WHO SUCCEEDS GBAJABIAMILA AS SPEAKER? – THISDAYLIVE

National Assembly will be inaugurated. This will follow its formal proclamation by Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, exactly two weeks after he is sworn in as the 16 President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Expectedly, therefore, attention has shifted from the post-election hullabaloos to the inauguration of the 10th National Assembly, being the most strategic of the tripodal governance structure in our democratic setting. The parliament is the bastion of democracy.

This transformation of the House of Representatives is not an accident. It is the result of conscientious efforts of many members of the Ninth House, but most especially the Speaker, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, as well as his trusted and dependable deputy, Hon. Ahmed Idris Wase. In the area of critical interventions, Nigerians cannot forget in a hurry that it was the House’s intervention that helped to resolve the seeming intractable impasse between the Academic Staff Union of Universities and the federal government, which kept students at home for more than eight months. Significantly, the House pushed for inclusion of the sum of N170 billion in the 2023 Budget to provide a level of increment in the welfare package of university lecturers.

As Chair of the Federal Character Committee, for instance, the current deputy speaker paid no attention to “connections” by ensuring that Nigerians from different ethnic and religious backgrounds get employed in ministries, departments and agencies of the federal government, strictly based on merit. This endeared Wase to many children of less-privileged Nigerians.

As the chairman of the Adhoc Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution, Wase achieved uncommon milestones. President Muhammadu Buhari has just assented to some of the bills passed in the amendment of the Constitution. Some of these assented bills will promote true federalism, devolution of powers from the centre to the states, as well as strengthen government institutions.
