I Am Sorry, Buhari Apologises To Senate - Vanguard by Elose11(m): 3:31pm On Jul 01, 2016 |
ABUJA- PRESIDENT
Muhammadu Buhari Friday
tendered an unreserved
apology to the Senate over
statements by his Special
Assistant to President
Muhammadu Buhari on
Prosecution, Okoi Obono-
Oblo that the Senate lacked
the powers to summon
Attorney-General of the
Federation (AGF) and
Minister of Justice, Mr.
Abubakar Malami to explain
why he dragged the Senate
President, Bukola Saraki,
Deputy Senate President,
Ike Ekweremadu and two
others to court over alleged
forgery of the Senate
Standing Order.
President Buhari faulted the
position of the the AGF,
stressing that as an
appointee of the President,
he was equally answerable
to the Senate, just as he
said that the statement
ought not to have been
made in the first place.
It would be recalled that the
AGF, for the second time on
Thursday, shunned the
summon of Senate to
explain why he dragged the
Senate President, Bukola
Saraki, Deputy Senate
President, Ike Ekweremadu
and two others to court over
alleged forgery of the
Senate Standing Order.
Buhari's Special Assistant on
Public Prosecution, Okoi
Obono-Oblo and in the office
of the AGF who appeared
before the Senator David
Umaru, APC Niger East led
Senate Committee on
Judiciary, Human Rights and
Legal Matters had
lampooned the Senate,
saying that the red
chambers lacked the powers
to summon the Minister of
Justice over a matter that
was already in a competent
court of law.
President Buhari spoke
through his Special Assistant
on National Assembly
Matters (Senate), Senator
Ita Enang.
Addressing Journalists,
barely twenty- four hours
after the Presidential aide
took a swipe at the Senate
that the Presidency had no
confidence on the Senate
Committee on Judiciary,
Human Rights and Legal
Matters, Senator Enang said
that there was no way the
Attorney General of the
federation and Minister of
Justice will not respect the
Senators because the
lawmakers screened and
cleared the ministers as
ministerial nominees. 1 Like 1 Share |

Apology is ok but the forgery trial is a challenge to the principle of Separation of powers and legislative independence and should be dropped by the attorney general. Then will the apology be complete.Sai baba, no allow bad aids and advisers spoil your neutrality in the um pass at the red chamber. |
