The Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay,
SAN, has warned the Nigerian Senate that it will regret its decision to threaten the president, Muhammadu Buhari.
The warning comes after the National Assembly
rejected the Resident Electoral Commissioners, RECs, sent to it for confirmation by the
president on Tuesday.
Prof. Sagay who described the move by the Nigerian senate as “childish and irresponsible”
noted that the stance of the Senate is in protest against the president and his decision
to retain Ibrahim Magu as the acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC.
Sagay said:
“That action is childish and irresponsible.
Do they think Buhari is a man that can
easily be threatened? My God! How can
people of such character occupy the highest legislative office in the country?
Nigeria is finished.
“It is a great mistake and they will regret it.”
“Where the Senate is required to approve a person for a particular position and they refuse to do it, the person could continue to act depending on the nature
of the appointment.
“However, if the nominee is coming from
another sector, just like in the case of
the RECs, it means they cannot act.
However, people below that rank in INEC
can continue to act as RECs all over the
country as it has been done.”
“What this action means is that the
Senate is being occupied by the most
unserious set of Nigerians in history.
Nigeria is currently at its lowest level
because we have people who have no
sense of responsibility, who have no feeling and are there for just vanity and are ready to bring down the country in order to feel important, it is the worst case of abuse ever.
“Let them do what they want, they will regret it.”
