Buhari will address joint National Assembly Thursday – Onochie

President Muhammadu Buhari will on Thursday address a joint session of the National Assembly on security situation in the country, his Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, has said.

She stated this in a message she posted on her Twitter handle, @Laurestar, on Monday.

It read, “President @MBuhari will address a joint session of the National Assembly (@nassnigeria) on Thursday, December 10, 2020.”

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, said last week that the President had agreed to honour the House’s invitation to speak on the efforts being made by his regime to address the security challenges being witnessed across the country.

The Reps had last week Tuesday invited the President to appear on the floor of the parliament and explain the rising spate of insecurity in the country.

The decision was based on a motion of urgent national importance moved by the Borno State caucus on the last weekend’s killing of farmers in the state.

The Senate had also in a separate resolution asked the President to sack his service chiefs.
