The Senate is planning an “exhaustive and comprehensive debate” on the economy, and will hold its managers accountable, senate president, Bukola Saraki, said on Tuesday.

But that will be done in “a manner that is transparent and beneficial to the country”, he said.

Mr. Saraki said he was aware Nigerians were really suffering, but told journalists in Ilorin the major preoccupation of the Senate upon resumption in September 20, would be on finding solutions to the economic recession.

“We are going to have an exhaustive and comprehensive debate on fixing the country’s economy when we resume next week,” he said.

“Already, all the economic priority bills are being analysed and collated so that we can hit the ground running when we resume. We understand the pains that Nigerians are going through and we do not take this for granted.

“Additionally, the Senate intends to invite everybody involved in the management of the economy to address the Nigerian people through the parliament on the steps that are being taken to get us out of this mess,” he said.

He said, “We fully intend to hold all those involved in the economic management of the country accountable.

“However, we will do so in a manner that is transparent and beneficial to the country as a whole.”

Mr. Saraki said it was important for the parliament to start asking questions that will lead to plausible solutions.

“We need to ascertain our actual level of borrowing and what effect the devaluation of
the naira has had on our economy.

“In every crisis, there is always an opportunity for positive reforms, in this regard, in order to solve this crisis, all hands must be on deck.

“Ideas should be sourced from all quarters, all arms of government, people of different political beliefs, from all socio-economic backgrounds and every part of Nigeria must work together at this time,” Mr. Saraki said.

Mr. Saraki harped on the need for Nigeria to rally its best economic minds both from within the country and in the Diaspora in order to tackle the economic recession.

“This recession does not identify with any one party, we need to tap into the expertise of our best economic minds to come up with plans that both the executive and the legislature can evaluate and implement”, he said. (NAN)

A major in the Biafran Army? Nd u call that an achievement?
Chai!!!! It must really be hard for ur family if this is what u call achievement.
Who even recognise that anyway? Even Ojukwu was a NIGERIA general.
Well, if ur only goal is to measure up to ur father's major status in the Biafran army, then u ve nothing to live for again cos there's no such army in the world.
Na people like u will spend countless hours just to register in the N POWER projects. Incase u've forgotten, Adeosun is among the teams.
Get something to live for. DREAM BIG, AIM HIGH. Nt some invincible army rank.

Every politics is local my boy. I'd Rather have my father colleagues as model than you who spends time daily on Nairaland looking for crumbs defending Hausa Fulanis who lay waste to the plains of benue your hometown.



Imagine an Idoma boy dey give me voice

..I think Saraki's statement is more of a political rhetoric in an attempt to claw himself back to relevance.
Yes I agree that economic hard times are here but I'd ask what the Senate has done on its own part to improve the lot of Nigerians, when we still do not know how much of the national cake they cream off yearly.
If charity must begin at home as they say then those who come to equity must have clean hands.

The Senate should just stop all this shameful charade as they are also accomplice in the present mess Nigeria have found itself.Were they not the ones who certified all these useless persons to serve as our major economic players? Ndi oshi.

Bujumbura:

you are a dead meat for that sensible statement. Watch wailers destroy u with insensible mentions and kindergarten assertions

The senate is just a gathering of buffoons who had no sense. Whatsoever.

Why won't Nigeria be in recession? Why shldnt we? What is our main product for foreign exchange?

It's simple mathematics for the sensible ones..

If you take out of your money to buy what you have within, you are strengthening the seller and weakening yourself. But when you also produce what u can sell, you will add to your savings and become rich..

Forcing manufacturers to look within will further enrich the citizens instead of making them poorer. When u import, u enrich the foreigner and u sell to a depleted economy after production. When u source within, u enrich the economy and will sell cheaper to the citizens.

The reason why prices are on the roof is because manufacturers are still forcefully importing instead of looking within.

China and India didn't yank themselves from the grip of the Western world buy going back on their policies even when they once ranked as one of the poorest countries in the world, decades ago.


Nigeria will remain poor if someone doesn't take drastic action!

God help PMB!!!

I a proud zombie!

If u dnt like it, you can....

Absolutely on point. Wish we can have more Nigerians thinking like this.

An idoma man has an opinion in ur affairs? Talk of a tribal bigot full of hate.
If ur greatest achievement is to be like ur father (an unrecognised Biafran major), it will be right to say that what u do nw is just to keep body nd soul together. So what rubber do u sell?
Women shoes nd slippers, normal slippers, tyres or plain plastic (that u are mistaking as rubber).
U re just a surviver nd here u are rubbishing a minister of finance.
Thinking of he who the gods give a head, they forgot to give him a thinking cap.

U Need help ASAP
