BREAKING: President Muhammadu Buhari is back in the country from Egypt where he attended the ASWAN Forum on Peace and Sustainable Development in Africa.
The sum of a whole is definitely greater than the sum of its part. So they should work together. Individuals should have a personal developmental agenda. The National Assembly is a system that should be run as a system #Aikhuomogbe#ChannelsBeam
It is very important that we change the rules of campaign finance. For me it should not just be about Not Too Young To Run. We should also have Not Too Poor To Run so you don't necessarily break the bank or bow before someone who has to run for an election #Omojuwa#ChannelsBeam
After the excitement of Not Too Young To Run, political parties came up with expensive forms to run for public office. So, we can't enjoy the dividends of democracy if we continue this old habit of money politics. #HamzatLawal#ChannelsBeam
When one wants to run for office where (s)he resides, they will say this is not your state of origin. The 9th Assembly has the unique opportunity to amend the constitution to ensure that what we have is state of residence rather than state of origin. #HamzatLawal#ChannelsBeam
There should be a regime change on constituency allowance because that is where people feel the pulse on government programmes and intervention. The 9th Assembly has a unique opportunity to ensure that they provide better and effective oversight. #HamzatLawal#ChannelsBeam
I don't think there has been a Bill that has been entirely bad. But there are instances where we have had to campaign against certain bills being shutdown because politicians often try to use a very good reason to introduce some bad things into the laws. #Omojuwa#ChannelsBeam
The National Assembly cannot succeed alone; it needs the Executive to succeed and that's why you could see the high number of rejections; the President not assenting to a lot of those bills. It definitely affected their results and impact. #Omojuwa#ChannelsBeam
They (8th Assembly) were very prolificand in the circumstances with their relationship with the executive, I think they did the best they could do, but Nigeria as a country did not get the best of that relationship #Omojuwa#ChannelsBeam

Asking him (CJN) to step aside is not saying he is guilty. It’s just saying that until he has been deemed guilty or not, this is what should happen and we don’t want to taint the judicial system with whether or not we have a conclusion yet - #TaiwoAshaju#OnnoghenSuspension
Our constitution was built upon our moral standards. The constitution is saying this is what we think is right or wrong and how it should be executed. And now we have a situation where the CJN has been recused pending when the case is done - #TaiwoAshaju#OnnoghenSuspension
