TheConvener and leader of the coalition Pelumi Olajengbesi, who  made thecall in a statement in Abuja, said such criteria would guide the process andensure fairness and patriotism during screening rather than the “take a bow”method granted to most of the nominees in the just-concluded exercise.
Accordingto the COPA leader, it is the duty of the Legislature to constantly monitor theactivities of the Executive to guarantee visionary leadership. This, he said,should start from the appointment of credible ministers.
Heexpressed the fear that the 9 National Assembly could becomea rubber stamp Assembly if it continued to sacrifice competence andtransparency on the altar of “take a bow and go”.
