Senators Reject Buhari’s Emergency Powers Bill, Say It’ll Turn Him Into A Tyrant by Elose11(m): 6:15am On Aug 23, 2016 |
The move by President Muhammadu Buhari to secure emergency powers aimed at addressing the nation’s economic crisis may not see the light of the day, as senators yesterday rejected the proposed bill, saying Buhari was seeking to transform himself into a tyrant and would foist a dictatorship on the nation. http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/08/23/senators-reject-buharis-emergency-powers-bill-say-itll-turn-him-into-a-tyrant/ 3 Likes 2 Shares

Hitler was elected by the people of Germany. He also sought the same powers from the assembly and they gave it to him, oblivious. The first thing he did with the powers was to suspend the assembly. Sounds familiar? I'm only saying... Mr President could use the power and suspend the assembly and constitution out of 'the need' to save Nigeria money. Completely unacceptable, Nigeria doesn't need another dictator. That bill is dead on arrival The house of assembly has majority APC leadership, I don't see why he can't work with them to implement his planned stimulus packages 140 Likes 8 Shares |

Wrong, sensational and misleading headline. Journalism in Nigeria is very junk. How can personal opinion of a few senators outside the senate in session be made to look like the body of senators has officially rejected a bill not yet tabled at the senate? 102 Likes 5 Shares |

if wat I read here is wat is in the emergency bill then I see no reason why the National Assembly will be against it or how it will make PMB a dictator. Cahmegga 70 Likes 4 Shares |

Good. My fear is not about granting him that power he seeks, it is the fact that this man is not known to keep his words. He might just need it to turn himself to an overlord and recklessly abuse that power while the NASS and the masses watch on helplessly. Even during his military reign, he never kept his sugar coated promises. How then will he start now to keep promises when he has even gotten worse than he was then. 52 Likes 5 Shares

I support that this bill be passed into law as soon as possible before and that the house should stop deceiving us and themselves. . Buhari is already a tyrant and the earliest they grant him his tyrannical powers the better, to see if he could scuffle the remaining big wigs feathers to achieve even if it's just one out of his numerous campaign promises.. 8 Likes |

You don't give sweeping power of any kind to a madman.. Yes Buhari is a madman and giving him that power is a suicide mission for our country's democracy. After giving him sweeping economic power, he will seek for sweeping security power to fight insecurity and when that happens, then it's safe to say bye bye to our democracy.. That's how tyrant rulars start.. Buhari must abide by our extant laws in all his dealings, if he can't do that, then he should step aside. 49 Likes 7 Shares |

A Country of thieving leaders who are still hellbent on stealing without being put in check. I can wager these SINators are not really interested in quashing the impending bill to save Nigerians but strictly for their own rapacious attitudes for public funds. I can only laugh in the unfolding weeks. 8 Likes 2 Shares |
