Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki has expressed the readiness of Nigeria Senate to screen with utmost despatch ministerial nominees that would be sent to it by President Muhammadu Buhari.

He gave this assurance on Tuesday in his office when French Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Denys Gaver paid him a courtesy visit in his office.

He said though the Upper and Lower legislative chambers were on recess, the Senate would ensure that the recess was suspended as a matter urgent national importance for purposes of ministerial screening if need be.


Saraki noted that “this is to ensure that the suspension of plenary does not disturb serious government business, like the screening of ministers”.

Disclosing the cooperation of National Assembly with the executive arm in fulfilling its promises to Nigerians, the Senate President said there was no limit to what the legislature could do to make sure that the current administration run a smooth tenure for the prosperity of the nation.

Thus, the legislature is ready to treat executive bills with all sense of seriousness it deserves, he further stated.

He noted that the Senate had since commenced work by the setting up of 18-man Committee to formulate a realistic and progressive legislative agenda, which he said would address issues like poverty alleviation, law enforcement, security, commercial disputes, eradication of corruption and investments in the Petroleum sector.
The French Envoy on his part described the crisis rocking the National Assembly as normal and which would at the end of the day produce a viable democracy.
On security matters, Gaver said it would soon be over, while stressing that Nigeria cannot afford to fail because of high expectations of other nations.

The more i see this Man's picture the more upset i get.

Born into wealth, ivy style schools educated, a British Citizen,pampered all his life,never worked like any of us in his life,anointed to be a Governor by his Dad,ran a Bank aground,and now feels it is his right by BIRTH to be the Senate President.

How can somebody from his background knows what other Nigerians are going through?how can he change our live's as the Senate President when from birth he has never been like us? and so the UNOFFICIAL Monarchy of Kwara State continues the circle of looting and bringing Nigeria to the Ground like he did Societe General Bank.

In a Sane Society this man should be in Jail, and not be the Senate President.

But again who voted him in? Kwaran's who have an identity crisis and don't know if they are Yoruba's or Hausa's. And the other Senators who felt this crazy power drunk man is fit to lead them.

Buhari do the needful, and send your foot Soldiers after this man in the Senate. The Federal Republic of Nigeria is a democratic Country,and not a Monarchy run one.

How can we trade one BIG thief like David Mark to a BIGGER thief like Saraki?

Why is President Buhari scared of appointing ministers? We really need ministers to move this country forward, oga one chance don kill us

Why can't the permanent secretaries fill in for the mean time? Nigerians and frivolities sef.

Here we go, Senate President already kissing @ss!

The legislature is not designed to be the appendage of the Executive, rather the auditor of the Presidency!

Saraki is so consumed by his ambition that he fails to notice how bad of a trip he has become.

The runnings Saraki did in his life to maintain his hold on government of Kwara state and stay relevant and influential in Federal Government . The runnings Saraki did to out manouvre the political dexterity of Jagaban of Borgu , Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu .... I don't think you would ever had such hustle in your life.......

These politicians hustle no be small and in this era of change, it may be more than for their own pocket. Everybody has responsibilities to do both the citizen and the government.

as for your hatings, I would advise you to stop hating because it is not good for your health ......

Imagine you secreting black blood into your blood stream for the next 4 years because you will keep seeing Saraki everyday for the next 4 years then verily HBP and hypertension may ensue and Saraki will still keep ruling

Kwara do not have Identity issue :

Kwara South and Kwara Central is dominated by Yorubas and minute Hausa community
Kwara North is occupied by Nupes where boundary is shared with Niger state

There is no identity crisis whatsoever ...

We are ready to throw chairs and tear clothes if the ministerial list is belated like the One APC chairman sent - Saraki

should in case
There is need to fast track the confirmation of ministerial nominees despite that, Due care and Diligence should also take precedence so as not to overlook what the executive would not considered significant and May be important to the people of Nigeria.

Infact Saraki is even more popular now than the president of this Country. Saraki baba abeg help me reject one woman wen say she no be politician in case you see her name . Thanks in advance.
