Saraki should just keep quiet, he's one of the godfather of corruption in Nigeria.

igbozionism:
see the crux of the matter is that we should be neutral. buhari and saraki are both corrupt and I don't think it is wise if we start supporting the executive because we love buhari. the senate has the right to confirm or reject magu and summon anybody the deem not performing well, they are simply doing their constitutional duties and don't need to be suppressed by the executive using influenced public opinion.

besides both saraki and buhari na APC

The Senate has the right to abide by the rules of the Constitution.

Saraki or Seriki lacks the morals to speak on this. When news about him and the other child-senator from Kogi were making the rounds in the public sphere. He didnt deem it fit to speak on the matter to clear the air. The best he could do was to antagonize senator Ali Ndume who summoned the courage to inquire about the news. Does his actions towards Sen. Ali Ndume portrays well of our democracy?

Let him go and bury his face somewhere. He lacks the merit to comment on this . What a misplaced priority!

Your god, the Otuoke Drunk aka INEFFECTUAL BUFFOON surely knows about that money. The man is as useless as fart.

The Constitution empowers the NASS to make laws binding on every citizen. The EFCC is not one of the statutory bodies listed in the Constitution but it has got an establishment Act enacted by the NASS. You don't get to cherry pick which sections to obey or not to obey. If u do that then u question the powers of the NASS to make laws and the validity of the existence of the EFCC itself. The same Act empowers the President to appoint d Chairman subject to the confirmation of the Senate. Why accept the power of the president and deny that of the Senate?

The Constitution is the grundnorm of all other laws but does not contain every law or directive.

Finally! A post full of sense

You're way more intelligent than (light years ahead of) BMC, Zombies and all APC politicians combined.. Jeeez!

This man should go and sit down, are they not the ones trying to derail the corruption fight of this present administration and he's saying that they are strengthening institutions, why have they not confirm Magu has the efcc chairman, he does not have any meaningful thing to say..

Fart is very important. Go and ask your doctor

Show us where it is written in the constitution that the senate must confirm the chairman of effcc?. It's only in the EFCC Act and not in the constitution. And when such clash occurs btw the constitution and any other Act, the constitution reigns supreme.

Sorry to inform you, in my books, PMB is not corrupt. If you have facts, bring them forth and not the lies being propagated by your pained PDP losers.

I have heard and seen many say the bold, but it is not TRUE.

The constitution is a body of laws, and the business of law making is a continuous one.
The constitution is not self sufficient, therefore undergo the process of amendment to capture new realities, and if need be, new measures are introduced in the form of Acts.

Acts go through the constitutional legislative procedures before they take effect, and as such, are laws themselves. Acts don't conflict with the constitution because they flow from the constitution, and are rooted in the constitution.
In a case where they do, the Judiciary through the power of Judicial Review can declare them ultra vires, therefore becomes null & void.

For example, the Act establishing the EFCC is in that manner because the constitution gives the Legislature (National Assembly) the power to give approval to major Executive appointments. It is that simple.
Therefore, asking where in the constitution it is written that NASS give approval to confirm the EFCC chair, for me is a none question and an attempt to create a tsunami in a tea cup.

It will interest you to know that the President drew the power to appoint the EFCC chair, from the EFCC Act. Now the Act is good to appoint and not good enough to confirm?

Here is a simple logic in the form of a question.
How possible is it for the constitution to have captured this EFCC question when the EFCC was not in existence when the constitution was drafted?
I believe the answer is not that difficult to decipher. If you do correctly, you will understand that the EFCC Act only filled a vacuum which was as a result of our national need at the time of establishing the EFCC.
This follows that the constitution and the Act are not in conflict. The latter only flowed from the former.

Personally, I think our VP professor is just trying to bend the truth to favour their own end of the balance of power arrangement.

Exactly what I tried to explain to some of us here.
