Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has said that the 8th Senate is committed to openness.

Saraki, who spoke while receiving the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Youth Forum (APYF) in his office as part of the celebration of this year’s International Youth Day, said the Senate had nothing to hide.

He said the e-parliament being planned by the Senate was meant to give voice to Nigerians, who will want to contribute to discussions on issues concerning the upper chamber of the legislature.
He told the APC youth body to disregard negative insinuations and speculations concerning the Senate as the lawmakers were committed to making a difference.

Saraki said: “I want to assure you, despite all what you read in the papers, be rest assured that we are here for serious business. We are all committed to make a difference and my doors are open. Very soon, from what I am being told from the Senate Committee on Rules and Business, we are trying to move fast about the e-parliament so that everybody here can know what we are doing and they can also contribute to some of the discussions.

“We want to make this place as open as possible. There is nothing here we are hiding. What is our great motivation? Nigerians spoke at the last elections and I don’t think they spoke for things to be the same and we must not let it be the same. We must ensure that it is positively different,” he said.

He added that the present administration is committed to carrying the youths along as against the use and dump syndrome of the past.
