Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) had requested the Clerk of the National Assembly, Mohammed Sani-Omolori, to retrieve the official vehicle identification plates from about 69 senators and 151 members of the House of Representatives who failed to return to the 9th National Assembly.

The FRSC Public Education Officer, Corps Commander, Bisi Kareem,said in a statement that :
“We have written to the clerk of the National Assembly to direct former lawmakers to return official number plates issued to them. We expect the clerk to reach out to them; we cannot get across to them ourselves, that was why we wrote to the National Assembly about it.”

Forty-two of the senators lost out in October last year at their parties’ primaries while twenty-seven others were defeated at the National Assembly elections.

Apart from former Senate President Bukola Saraki of PDP, Kwara Central, others expected to return their official vehicle number plates are Godswill Akpabio of APC , Akwa Ibom West; Nazif Gamawa of PDP, Bauchi; Rafiu Ibrahim of PDP, Kwara South; Tayo Alasoadura of APC, Ondo Central and Yele Omogunwa of PDP, Ondo South, among others.

When asked about the deadline for the return of the plates and sanctions for failure, Kazeem said he would not speak on that.

Findings have, however, showns that many former lawmakers and ex-officials were still using the official number plates.

The immediate past senator who represented Oyo South Senatorial District in the Eight Senate, Adesoji Akanbi, said the senators who were not returning to the National Assembly, were expected to return the number plates.

He said:
“The number plates have an expiry date, hence there is no basis for holding on to it after June 2019 because those who issued it said it’s between 2015 and 2019.

“Although some may just remove it and throw it away for record purposes, it is better to return it to the National Assembly management which distributed them to us."

APC wicked o!

Dem sha won strip Saraki completely

Very soon, they will tell him to return Federal Government undies in his possession

Nigeria is really a country without structures and functioning systems. FRSC doesn't need to write to them to return number plates. At most 48hours after leaving any position,all properties assigned to that office should have been returned. It should even be an offence to hold unto properties of an office they don't hold. This is what happens in civilised societies.

Not so bad.

Losing out politically is not end of life.

Buhari failed thrice to return to power since 1984 (when he was sidelined) by IBB

By the time NFIU finishes with the local government account matters, a lot of people would prefer running business than politics.

At least to avoid avoidable troubles, APC will want to get back at him now that he's whichever means, especially now that he's out of political reckoning.

APC members right now

where is secondus, pls that man needs regular check up, his silence is questionable, my own concern is that sniper has turn to fanta now in 9ja and suicide is common in 9ja... i'm just a pdp supporter b4 you quote me

Imagine a national parastatal - FRSC saying they can’t reach them?

When their is no national database, how can a whole country not have an ID system, no central database for citizens real time information.

This country will never progress until we get this aspect right, until we have a unique ID system for all citizens and a central database that could be accessed by necessary government agent.

It’s only after doing so that vices like crime will reduce, payment of taxes will be prompt and there will be check and balances.

Imagine a secondary school kid that knew after committing crime, the crime will be in his record for life. Even graduating with 1st Class from the university might still not reposition his life because all companies will be mandated by law to do a background check on all applicant, will our youth commit crimes?

Until their is a system that provides check and balances to guarantee repercussion for actions, there is no hope!

That is the right thing to do...

Is well

What has APC got to do with FRSC, an independent govt institution doing its job?

Why did they not return the said plate numbers that were issued to them as members of the national assembly?

Is is right of them to be using plate numbers as if they were members of the national assembly they are not?

Which is very normal, but some people's reaction here tells you how warped our collective reasoning is

Y r dey telling us . The last time I checked , Saraki is not the first formal Senate president and obviously, he won't be the last ... It's right time our government agencies get matured in executing their duties

I used to think that once one is a senator, he remains a senator just like permanent secretaries. Somebody please educate me on this.

l concur, that is why I have place Aso Rock, NNPC, CBN and national assembly online for sale, l want China to buy them from me for 500 billion naira and I will use the money to drink beer and eat fried goat meat, useless politicians feeding fat while the masses are suffering from hunger and starvation daily

This is making headline because of Saraki that’s one, and what’s the fuss about Plate numbers, All official cars bears office of the senate president plate, he must have returned the car for the use of the new senate president besides other lawmakers after returning the plates numbers could request for a official plate or diplomatic plate as far they are going to pay for it and be responsible for what ever comes with it.
