Refusal to assent to 17 bills: Senate to override President Buhari on two bills

The National Assembly may soon lock horns again with the executive over the president’s refusal to assent to seventeen bills.
A Technical Committee set up to review Declined Assents to Bills by President Muhammadu Buhari is recommending that the Senate overrides the president on two bills namely the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (Fourth Alteration, No. 28) Bill, 2018 and the Industrial Development (Income Tax Relief) Amendment Bill, 2018.
