Saraki is a very sophisticated politician

You have to give him that whether you agree with him on everything or not!

No matter, how you put an old system into a new casing, it will still behave like an old system.

The problem with Nigeria and by extension Nigerian politicians is mentality, Change that and see a working system.

The senators are the ones getting it wrong. Devolve more power to the states so they control their resources and be the ones contributing to the federal Government, not Federal Government sharing every month.

You don't get it, the fact that they keep earning and depend on allocations is one of the major reasons why many of them are lazy and useless today.
