Some of the newly elected senators and representatives of the National Assembly are seeking inclusion in what they regard as “juicy committees.”
According to SUNDAY PUNCH, some of the committees preferred by these lawmakers in both chambers of the National Assembly are Appropriation; Petroleum Resources (Upstream); Petroleum Resources (Downstream); Gas Resources; Power; and Works.
Besides presiding over the proceedings of the House, the speaker heads the selection committee, which divides members into committees and appoints chairmen and vice-chairmen of such panels.
In the Senate, the Senate president also heads the selection committee, which determines membership of various committees and their heads.
Findings revealed that the lawmakers making these demands are those with clout and who have the followership of their fellow legislators.
