We will see to it that we conclude work on these bills so that they can be presented to Mr President during the life of this administration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Gbajabiamila, one recurring criticism of the legislature in Nigeria has been the lack of continuity and the absence of tools and procedures for establishing an institutional memory. He noted that government is a continuum, as the actions of one administration will continue to impact the country long into the future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the democratic process leads to continuous personnel turnover, it is vital to have a system that allows future officeholders to understand the decisions made by their predecessors. In the executive arm of government, it is established practice to prepare handover notes,\u201d he added<\/p>\n<p>The Speaker also noted that over the last few appropriation cycles, the dire conditions of national finance had required significant borrowing to finance government operations, sustain investments in infrastructure and national security, as well as improve the living conditions of the Nigerian people.<\/p>\n<p>Gbajabiamila further noted that as the country approached the 2023 general elections, there had been \u201ca marked increase in incidents of insecurity and vicious attacks on political actors in parts of the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the people must unite to \u201censure this dangerous trend does not lead to circumstances that threaten the forthcoming elections.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila on Tuesday has implored members to focus on their\u00a0national assignments as they are distracted by the political campaigns towards the general election.
