They should fix Nigeria first before trying to bare crossdressing

Joblessness of the highest order!!!! There are so many issues confronting this Nation that requires urgent attention like HIKE IN FOOD PRICE,DSTV SUBSCRUOTUON,POOR ELECTRICITT SUPPLY, INSECURITY,HIGH PRICE OF COOKING GAS,STRIKES AND OTHERS.These are things that requires attention

Let us also seek prohibition of wearing àgbàda to offices

Nice one

Is this our problem now

Confused set of people..

Crossdressing , I laugh in Greek , no more work to do again

Just imaging!! while people are there restless having sleepless night displace from there own Ancestral home you are there discussing trash who cross dressing help

I guess it's time for brobriski to relocate and get a proper 9 to 5 job. Throw those wigs away. You can be plaiting hair if u feel attached to the female folks.

They need total rehabilitation 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Of course cross dressers hide ak47 under their dress. this is a real problem!

Misplaced priority no wonder that country keep going backwards instead of making progress because you have bunch of fools in the name of honourable

Supported.... But they are not the problems of Nigeria.... This people should think of something reasonable to do

Na wuna major problem be this? As much as I don't promote crossdressing but humans should learn to remove the ant in the private part not the rat that runs in the house!!!

they should close the house and go home, they are not useful to nigerians,No useful laws to help the common man

Nigeria is so unfortunate in her styles of leaders selection. The country is hot 🔥as fire, terrorism is the other of the day, education heading towards the grave and they are talking about crossdress. Only God can help us, this people are worst than natural disasters.

This is a disaster in our government. Dealing with what's nonessential, leaving the things that matter. A cancer that need uprooting

How is it going to affect the economy of the country? misplaced priority 😒😒

Awon were

Make una tackle the real thing and stop all this shits, we like cross dressing , it’s a way of entrepreneurship since you people doesn’t have anything to discuss in the house. Make I give una topic,, end BANDITRY , discuss it in ur next sitting

Is getting out of hands they should make it 6years

The lawmaker should move to ban nylon, this nylon is taking our money and making our business go down. The worst part is that nylon is not recycled

Those boys need to wear police uniform and not female dress. We lack more police officers.

In as much as I don't support crossdressing. Our lawmakers should prioritize needs from wants. We have insecurity bedeviling the nation,poor market price control, unemployment, poor renumeration and educational systems.

Is that what they think is Nigeria problem

God!!! We truly need help in this nation, so what these lawmakers are being paid for is to sit and discuss crossdressing, when insecurity is killing the nation. Oluwa ooooo ( WHO DO US)

Una as a news station is dis news that will change the country security problem

This government sef tueh!!! So people cannot be themselves

I redeemed all types of gift card from different countries. WhatsApp number: 07025548746. WhatsApp video call is allowed for anyone who wishes to trade with me. God bless us all!

Is that the problem at the moment ? Meanwhile lots of this people sleep with this crossdresser’s. Who’s really fooling who in this country. Your house is on fire and you are chasing after Rats.

That's good motion by the house may the almighty fulfill you wish.

Better let them address issues bitting the general populist and the country as a whole and leave the crossdressers now ejo towa ni iwaju Olorun ju ejo oni cigar lo

Over 300+ people seating to discuss crossdressing when people are being killed everyday? Country bleeding? Shame on all of you

Probably not our biggest problem now but should it be overlooked because is not 🤨the trend of cross dressers are sending wrong messages to kids growing up.. is now looked upon as a sort of career or occupation 😒

Are u guys for real?

When people lack idea, this is the kind of things they pursue. More than 150 millions lifes is under serious threat and daily extermination, yet it is dressing that borders the their Rep. Not at this time people. Make una get small shame

Maybe dem no gree fuck one of the house members na wetin prompted to this...house of rubb*** wereh set of people

Ndi ara

Is that the problem that Nigeria is facing presently? This old men for real don't have anything to offer anymore. Bunch of dead brains.

This country honestly only God knows where it is heading to bayi

This government is really confused. Well it's a good idea but this is not the major problem we are facing right now.

This is very good.

Pure distraction...how has cross dressing been the problem ravaging the z*oo called NIGERIA

Terrorists are about to overrun the military capital of Nigeria, and this is what they are worried about?

So does that mean girls can't wear trousers and shirt 🙆🏽‍♂️

The House of representatives should seek to prohibit incompetent administrations first

What is their business there? Instead of finding solutions to insecurity . Mad people every where!!!

This is good but a misplaced priority

I so second.

Nigerians have done a lot of mistakes by choosen non-entity moron old cargo fellow who don't know right from left into house of rep, moreover there's no need of house of rep in this country bcuz this psychopaths are just wasting our resources for their selfish interest.

Is that the most important issue or the problem with our country today? We are faced with rampant insecurity and cross dressing is the issue that they want to face. 😭

At of all the problems faceing the country is crossdressing they're talking about how that consider them now when they is full insecurities in the country

You will never here lawmakers seeks end to asuu strike or end to insecurity or end to inflation na cross dressing wen dem nor even be problem at all. We are doom we just av useless people in office😪 they are only there for d money

i strongly support that. is crazy

I should think that this issue is the least of our problems at the moment. For goodness sakes, our security systems and economic situation is apparently collapsed with no obvious solution at sight!!!

Is this really a pressing issue

These old men are very funny.

Crossdressing is the root cause of Nigeria's problems. It must be stopped..... Bunch of jokers.

Crossdresser should turn to bandit, terrorist and kidnapper that is where they will be safe

Problem way una suppose face una go leave that one Dey face wetin nor get head

As if the security and economic situations are not enough to handle. A poor workman battles with his tools instead of the job. Let’s face it our legislators from the leadership down are just plain useless. A bunch of thieving idiots I might add.

Honourable Muda Lawal Ulnar should be recalled by his constituents. We need to stop sending people into the house who cause distractions from the issues that are important.

SMH...why is it that these lawmakers don't have anything reasonable to deliberate on What businesses do they have with dressing. Is that the problem of the country now? Nonsense

That lawmaker must be ignorant. How come in the midst of serious nonsense happening in Nigeria now, the only thing bothering him is crossdressing?

Misplaced priority everywhere

Is crossdresser our major problem now? Bandits/Terrorists Or Crossdresser choose one.

Actually, is prohibition of cross dressing the most pressing issues in the stupid contraption right now? There are far more pressing issues. They should just allow anyone who wants to cross dress cross dress. In as much as they are not harming anyone.

This people are all mad 😡

Bunch of hippopotamus

Misplaced priorities 😢

Problem wey Una get for hand no fit settle na dressing come be Una wahala abi? Are we complaining

That’s what is doing you people right now?

Sounds idiotic

The institution 'Family' must be protected at all cost. Let our children not learn rubbish in the name of westernization

Useless lawmakers

They should focus on the economy and security, are cross dressers the problem of this country, there are more pressing matters. Foolish set of people

It's crossdresssing that bring looting and terrorism abi? How did we elect these blank headed representatives?

Abeg make dem wait o,I just want to start o. I need to make money from it B4 dey bar it o😂

Lazy people

If misplaced priority was a country

That's nt our problem idiots...

They should make 7yrs imprisonment

Nice one 👍👍

Good move though. Before it turns to what we can’t handle in the country.
