Ninth National Assembly One Of The Most Productive, Says Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has described the Ninth National Assembly led by Senate President, Ahmad Lawan and House of Representatives Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila as one of the most productive in terms of output and outcome.
The President stated this at the inauguration of the permanent site of the National Institute for Legislative and Democratic Studies in Abuja, where he thanked the leadership of the National Assembly for their support.
Emphasizing the importance of the legislature in a democracy, President Buhari stated that he refrained from meddling in the affairs of the legislature to encourage an independent National Assembly.
While noting that Nigeria is endowed in many ways, the President pointed out that the country’s teeming youth population remains one of its greatest assets.
He added that the NILDS permanent site is a critical step towards fostering the capacity of the legislature to improve its lawmaking, oversight and presentation functions.
