The National Assembly has expressed worry over the recent conduct of some government officials in the Executive Arm, whose behaviours the leadership of the Legislature considers uncooperative.
Senate President, Ahmad Lawan expressed this On Thursday while speaking to State House Correspondents after a closed-door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa Abuja.
Lawan, who was in the Villa in company of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, noted that the current National Assembly has had a cordial relationship with the Executive Arm, citing the atmosphere provided by the President as reason.
He noted that the cordial relationship between the Executive and Legislative Arms would remain smooth to deliver quality leadership to Nigerians.
He, however, said though the National Assembly would not continue to tolerate indiscrete attitudinal displays from appointees of the President, It would not define its relationship with the President by the misdemeanor of one appointee.
