Senate President Godswill Akpabio has issued a stern warning to chairpersons of standing committees in the upper chamber, stating that those who fail to perform their duties effectively will be replaced.
Akpabio’s comments came during plenary session on Tuesday, in response to complaints from Senator Abdul Ningi, who represents Bauchi Central, regarding the senate committee on finance’s failure to carry out its oversight function on revenue-generating agencies.
Akpabio emphasized that the leadership of the Senate will take drastic measures if committee chairpersons are not doing their work effectively.
