What happened in 8th Senate regrettable, Buhari tells Senators-elect
President Muhammadu Buhari, on hosting governors-elect and senators-elect of the All Progressives Congress on Monday, urged the party’s lawmakers to reflect the interest of Nigeria in their major decision in electing their leaders.
He said: “This is my fifth and last time of standing for an election – for that reason I ‘ll like to leave something behind.
“And what I want to leave behind cannot be successfully done without your support.
“So, that is why I’m appealing for your support. What happened in the last Senate and so on is regrettable because I still feel it shouldn’t take seven months to pass a budget. You have a very, very serious job ahead of you.
“So, what I’m appealing is that any major decision you are going to take please reflect more on the country than yourself as a person – what effect will it have on the country”.
