The Nigeria senate president, Dr. Bukola Saraki would be leading senators to the residence of his deputy, Dr. Ike Ekweremmadu whose house was laid siege by the Nigeria Police Force since 6: am.

Members of the House of Representatives are currently collating a list of members that will possibly leave Nigeria’s ruling party, APC.
Razak Atunwa, Ali Madaki and Abdulsamad Dasuki, all elected under the platform of APC, are spearheading the move.
Sources among the defecting lawmakers told PREMIUM TIMES there are about 100 names on the list. This could not be independently confirmed.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, is expected to make the announcement of the defections before the end of plenary on Tuesday.
Fifteen senators earlier defected from the APC.
The House plenary was ongoing at the time of this report.

The Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki has regained freedom and has taken charge at the Senate. Saraki was earlier this morning barricaded by the police from leaving his house under the orders of the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Ibrahim Idris.

More ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) have refused to submit their accounts for review since President Muhammadu Buhari assumed office, an official report shows.

The poor compliance of MDAs to Nigerian laws on submission of accounts is worse in each of Mr Buhari’s first two years in office than any previous year since Nigeria returned to democracy from military dictatorship in 1999.

According to the Auditor-General of the Federation, 324 MDAs failed to submit their accounts for audit in 2016, while 215 MDAs failed to submit in 2015. In each of the 22 previous years before that, the highest number of non-submissions was 148, in 2014.

Although he did not list the defaulting agencies in 2016, the Auditor-General, Anthony Ayine, worried about the situation, stated in the 2016 audit report that “The extensive violation of statutory financial reporting obligations by Parastatals is of great concern.”

Mr Ayine’s remarks were contained in the recently released annual report of the Auditor-General for the Federation on the accounts of the Federation of Nigeria for the year ended December 2016.

The 2016 audit report is the latest by Mr Ayine’s office and was released last month.
