Constitution amendment: 
Every vote must count says Gbajabiamila, as Reps test-run voting device

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila, has said that the vote of every member of the House must count during the upcoming voting on bills to further amend the 1999 Constitution.

"Every vote must count because it is a serious business.

"Our constituents must know how we voted on issues and this will have to be open to the public", he stated.

Gbajabiamila spoke in the plenary of the House on Wednesday in Abuja as he asked members to test-run the electronic voting device in the chamber.

He explained that this was in preparation for the voting on the constitution amendment bills soon to be done by the House.

Due to the serious nature of the constitution amendment, the vote of every member is counted as against the usual 'ayes' or 'nays' voice voting during regular House sittings. 

By the provisions of Section 9 of the constitution, a bill seeking to amend the constitution must secure the vote of two-thirds (240) of the 360 members of the House to pass.

This underscores the Speaker's decision to prepare the members ahead of the exercise by test-running the electronic voting device on Wednesday.

The test-running was largely successful except for a few members, who complained that their devices didn't boot properly.

The speaker advised the affected members to send their names to the clerk of the House for immediate remedy.

Voting on a number of motions was done electronically on Wednesday to certify the system okay for the constitution amendment voting due in a few days.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
