The federal government yesterday described the directive by the All Progressives Congress (APC) that its members in the National Assembly should prevent all executive bills, including the 2014 budget as undemocratic, anti-people and anti-national development.
The APC, , had last Thursday directed its members in the National Assembly to stop the confirmation of the appointments of ministerial nominees and military chiefs, as well as the passage of the 2014 budget pending when the presidency decides to address the crisis in Rivers State.
But information minister, Mr. Labaran Maku who made government’s position known while briefing State House correspondents after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting presided over by President Goodluck Jonathan observed that the said directive, if allowed to be carried out by the party lawmakers, would cripple the nation’s democracy as well as endanger the lives of innocent Nigerians.
