The Minister of Transportation, Senator Saidu Alkali, has said synergy between lawmakers and the executive arm of government, both at the national and subnational level, is vital to good governance and effective budget processes.
Alkali stated this yesterday in Abuja while delivering a keynote address at the annual retreat for members of the Gombe State House of Assembly with the theme ‘Enhancing Good Governance through Effective Budget Process’.
He admonished the Gombe lawmakers to engage the resource team to share knowledge and experience on different methods of applying the rules of legislative practice and procedure.
Speaking earlier in his welcome remarks, the Speaker, Gombe State House of Assembly, Honourable Abubakar Mohammed, revealed the overall aim of the 2023 retreat, which he said is to deepen the understanding of the legislators on legislative procedures and effective budget processes.
