Why Buhari can’t be tight-lipped over immunity proposal by the 8th National Assembly

By Editor

The  National Assembley  proposal to grant immunity to top officials, including the Senate President and Speaker, has sparked outrage. This move seems like a revenge tactic, especially with Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki facing trial for false assets declaration.

  Granting immunity would undermine President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption efforts and contradict the United Nations Convention against Corruption. It’s a double standard for lawmakers to regulate others while exempting themselves.   The National Assembly should prioritize victims of corruption and promote accountability instead of shielding themselves. President Buhari must speak out against this initiative to protect his anti-corruption agenda ¹.   Also Read: National Assembly to Host President Tinubu for Democracy Day
