President Muhammadu Buhari has warned ministers and chief executive officers of government agencies to desist from disrespecting members of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, said in a statement that Buhari gave the warning at a session with leaders of the National Assembly in Abuja on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The president had met behind closed door with the Senate President, Senator Ahmed Lawan, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, at the State House.<\/p>\n

The presidential aide said the meeting, which lasted for almost an hour, centered on a range of key national issues.<\/p>\n

\u201dIn the course of their conversation, recent events at the National Assembly were highlighted and the president re-emphasised his utmost respect for the National Assembly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shehu quoted the president to have warned against disrespect to NASS by any member of the executive arm, saying that such action would not be accepted.<\/p>\n

\u201dMinisters and all heads of departments and agencies should at all times conduct themselves in ways that will not undermine the National Assembly as an institution, its leadership and members.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dThe president and the leaders of the National Assembly recognised and acknowledged that the executive and legislative arms of government are essential partners in the fulfillment of their mutually aligned goal of improving the lives of the Nigerian people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
