The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has called on members of the National Assembly to consider national interest above all other considerations in the conduct of their legislative business.
In a statement signed by its Chairman, Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary, Cassidy Madueke, the BMO asked the federal legislators to cut short their recess so as to deliberate on President Muhammadu Buhari’s request for virement in order to successfully execute the 2019 general elections.
The group said that the federal lawmakers had every reason to suspend their recess now that the calendar for the 2019 election was set to go into operations.
“How do Nigerians expect INEC to kick-start processes leading to the election when federal lawmakers are busy at holiday spots across the world? We wonder why they have to be prevailed upon to do a duty Nigerians elected them to do,” the statement said.
