Senior Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate), Sen. Ita Enang, has said President Muhammadu Buhari’s government is the most transparent so far. Enang further urged Nigerians to feel free to approach government functionaries on activities of government they were not clear about, rather than forming wrong opinions about government’s intentions.
While speaking with lawyers from Akwa Ibom, under the auspices of Akwa Ibom Lawyers Forum, who visited him in Abuja yesterday, the president’s aide said, “President Buhari’s government is the most transparent in Nigeria and he has put in all he can to serve the nation. The president and all of us working with him are the servants of the people and we are always ready to attend to concerns by Nigerians about the running of government. Nigerians should feel free to ask questions on what they do not understand rather than assuming and forming wrong opinions about workings of government,” he said.
Enang also insisted that the executive was not attempting to muzzle the legislature, but asking lawmakers to act according to the constitution, adding that such allegations were unfounded.
“The Executive is not muzzling the Legislature. It is only asking the legislature to act within its constitutional powers and not get into executive realm, otherwise the executive will continue to resist."
