By Deji Elumoye in Abuja

President Muhammadu Buhari has declined assent to five more bills bringing the total number of bills rejected by the president since June 2015 to 26.
This was contained in separate letters written by President Buhari to the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, where he cited various reasons for declining assent and read at plenary on Wednesday.

The affected Bills include Nigeria Film Corporation Bill, Immigration (Amendment) Bill, Climate Change Bill, Chartered Institute of Pension Practitioners Bill and Digital Rights and Freedom Bill.

The Senate also on Wednesday suspended plenary by two weeks to April 2 to enable the committees work on the 2019 Appropriation Bill.

The Senate Leader Ahmad Lawan, had in moving the motion for adjournment, said the suspension of plenary will enable the senators concentrate on the committee work for the 2019 budget to be passed on time.

Should be Cabal rejects more bills.

Saraki has done his part in signing the minimum wage bill of Nigerian workers.

But Nigerian workers shouldn't rejoice yet because buhari we all know will set up more and more committee to look into the bill before signing it .

Buhari is a saddist .

Self employment is bae.

The man at his back self don tire for am.

If a president is foolish enough to sign bills rushed on his desk by the sinking 8 assembly headed by saraki then he isn't fit to govern

The same Saraki that snakishly added a cluase that stated result would only be acceptable only if it was sent electronically, just three month to election knowing fully well that even his kwara can't boost of 70% internet penetration over there landmass,

he greedily wanted to reorder election sequence , so that we could have wasted a whole weekend for senatorial election not minding inec overhead cost.

They tried pressuring Buhari using there twitter influencers, And Media but failed. I believe they would still fail.

That was how Jonathan was tricked to sign the worst sales agreement known to mankind by selling off PHCN to some few elites without any buy back clause or arcertaining if the new distribution company has capacity to provide meters And transformers. Till now just because of one mans hasty signature, we all have to contend with fraudulent estimated billing

1 or 2 days is enough for the president to go through the bill he personally sent to the senate .

What I am sure of, is that the minimum wage bill isn't going to be signed before May 29.

That means Nigerian workers will have to wait more longer

Chei

In a proper setting the house must have a liason officer meeting the executive on progress of bills . You don't just dump a bill And make a U-turn. Lobbying goes both ways

Buhari should put the interest of Nigerians before his

It shouldn't always be about what will benefit him and his family ..

Bubu again

The Senate Leader Ahmad Lawan, had in moving the motion for adjournment, said the suspension of plenary will enable the senators concentrate on the committee work for the 2019 budget to be passed on time.

We are with you Daddy.
We believe in you to take our raped and looted nation to the NEXT LEVEL.
You are laying a good foundation for us already.
Lets go there Bubu......
We sane and almost 16 million Nigerians that voted for you, are in Safe hands.
We know you ALWAYS mean the best for us.

You are on point, you make sense, see as the man dey look like lalasticlala watching snake thread

He may not be aware of those bills

Baba go slow will never disappoint

Saraki and his dying breed in the Senate want to surreptitiously send booby-trapped legislation for Buhari to sign. They think it's still GEJ in power?

Una say Buhari no go school, no worry. When e come from school, e go read am.

He prefers decrees to laws no wonder he is declining assent upandan!

Smart president

Learning politics albeit very late.

Buhari...


See my signature

Okay

Saraki has failed.

I really wonder how Saraki would be feeling right now. He has been rubbished and is of no consequence any longer.

All the tricks and gimmicks he's been trying has been failing.

Chai, Buhari has wrecked mesujamba

Saraki Saraki Saraki. How many times did I call you. This is not Kwara State where you could just scam people anyhow. Even now for Kwara State, dem don give you RED CARD.

There's a reason he's called the Lifeless one.

Do you know that when the Bill is signed, it becomes Law. Would you rather have a defective law. The National Assembly should do a thorough job, not just shouting aye and nay. The National Assembly worked on the Electoral Act for eight months until close to the election. Anyway, we elected them

Chzzxx ea adg

This man is too conservative for a change. Everything about him is static, he rejects everything new.

wtf do you mean

Jeez!

He didn't assent to "Climate Change Bill"...with the whole awareness about climate change and it's devastating effect on mankind?

Look at the typhoon that occurred in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Malawi with the thousands who lost their lives and others rendered homeless...that is the effect of climate change!

Why does this man hate us this much?

It will never be well with those who voted for buhari in Jesus name Amen...insha allahu, Amin
