As Nigeria’s 10th Senate marks its second anniversary, the upper chamber of the National Assembly finds itself at a complex intersection of productivity and perception, Sunday Aborisade reports.
Without doubt, the 10th Senate under the leadership of the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio has recorded an impressive number of bills and motions but critics continue to question its independence, accusing it of functioning as a “rubber stamp” for the executive arm of government.
An elated Akpabio was obviously happy as he reeled out his achievements on Thursday, the 12th of June, during a joint session of the two chambers of the National Assembly for the Democracy Day address by President Bola Tinubu.
