According to Senator Lado, honoring Senate invitations aligns with both constitutional obligations and President Tinubu’s vision of a responsive, accountable, and effective government. He noted that this directive supports Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope” agenda, aimed at delivering rapid and transformative governance to Nigerians.

 

The Presidency’s call comes a day after the Senate announced its decision to issue warrants of arrest for certain agency heads, including Mrs. Walson-Jack, Works Minister David Umahi, and NiDCOM Chairman Abike Dabiri-Erewa, for repeatedly failing to appear before the Senate’s Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Public Petitions.

 

Other agency leaders facing potential arrest include the heads of Union Homes Savings and Loans Plc, Enugu Electricity Distribution Company, and Sally Best Properties Limited, following complaints by the Senate Committee’s Chairman, Senator Neda Imasuen.

 

In his address, Senator Lado reiterated the administration’s commitment to transparency, noting that timely cooperation between the Executive and the Legislature is essential for achieving the administration’s goals. He urged all MDAs to prioritize Senate engagements, emphasizing that these opportunities allow agencies to showcase their dedication to accountability and good governance.

 

Lado concluded by reaffirming that the Office of the Special Adviser on Senate Matters remains committed to facilitating communication between agencies and the National Assembly, ensuring that all government entities contribute meaningfully to national development.
