 The House of Representatives has said there was no selfish interest in the passage of the Electoral Act Amendment Bill into law by the National Assembly. The Green Chamber made the clarification through its Chairman House Committee on Media and Public Affairs Benjamin Kahlu during the press briefing after Thursday's plenary. Kahlu said the House activities and actions have always been guided by public interest and the need to deepen the tenets of democracy. How the town hall, how the opinion of the people says granted that it may not be a perfect piece of legislation because what they wanted was direct primaries but not conceding that the options of indirect primaries and the consensus option goes against the advancement of our democratic ethos and advancement of our democracy, let us move on. And that is not selfish interest. That is public interest and this is the parliament of the people. Whatever action that we take, whatever motions that we move, whatever resolution that we raise, whatever bill that we make, we make not as unto ourselves to the exclusion of orders. We make it for the generality of Nigerians because for now we are members of the parliament. Who knows tomorrow we might be in the executive or even be outside government. The laws we make today will be there to govern us and the time to come as citizens of this country.
