Saraki laments the continous killing in the country, calls for drastic actions from NASS and Presidency

Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki has lamented the killings around the country especially the recent attack in Plateau State.

Dr Saraki made this known in Ilorin, Kwara state while calling for drastic action from both the National Assembly and the Presidency at putting an end to the menace.

He added that the National Assembly under his leadership would not shy away from its responsibilities.

The Senate President while speaking with newsmen after an assessment tour of some areas in the metropolis, said, “As you know very much, that the National Assembly under my leadership many months ago had seen the danger.

“We had called for security summit to address the issue of security architecture. We had seen the need for us to review the security structure.

“We had invited service chiefs on the matter. You are all very aware that some service chiefs decided in their own wisdom that there is no need for them to work with the NASS to address these issues.” he added.
