President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, has called on lawmakers to stay committed to the political system of their respective parties not minding the outcome of the just concluded primaries.
The Senate President made this known on Tuesday in an address delivered to welcome members of the upper chamber back from the break.
The chamber suspended plenary on Wednesday, May 11, 2022, to enable lawmakers participate in the primaries of political parties.
Lawan, in his welcome address, also underscored the need for the Senate to prioritise the nation’s security challenges, as well as undertake further amendment of the Electoral Act.
According to him, the electoral process in the just concluded primaries have thrown up issues that must be critically looked at by the National Assembly.
The Senate President added that the Ninth Assembly in the last three years has done so much in improving the quality of governance.​
