 The Senate says it has constituted a committee to probe why President Mohamed Buhari did not ascend to 19 out of the 35 constitution review bills transmitted to him by the National Assembly. The Senate President Ahmad Lawan made this assertion in his remarks during resumption of plenary after the governorship and state House of Assembly elections. Lawan commanded President Buhari for ascending to 16 constitution amendment bills, particularly the bills to guarantee the independence of state legislatures and the judiciary. He however said the upper chamber will engage with the presidency to understand why the remaining 19 bills were not ascended to. For the 19 bills that Mr. President did not ascend to, I believe that there is need for us to do further engagement between the National Assembly and the executive arm of government. We will constitute, I think we already have our constitution review committee to engage the executive arm of government. I don't know whether it will be the office of the attorney general or the executive maybe constitute a small committee. Let's go through the items, those bills that have not been ascended. What are the issues? Are those issues issues that we can deal with immediately because we are putting a lot of resources, a lot of time to produce those bills and I believe that maybe there are a few explanations that could be made and then they will be okay and we will do that almost immediately because time is of essence.
