National Assembly will be part- time if I become president of Nigeria again – IBB

Former military president, retired Gen. Ibrahim
Badamasi Babangida, on Tuesday disclosed that
if he has another opportunity to be in charge of
the nation’s affairs, he would make the National
Assembly to be part-time.
Babangida, who disclosed this while speaking
with journalists at his hilltop residence in Minna,
Niger state said, “During my public life, there
were several decisions we took as military
officers or as political officers, that if given
another chance, I would do differently. For
example, in 1989, we proposed that the national
assembly should be optional, that is part-time.
“I still believe that if I had the opportunity, I
would make the national assembly part-time. I
believe in that very strongly and is part of
efforts to cut down the cost of governance in
Nigeria,” he stated.
