Last week, Senator Muhammad Enagi Bima, speaking on the floor of the National Assembly (NASS), in Abuja, lashed out at the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Bima – a Senator representing Niger South Senatorial District – was obviously agitated by the recent abduction of schoolboys at the Government Science College, Kagara, in his home State of Niger.
His disapproval of the Buhari administration, especially as it concerns insecurity, despite being a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has already raised some dust.
This, and other interesting stories made up events at the NASS in the past week.

The Senator representing Kaduna Central in the National Assembly, Uba Sani, has said there is an urgent need to amend the nation’s law against illegal arms-bearing.
He said stiffer punishments should be imposed on offenders to effectively tackle insecurity in Nigeria.
Sani, who is currently sponsoring a bill to that effect, told our correspondent on Saturday in Abuja, that most people being arrested for possessing illegal arms found it easy to pay fines imposed on them and move freely in the society afterwards.
The senator described as alarming, a recent report which indicated that over 350 million “illegal” arms and ammunition are currently in possession of many people in Nigeria.
