The Presidency
has reacted to the controversy in the House of Representatives over alleged
N42billion constituency projects inserted into the budget at committee level
after the House had passed the document.
Presidential
spokesman, Femi Adesina, yesterday said the wrangling was a matter the
presidency could not dabble in yet.
According to
him, it was only when the House of Representatives referred it to the executive
that the presidency can act.
“It is a
National Assembly matter, especially the House of Representatives,” he told
Daily Trust.
“When it is
sorted out there and referred to the Presidency, that is when the Presidency
can do anything about it.
“There is the
principle of separation of power,” Adesina added.
