How I will relate with Buhari if elected Senate President – Lawan

Nigeria Headlines News

Nigeria Latest News, Nigeria Headlines

A lawmaker, Ahmed Lawan, has promised to maintain a cordial relationship between the legislature and the executive if elected president of the ninth Senate.The lawmaker, who is the preferred candidate of the All progressive congress for the position, said he believes an unhealthy relationship between the two arms of government will only make the country suffer more.

“I don’t belong to the school of thought of encouraging fighting between the two arms of government. I can tell you I was in opposition for 16 years from 1999 to 2015. I argued and opposed positions that I felt was supposed to be opposed. But I knew the limits of my opposition when the issues before us were issues that would make life better for Nigerians.

He also vowed to do the bidding of majority of senators on any issue brought before the upper legislative chamber for consideration. “My support for the president must not be misconstrued as going to make the National Assembly a rubberstamp assembly. I supported previous administration that was PDP on issues that I felt was in the national interest and I opposed vehemently those issues that should not be supported.
