Back from the yuletide break last Tuesday, January 17, the House of Representatives commenced regular plenary amidst concerns that a lot that needed to be done may not be attended to for want of time, as the general elections beckons. JOSHUA EGBODO points out some of the pending legislative interventions before the House.
At resumption last week, Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila reminded his colleagues that a lot were yet before the House, even in the face of the limited time available to it. It is sacrosanct that the House will end its tenure sometime in June this year, and with activities around the general elections at their peak as the days draw closer, analysts have concluded that not much would be achieved before the polls, more that many members with tickets in their bids to return would be more concerned with their campaigns.
