Acting
President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has written to the Senate, saying he has
withheld assent to four bills passed by the National Assembly.
The
bills are Dangerous Drugs Amendment Bill 2016, National Lottery Commission Bill
2016, Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme Fund 2016, and Currency Conversion
Freezing Order Amendment Bill 2016.
Osinbajo
had last week assented to seven bills passed by the legislature.
President
of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, who read Osinbajo’s letter to senators during
plenary, said the chamber would seek legal advice on the matter as it had to do
with separation of power.
