Governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike has berated the National Assembly, describing it as rubber stamp.
Wike, said this while speaking at the Interdenominational Church Service in commemoration of the 61st Independence Anniversary of Nigeria that held at the St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Port Harcourt on Sunday.
He said we have an irrational legislature, incapable of differentiating between good and bad that continues to approve anything brought by the Presidency not minding the consequences.
“Where is the legislature. A legislature that cannot think, a legislature, anything they bring is right, a legislature that can not say that Nigeria has nothing to regret from conducting free and fair election,” he said.
“A legislature that you’ll close your eyes, anything they bring, about borrowing, you say borrow. A legislature that cannot say that this money we are borrowing where is it, where are you applying it? You have no confidence to ask questions,” he added.
He also said the current administration has failed to support electronic transmission of election results to show transparency, because they plan to rig the 2023 election.
