The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr. Babachir Lawal troubles seem to be increasing as Senators of Nigeria are now very angry with him for saying: “The Senate is talking balderdash and it has developed a bring-him-down syndrome.”

However, the war between the Babachir Lawal and the Senators started when the interim report of the Ad hoc Committee on Mounting Humanitarian Crisis in the North-East by the Chairman of the Committee, Shehu Sani revealed that Global Vision Engineering Limited, a company, with Lawal as Director was awarded the contract to clear grass in Yobe at N200m despite being an IT company.

Senator Shehu Sani added that: “Although, Lawal resigned the directorship of the said company in September 2016, it is on record that he is a signatory to the accounts of the company.”

Senator Dino Melaye also reacted to the SGF comments: “This SGF, who is on his way out, also denied and called us liars, I heard his voice on radio: he said we are liars; that he resigned since 2015. I said yesterday that every lie has an expiry date. The lie he told against the Senate is about to expire. I have certified true copies of documents from the Corporate Affairs Commission to puncture Lawal’s claims.”

Besides, the senators are now calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to sack the SGF. They also want him probed and prosecuted.
