Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Edo North Senator-elect Adams Oshiomhole said the 10th Senate would not be a runner stamp for President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu after its inauguration.<\/p>\n

Oshiohole noted that Tinubu looks forward to a senate that would contribute to the country\u2019s development.<\/p>\n

The former Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, said he would not be part of a \u201clegislature for the powerful but for the countrymen\u201d.<\/p>\n

He promised that the Senate would legislate in a way that ensures Nigerians get value for money.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not there for the allowance. Even the president-elect will not look forward to a rubber stamp assembly but the one that can help to contribute to knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ex-National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, said the next Senate would work for economic growth, robust GDP and power reforms.<\/p>\n

Oshiomhole added that the government must find the courage to deal with a system that makes citizens pay bills for power they did not consume.<\/p>\n
