Senate's President ,David Mark said Our Infformation Minister does not think properly before He talk

Senate President David Mark is apparently very angry with the
Information Minister Labaran Maku. Senator Mark had been reacting to a
statement credited to the information minister on Senate's stand on
the introduction of the N5000 note. It will be recalled that the
Senate had advised the president to put the introduction of the new
note on hold. In response to this, the information minister had said
that the resolutions of the Senate were not binding on the Presidency.

The angry Senate President was speaking on Tuesday during a debate on
the menace of flooding in the country, and he warned that henceforth
any minister who smears the reputation of the legislature would
attract its wrath. He went as far as threatening to pass a resolution
urging President Goodluck Jonathan to sack ministers who make
unguarded statements capable of undermining the legislature.

According to Senator Mark, "Maku is a careless talker; he does not
think properly before he talks… Maku cannot educate us but we are to
educate him… The President should caution him and the President must
call his ministers to order… Next time a minister talks any how about
the Senate, we shall take a resolution that such a minister be
removed."

So, Mr Labaran Maku should be careful next time as we all know that
the majority of Nigerians are particularly against the idea of the
single N5000 note.
