The
Right Group Committee for Transparency and Smooth Governance (CTTSG) has again
called for the scrapping of the Senate and House of Representatives.
The
group through a statement signed by its Secretary-General Chief, Ebri Ukagu
disclosed that their usefulness has been outlived.
Chief
Ukagu disclosed that the call is necessary especially when viewed against the
ominous silence of the both Chambers in the gruesome murder of the Kogi State
woman leader who was burnt to ashes.
Chief
Ukagu observed that both Chambers have refused to carry out oversight function over
the dire state of Nigerian roads. “All
they are after is their welfare, and this is totally wrong”, charged Chief
Ebri. “You can see that they have
neglected the roads; neglected power failure and even social welfare
responsibilities to Nigerians”, he added.
However,
from physical and statistical observation, it is clear that the Red and Green
Chambers only come alive when matters of their personal interest are being
discussed. “There is no where they have
shown that they are for the people”, stated Ebri.
The
Secretary-General declared that it is based on these repeated anomaly that his
group wants the Chambers to be scrapped.
“We cannot (Nigerians) continue to bear the burden for their profligacy
and short sightedness”.
