<\/p>\nSpeaking at The Osasu Symposium in Abuja on Thursday, Melaye insisted the National Assembly has been accused of delaying the budget, where \u201cin fact\u201d, the fault lies with the executive.<\/p>\n
Responding to a question on whether Buhari reads laws that are being passed by the national assembly, Melaye said Nigerians know he is not fit to govern the country.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, had said Buhari signs laws in the interest of Nigerians and any law he rejects is also in the interest of the country.<\/p>\n
In response to Amaechi, Melaye said: \u201cI know Honourable Rotimi Amaechi very well, and he is my brother, he is my friend. Normally, he is more eloquent than this, normally, he would speak with precision than this.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut you know when you are not saying the truth, it will never flow. The issue of the budget as raised by Honourable Rotimi Amaechi, I am happy that he was a legislator, and he was a presiding officer at the state house of assembly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking on the issue of budget delays, Melaye added: \u201cThe truth will remain the truth. At what point did you bring the budget? If you will all recall that the president of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives, had to write Mr. President, accusing leaders of MDAs for refusing to come and defend their budget.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe President had to order his ministers to go to the national assembly and defend their budgets before they came.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe truth is, all political appointees, including Rotimi Amaechi must become born again, if we want to move this country forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn whether the president reads these laws or not, all Nigerians, we know ourselves; you cannot give what you don\u2019t have. President Muhammadu Buhari is not intellectually, emotionally, physically, mentally, equipped to govern this country.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
