Saraki cautions NASS workers

Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki on Thursday charged workers of the National Assembly to shun corruption, inefficiency and bureaucratic delays in the discharge of their duties.
Saraki stated this when the leadership of the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), National Assembly chapter, visited him in Abuja.
The Senate President acknowledged that the workers were key to the success of the 8th Senate, saying that the upper chamber under his leadership would continue to make issues of staff welfare a top priority.
He said that while the Senate is ready to provide the conducive environment necessary for the staff to deliver on their mandate, the Senate in turn expects managers of its bureaucracy to reciprocate the gesture through hard work and dedication to their duties.
The Senate President added that the 8th Senate is determined to work hard and that the unalloyed support of the workers is needed to enable it succeed.

He said: “More importantly, please go back and charge your colleagues that we must work very hard to bring result to the great people of Nigeria that are yearning for change and as you do that, I am sure that what you need for your own welfare will be addressed,” Saraki said.
Earlier, Chairman of the National Assembly branch of PASAN, Comrade Bature Musa, said the emergence of Saraki as the Senate President has been of great blessing to all members of the union.
He specifically thanked the Senate President for his kind gesture towards the Muslim members of the association during the Ramadan fast and urged him to extend same to the Christian members during their festivities.
