Senate will address all injustice against Nigerians-Saraki

The President of the Senate Dr Bukola Saraki has pledged the commitment of the 8th Senate to address on petitions bordering on injustice against Nigerians.
Saraki said that the 8th Senate had finalised 74 petitions in only two years stressing that the number was more than what any other senate had treated in the history of Nigeria.

“We represent Nigerians, we are voted for that, the difference between democracy and military rule is parliament.

“In Kwara central if anybody feels there has been injustice against him anywhere in the system it is me that he comes to and says you are representing me, fight for me.

“Over the years, nobody attends to such petitions but we have treated over 70 petitions in two years: I know a senate that treated only 5 petitions in four years.

“So there is an avenue now for Nigerians to go to if they feel there has been an injustice,” he said.

This is even as he has called on Nigerian to feel free to submit their petitions to the Senate or the House of Representatives through their representative in the National Assembly.
