Speaker of the House of Representatives Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has - TopicsExpress

Speaker of the House of Representatives Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has said that the 2015 general elections must count and be respected. He said it is unacceptable that after 14 years of uninterrupted democracy the nation still suffers acute poverty of democratic culture and practices. He was speaking yesterday in Abuja at the special plenary session to mark the second anniversary of the 7th House of Representatives. “We must place national interest above selfish interest; we must place objective principles above parochialism and whims. We must deliberately promote a viable and transparent electoral process. The right to opinion and dissent must be given space in our political discussing. “Internal party democracy is a sine qua non to the genuine development of democratic culture, therefore, as we work and walk towards 2015, we ought to take the vow that all votes must count whether in intra party democratic processes or at the level of inter party contests. True democracy does not happen by accident, it is therefore our duty as intimate practitioners and beneficiaries of political patronage to be in the vanguard of the deepening of democracy. The people of Nigeria desire and deserve this, it is right and honourable we have a duty to deliver these noble expectations. “The role of the legislature in the sustenance of true democracy is critical and imperative, therefore if the legislature loses credibility and the moral standing to efficiently perform its constitutional duties of checks and balances, then democracy is threatened because bigotry, authoritarianism, despotism and all the negative isms will mount the saddle and absolute corruption will run the nation aground. Certainly we have no mandate to oversight the failing of the State,” Tambuwal said. The Speaker also said government measures against insecurity and insurgency are cosmetic, saying the vicious circle of unemployment, poverty and insecurity constitute a grave social malady in the nation’s body politic and which has forced Nigeria to declare a war on consequences rather than causes.
