The House of Representatives has given President Muhammadu Buhari 48 hours to address the nation over the spate of killings in the country.

This was part of the resolutions reached by lawmakers in the House when the matter came up during Thursday’s plenary.

They agreed that the President should address them and the nation regarding the attacks on communities in Benue, Zamfara, Kaduna, and other states where many people were killed and several others displaced.

Should the President fail to respond to the request, the lawmakers resolved to conclude with other Nigerians that he and his administration were incapable of permanently curtailing the incessant killing of innocent Nigerians.

They also agreed that the failure to address the nation would mean that the President and his administration have failed in their primary constitutional responsibility of ensuring the security and welfare of the citizens.

The House resolved to constitute an ad-hoc committee to interface with the Presidency regarding the request.

That is good move from the green chamber, you can take allegiance as a president, to protect your citizens and you are seeing them dying and u neglect them, to me that is not good.

I have never seen such a cool blooded president like Buhari, he has energy to talk when he is abroad, when he gets back home , he goes into hiding....His he possess...does he needs deliverance ...must they always remind him of his responsibility, his he afraid of Nigerian microphone.?......please I need answers

say NO to bias n tribalism

nice gesture.

And what would be the effect of his address of both army and police remain clueless.. I thought Apc said traditional leaders are behind the killings, why not arrest them?

If it was in other countries impeachment notice would have been served!

There are no killings in the North. Boko haram and other bloody terrorist have been defeated according to buhari in Dubai.

Like Boko haram, Karma is giving them a full dose of THEIR OWN MEDICINE.
