Saraki replies Obasanjo, says 8th Senate accountable, transparent and responsible

The President of the Senate, Sen. Bukola Saraki, on Thursday said the 8th Senate was committed to good governance, transparency, accountability and due process.

The Chairman of the National Assembly (NASS) was responding to an open letter from the former President of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, to both chambers in which he called the attention of the lawmakers to issues bordering on budgets and finances of the NASS.



Obasanjo also raised issues of fiscal policy irresponsibility, extravagance and impunity by some members.
Replying to the letter in a statement he signed personally, Saraki however assured the former president that the NASS was aware of the current economic realities and was also cutting its expenditure.
“Yesterday, I acknowledged receipt of a letter from former President Olusegun Obasanjo in which he called the attention of the National Assembly to some issues.
“I will want to assure President Obasanjo that the leadership and membership of the 8th Senate are committed to good governance, transparency, accountability, due process and responsiveness to the economic reality of our nation.
