President of the Senate , Ahmad Lawan , has warned that there could be anarchy if the Senate is scrapped as being clamoured by some Nigerians.
Rather, he challenged those who are not comfortable with the senators in the current 9th Senate to vote them out in 2023 if they don ’t like their faces .
Lawan stated this on Friday while declaring open , a retreat for top management staff of the National Assembly and National Assembly Service Commission in Abuja .
He described the Senate as a leveler which ensured that all parts of the country are equally represented unlike the House of Representatives where states with higher populations produce the highest number of lawmakers .
The Senate President also faulted the argument of those clamouring for the scrapping of the Senate because of the perceived jumbo pay being earned by the senators.

He said the annual budget of the National Assembly is less than one per cent of the nation’ s 2021 budget .
He said , “ Without the National Assembly and the legislature across the country , what you have is not democracy anymore .
“ So the value of the legislature and National Assembly to Nigerians is democracy . If you take out the legislature, it might not be a dictatorship but certainly not a democracy.
“ So when we always debate on jumbo pay and not the functions of the National Assembly – what we are able to do and what we are not able to do.
“ Ask for what you think we should be doing rather than saying close down the Senate or the National Assembly. Do you understand the implications of what would happen if we close the senate? I am not saying because I am in the Senate .
“ The Senate is a leveller because in the House of Representatives, population is major – that is why some states will have five , six members and others have up to 20.
“ So if you say close down the Senate, there will be a day when people will cry foul .
” In the Senate , what Kano produces is what Bayelsa will produce. Three senators in Kano and three senators in Bayelsa, so that stabilises the system.
“ In a budget of N13 trillion the National Assembly will get about N 125bn to N 128bn . That is less than 1 percent . So where is the remaining 99 percent .

Our vote don begin count again? cuz dey last time I check na dey highest rigger dey win

Rubber stamp speaking with confidence, knowing that vote does not count in Nigeria !

Lol, taunting us?
You have the elections already rigged and you are there like a Chinese panda trying your best to poke fun at the populace? This Lawan is a grave danger to this democracy but he seldom gets called out for his crimes. He has passed every single atrocious bill presented to him by Buhari and the gang! Every single one! In doing so, he has insulted senators, harassed senators, shouted down senators, cut off their mics and generally defended evil. When ever the calamitous history of this evil regime is written, this man's name should always be on the front page!

Someone should tell them that the jumbo pay is why we don't like their faces. New faces will also become currupt with jumbo pay.

Will you allow our votes count


Something that's INEC has already drafted the winners and losers of 2023 elections.

CLOWNS

I’m tired of black men. Always at the bottom of the barrel and they have no shame. You will see them suffer all manners of indignity just to get to other developed countries built by other races of men eg dying in theMediterranean, being sold as slaves in Libya etc, while the other races of men mock them. Gosh, I’m so ashamed of the black man.
