President Bola Tinubu has rejected a bill seeking to raise the retirement age of civil servants working in the national assembly
In a letter on Tuesday to the President of the Senate, Tinubu stated why he did not sign the bill.
Tinubu’s letter read, “I write in respect of the harmonised retirement age for legislative officers of the national assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria bill passed by the national assembly and forwarded to me for assent,” he said.
“Upon thorough examination and careful consultation, I have decided to withhold my assent to the bill.
“This decision is made by the powers vested in me by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
