Senators, Reps have failed in oversight — Sha’aban

A former House of Representatives member and governorship aspirant in Kaduna State, Sani Mohammed Sha’aban, has said members of the National Assembly have failed in their oversight functions.

Sha’aban, who represented Zaria Federal Constituency between 2003 and 2007, said the lawmakers have failed in their oversight functions, especially as regards security and the economy, alleging that they are only interested in oversight functions when they are broke, so that they can get allowances and ‘Ghana must go’ attached.

Speaking with journalists in Kaduna, Sha’aban described the recent threat by the National Assembly members to impeach the president as ‘laughable and a huge joke’.

“So, if anybody will wake up today, coming from the Senate or House of Representatives and points an accusing finger at President Buhari on security, I challenge that person to go and impeach Buhari tomorrow if he dares. As you point your finger, millions of people from your constituency will point their fingers at you.

“You say you are representing them, is it when it pinches most that you will find a scapegoat? And you want to make Buhari a scapegoat?”
