While urging the legislature to reconsider its position on his proposal, Buhari made it clear that he had no intention to circumvent the NASS’ powers to interrogate the process.
”I have no intention to fetter the right of the National Assembly to interrogate the composition of this balance, which can still be done even after granting the requested approval.
