Electoral Act: Amaechi backs Buhari, warns NASS against passing bill into law

First Republic Minister, Mbazulike Amaechi, has backed President Muhammadu Buhari’s decision to withhold assent of the Electoral Amendment Bill.In a statement he issued, the former Aviation Minister explained that the Electoral Act only favours members of the National Assembly and not Nigerians.

“If it left as the National Assembly has presented it to him to sign, it only favours them, who are already sitting members of the National Assembly, because it is they alone that could garner the known and unknown allowances, a heavy amount of money that is required to run an election under their system they are proposing.”

That bill is supported by more than majority numbers of 🇳🇬 citizens and so Buhari & few men shouldn’t thwart its passage into law.
