Should Only Lawyers Occupy Legislative Posts In The Country? by DarePeters(m): 2:38pm On Dec 05, 2014 |
This issue I believe have been a debatable one among pple due to different views.The Legislature being an arm of the govt saddled with the responsibility of making laws performs an important role as the laws they passed after being assented affects all citizens. So powerful are they that laws can be passed even if the bill wasn't assented by the executive (president).All that is needed to be done is another two third vote of the law makers and the bill automatically becomes a law (I stand to be corrected).For an arm of govt as strong as this, most have argued that those who should occupy the posts are those grounded in the learning of the law and not lay men to avoid making and enacting of unjust and unnecessary laws while some have argued otherwise.Let's share our views on this. |
