Let them point to any human capital development project they have executed? Have they made any law to tackle the insecurity that was rejected by the President? They want to change the narrative?

blacknp:Let me school you dunce. The national assembly is the representative of all Nigerians since all the constituents are dully represented by a senator and house of reps member. since we are in a democracy the president is answerable to all Nigerians irrespective of region, party or social status since he was elected by same Nigerians. if the national assembly summons the president what it simply means is that Nigerians summoned him. if he fails to appear then Nigerians through the national assembly can impeach him. put this in your blocked skull |

Na all these "interpretation of the law" na im lawyers dey take chop. One law with thousands of interpretations. Now judging from what I read up there ( I no be people wey dey comment without reading), even Ozekhome is in agreement that the National Assembly doesn't have constitutional rights to SUMMON the president but it can INVITE the president and the president MAY honour the invitation if he so wishes. We learn everyday. I have always assumed that the National Assembly has the powers to SUMMON and QUERY the president. However, for the sake of the doctrine of necessity, I think the president should honour the invitation. Unless there is a political undertone that presidency and the party he represnts are reading from the invitation after all it's the lower chamber. Make small boys no come begin insult their papa mate because of say we dey do politics. |

Fahdiga1:The Bible says study to find yourself approved, not just follow follow, go and read section 88 & 89 of The Constitution that the pdp Mumu Okezhome quoted yourself, nowhere in those sections it says the President can be summoned, summoned in accordance with section 62, were the prerequisites of section 62 fulfilled? 88. (1) Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, each House of the National Assembly shall have power by resolution published in its journal or in the Official Gazette of the Government of the Federation to direct or cause to be directed investigation into - (a) any matter or thing with respect to which it has power to make laws, and (b) the conduct of affairs of any person, authority, ministry or government department charged, or intended to be charged, with the duty of or responsibility for - (i) executing or administering laws enacted by National Assembly, and (ii) disbursing or administering moneys appropriated or to be appropriated by the National Assembly. (2) The powers conferred on the National Assembly under the provisions of this section are exercisable only for the purpose of enabling it to – (a) make laws with respect to any matter within its legislative competence and correct any defects in existing laws; and (b) expose corruption, inefficiency or waste in the execution or administration of laws within its legislative competence and in the disbursement or administration of funds appropriated by it. 89. (1) For the purposes of any investigation under section 88 of this Constitutional and subject to the provisions thereof, the Senate or the House of Representatives or a committee appointed in accordance with section 62 of this Constitution shall have power to - (a) procure all such evidence, written or oral, direct or circumstantial, as it may think necessary or desirable, and examine all persons as witnesses whose evidence may be material or relevant to the subject matter; (b) require such evidence to be given on oath; (c) summon any person in Nigeria to give evidence at any place or produce any document or other thing in his possession or under his control, and examine him as a witness and require him to produce any document or other thing in his possession or under his control, subject to all just exceptions; and (d) issue a warrant to compel the attendance of any person who, after having been summoned to attend, fails, refuses or neglects to do so and does not excuse such failure, refusal or neglect to the satisfaction of the House or the committee in question, and order him to pay all costs which may have been occasioned in compelling his attendance or by reason of his failure, refusal or neglect to obey the summons, and also to impose such fine as may be prescribed for any such failure, refused or neglect; and any fine so imposed shall be recoverable in the same manner as a fine imposed by a court of law. (2) A summons or warrant issued under this section may be served or executed by any member of the Nigeria Police Force or by any person authorised in that behalf by the President of the Senate or the Speaker of the House of Representatives, as the case may require. 1 Like 1 Share |
