No date for National Assembly Reconvening on INEC Budget

The Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki and Speaker, House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara, have directed that we inform all Senators, Honorable members and the public that a date has not been set for the reconvening of the Senate and the House of Representatives to consider the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) 2019 elections budget request forwarded by President Muhammadu Buhari on July 17, 2018.

The leadership of the two chambers had met and agreed to reconvene to consider the proposal this week before which a meeting between the Joint Senate and House of Representatives Committees on Electoral Matters and officials of the INEC must have held on or before Monday August 13, 2018.

The joint committees were also expected to meet with the joint Senate and House Committees on Appropriations, Loans and Debts on the Eurobond loan request after which two reports would have been ready for presentation in the two chambers.

However, no such meeting had taken place yet as a result of which both Senate and House of Representatives cannot reconvene as there is no report to consider.

Until the Committees have a ready report for the consideration of the two chambers, it will be most irresponsible to recall members from recess especially those that may have travelled to Saudi Arabia for the Hajj.

And they were all saying kwarans are slaves to saraki...Am sure by now we all knw all Nigerians are now slaves to him...imagine 1 person holding all Nigerians to ransom.and youths ar busy celebrating him...see politicians playing ludo with ur future

Can't we scrab this national assembly and use their insane salaries to employ thousands of Nigerians?I think the senate is enough..

Can't they do the necessary thing without involving this people.

APCoo or PDP ooo...they are only working for their pockets.
None has the interest of the populace at heart.
Just imagine a senatorial election and only three balls of tiny onions were used to cajoled the voters.

If they like they reconvene, if they don't its non of my business.

U want money to buy election materials but won't sign card readers to law
Who is fooling who
Saraki go on sou jera
Teach them that play ludo in Lagos that na chess dem dey play for abuja

Not only scrab.

Watch them come here with wailing.

They should go and force it open if they can.

Abubakar Bukola Saraki for President.
