.DrAhmadLawan: MBuhari never asked n’assembly for anything that wasn’t in national interest | TheCable
Lawan spoke on Monday at a state banquet held in honour of Buhari in Yobe. The president is on a two-day official visit to the state.
The ninth assembly has also been criticised by the opposition for being an extension of the presidency.Commenting on the criticism, the senate president said Buhari has left the national assembly to always do what is best for the country. “You believe we should do what is best for our country. When I said that we will continue to work with the executive arm of government, ensuring that the national interest is always our guide and focus, our opposition took me out of context.“Some of them started writing that we are rubber stamps, that whatever is brought to the national assembly will be approved.
The senate president said Buhari should consider the establishment of a Gum Arabic Research Institute in Yobe and deploy resources to develop the livestock industry before he leaves office.
