The meeting of the Senate caucus of the All Progressives Congress, APC, on Tuesday, with The National Working Committee, NWC, ended in deadlock, as the meeting was characterized by fireworks.
The meeting was at the instance of the National Working Committee, NWC, to mediate on the lingering face-off between the Executive and the Senate.
Some of the Senators after the meeting, expressed disappointment that the resolution of the Senate on the Acting Chairman, Economic And Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, had not received any response from the President, despite his rejection twice by the Senate.
“We let them know we feel disrespected as an institution. How can the Senate send a memo to the President on Magu, and there has been no response?
“But by choosing to be silent and letting him continue in an acting capacity, it is a slight on us as an equal arm of government.
“We also let them know that the delay in the Constitution of governing Boards of Agencies and Parastatals, is affecting us as party stakeholders. People who put in their all, mobilised for the party’s success in the 2015 general elections, are yet to be rewarded, and they call us every day to ask us what is going on.
