Minister of Information and
Culture, Lai Mohammed, on Wednesday assured that the fresh crisis between the
Presidency and the Senate would be resolved amicably.
Mohammed gave the assurance in a
chat with State House correspondents at the presidential villa, Abuja.
Mohammed revealed that the threat
by the Senate was briefly discussed during the Council’s meeting.
He said: “Clearly it came up at the meeting, but the fact of the matter is that we have a very excellent mechanism for resolving whatever issues is between us and the National Assembly and that is being addressed.”
Recall that on Tuesday, the
Senate attacked Osinbajo over his position that not all appointments by
the executive needed confirmation.
In protest, Senate turned down
Osinbajo’s letter to confirm the Director General, National Lottery Regulatory
Commission, Lanre Gbajabiamila.
The development followed a motion
brought by Senator Sani Yerima, Zamfara West Senatorial district.
