PROPHETmichael:


Bills that intellectuals in partnership with stakeholders have sat down to come up with?

and so what ? There might be loopholes within the bill that may not be feasible , any president that just stamps any bill brought to him is a proper f00l , even Trump can't sign just anything that comes from the Senate

OhiOfIhima:



Even Ajaokuta bill too

have you read the details and content of the bill ?

Mystick:
A stumbling block to a progressive reform is what this archaic president is to our nation.
He thinks tribalistic first before nationalistic.

There is nothing that can be more archaic that this way u reason!

The mumu no care again na....the moment he sees ajaokuta.....e don finish! Idiots everywhere!

olagbola45:


you d one who see things as it is those mumus saying rubbish up And below u just talking with sentiment

But you may still not be correct 100%

I think we should all be interested in his reasons for withholding assent to the bills. Now I have followed his reasons and I will give a summary here, I do not have the time to give reasons for rejection of individual bills.

1) A lot of the bills sent to him have clauses that seek to either create some sort of levy or convert a stated percent of existing taxes or levies for there use. Signing such bills will either further "punish" the citizenry or diminish government revenues, thus reducing what can be applied towards capital projects.

2) A lot of the submitted bills seek to duplicate functions of already existing government agencies, hence it will be more pragmatic to seek a revamp of such agencies.

3) Clerical errors.... Yeap, you read that right. They just didn't take the time to properly edit the bills despite the millions they pocket in monthly allocations. Now you may ask why can't presidency just edit the errors and sign? Well, it turns out, you cannot do that to formal documents that mist go through a thorough documents control process. I am a project manager and if you send me document with errors in it, I simply issue a CRS (Company response sheet) wherein I will state the errors and recommend fixes. I am not allowed to edit what you have written! It is then left to you to make the corrections and submit a revised edition of the document.

Yes, the bills may have good intents, but that is never enough in business or governance. You must get the details right or you will not get the desired results.

PEACE CORP BILL WAS ALSO REJECTED BY THE PRESIDENT

9iceprince:

see mumu how many of nairalanders have their PVC all u do is for u to vote on nairaland and mind u this site is full of hating Christians and Ipob pigs

Ok O. I'm neither of the above.

When we say this man is a dullard, wailers will yell at me. Is dis not obvious?

I will make more findings into all theses bills before i say something. He might be right to reject some. Nigerians and so many unnecessaries

I just feel that pa Buhari is not interested in anything that will take the poor out of poverty.

Apelex:
What of peace corps bill

The poster left out Nigerian peace corps bill

kinibigdeal:


Don't call people mumu, people like that just need enlightenment

Bro some of this guy's are hatred personified. They will insult you if you try to reason with them. Ever wondered why they believed buhari was cloned. Anything to put the president down makes them happy. It's not a matter of enlightenment. Go to Facebook and see what supposed learned and exposed pple write about the president. Trust me, 90% of the comments did not even read the full story. They most likely do not even know the contents of these bills and why they were rejected.

You and who are doing that nonsense?
I'm very busy.

Femich18:


You guys just say anything and criticize for criticizing sake. Can you kindly tell us the details of what the first 5 bills rejected?

Everything in life has pros and cons....The pros in all the bills outweighs the cons.

He rejected "Nigerian Peace Corps" bill too

God bless you Sir.
Pple never really give a thought to the reason why we suffer so much constructional mishap in the first place. If you take your time to look at the constitution you will discover from the surface that it is an OK document. Now, go back and look at the clauses and verbiage only then you will understand why we are in such muddy waters. For this I will side with buhari.

I personally agree with you,
but,
can you say any of these reasons apply to his rejection of the Electoral Act amendment?? Ofcourse we all followed up the news then, he delayed a bit after which he rejected it. Does that not mean something?

Buhari is a dullard so I am not surprised..

3. Ajaokuta Steel Company Completion Fund Bill, 2018;

Lol I wonder if NASS will punk out like usual or overide his veto. They were passionate about this issue and seemed like they had numbers.

That one had a lot of politics and a sprinkling of pragmatism. I intend to write about it someday, maybe during my annual leave, that is, if the Ijebu in me doesn't make me pick up a small maintenance project during the leave. I too like money

NIGERIA PEACE CORP BILL

You should ask why didn’t National Assembly override it.

One of the flaws is a clause that requires voting to be electronically transmitted but was silent on the need to count the votes first. Ordinarily, you would think that counting is a given logically but in law, some smart lawyers will pounce on the lacuna to prove that what is not expressly required by law is discretionary. Also does it mean we should use electronic voting or vote manually and result must be electronically transmitted to a server.

Peace corp of Nigeria nko

They don’t have the numbers. Remember that the bill was sponsored by the Speaker who everybody must try to be in his good book then, not now.

The executive wanted to get foreign investors to fund the completion, all of a sudden, the Speaker visited the place and thereafter organized a stage-managed stakeholder meeting inside the chamber which the executive boycotted. It was at meeting that the house passed a vote of no confidence on Fayemi - the then minister of mines and steel.

Buhari’s major angst with the bill is that it requires part of our foreign reserves to be used to finance the completion of the project. The executive see government further participation in the project as a drain pipe.

dele31:
So you expect him to sign all bills and put Nigeria into problems. In as much as I will not support his attitude towards some bills, some of those rejected bills will not add positive values to the country

list the bills that won't add value.

I wish a B52 can carpet bomb this white elephant project.

Does he really understand what those bills are?

Guys just leave this man and let's do our thing.

He is just after a race run...not for country.

Before one will be quick to judge, it would be good if the OP had shared what the bill seek to achieve than mere look on their headings/title.

Remember, they are advisers in those areas.
