The Senate has suspended the request by President Muhammadu Buhari to restructure the N22.7 trillion loan from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) over accusation of breaching the apex bank’s rule.
On Wednesday, the Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, called on the chairman of the Finance Committee, Solomon Adeola, to present the report on the CBN ways and means, as well as request from Buhari.
During Adeola’s presentation, some lawmakers including Senator Betty Apiafi and Senator George Thompson Sekibo, kicked against his decision to approve Buhari’s request.
