socialmediaman:I doubt you understand this piece. The senate has not had plenary session as it's on recess. It's just some senators that were interviewed that rejected the bill. Go read the emergency power that Hitler got. Every emergency power is defined. The one being sought after by PMB is on the economy. |

Its pathetic and total bad for a country like Nigeria.we are dysfuntional in reasoning because if we have a leader. Like Buhari and we call him a dictator!!! Its a shame. A man trying to fight corruption and we call him a diictator cause the National Assembly are just. Out there serving their pockets,now they are on summer and having continuos salaries and here we have a president that wants to revamp the economy through due process and we call it Dictatorship!!!. 1 Like |

ephi123:Did you read the bill , do you know why he needs and what for? Example, the government needs money from an agency, but to get that, it will take 6 month, buhari wants to get within a month to address the economy. I'm sure you agree the economy is bad and believe we should act fast, buhari wants to act fast. This is the reason aim of the bill. This emergency power is for certain agency, nafdac, UBEC, How does more power to address our economy a bad thing? anyway it's left for the NASS to grant or not.

OrlandoOwoh: Are you insinuating I mentioned anywhere that the house had already deliberated on this? The story clearly stated that the president will make that proposal once he gets back to office, didn't it? Maybe I'm thinking in line with the same senators who're apprehensive of the president's intentions here if that bill is proposed... And please it's very rude to tell someone to go read up something in a discussion like this, if you've read it, state how it didn't apply in this instance... 1 Like |

This bill must be passed by the national assembly. But before that, they must go into contract with the president that if the president should use this power to satisfy personal interest he shall face heavy sanction. |

Buhari seek more powers, maybe, to stop senate from stealling constituency allowances belonging to the masses of their constituencies. Panama papers senators. On the other hand abba kyari and mamman daura are the people asking for powers to preside over Nigeria and not buhari. My own is that buhari is in the cage of these two people and his larger familes. Lets see who will bail who, masses, buhari or his immediate family from the deadly strongholds of the evilmen? |

DropShot: Do you need to be told that the writer is a "STRANGE AGENT?".They are quick to ask for a very quick economic intervention,but each time a move is made towards achieving this,their hypocrisy resurface and they begin to condemn again. So how would Nigeria get better?. Is it by everyone complaining?? 1 Like |

lafuria1: Because Buhari is the first president we are having in Nigeria I guess The same president who spent 6 good months to select ministers has shown he is not someone who acts FAST in any way, we refuse to let wool be pulled over our faces. Se fini. |

saintkash: Hmmm. The NASS is a waste of space. It would seem they are trying to play the hard game by denying the FG what it needs to turn the economy around becuse from what I just read this are similar powers most world presidents like Cameron and Obama enjoy. How one can become a tyrant in pursuit of economic liberation of his country is beyond me. 2 Likes |

nkechiasogwa: You must be very new to nigerian politics because if I remembers right OBJ got rid Senate presidents and wrote the resignation letter for a party chairman and many governors who were put under scrutiny and pressure . EFCC were worse then too , going after political enemies This president has actually been most civil , if GEJ had his way he would have turned the NASS to his personal. |

Forwetinnah: Ignorance is a disease. Here are the highpoints for ignoramus like u. Come back and tell me how opposition will be fought with it Operation Resuscitate Nigerias Economy... Bullet Points: ● Abridge the procurement process to support stimulus spending on critical sectors of the economy ● Make orders to favour local contractors/suppliers in contract awards ● Abridge the process of sale or lease of government assets to generate revenue ● Allow virement of budgetary allocation to projects that are urgent, without going back to the National Assembly ● Amend certain laws, such as the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) Act, so that states that cannot access their cash trapped in the accounts of the commission because they cannot meet the counterpart funding, can do so ● Embark on radical reforms in visa issuance at Nigeria’s consular offices and on arrival in the country and to compel some agencies of government like the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), the National Agency for Foods Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and others to improve on their turn around operation time for the benefit of business. |

olutunde12:It means either your teachers taught you nonsense or you were a bad student. Senators can't reject a supposed bill not yet tabled to them. Opinions of a few senators cannot be used to read "senators reject...". Btw, I taught English for some years. |
