Rep. Solomon Maren, (PDP Plateau), on Sunday called on President Muhammadu Buhari to intervene in the crisis in the National Assembly for the progress of the country.

Maren made the call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) during a thanksgiving service organised by Mr Caleb Mutfwang, the Chairman of Mangu Local Government Area at Ampang West in Mangu.

“We, in PDP, are not happy with the development in the National Assembly, because it has prevented us from serving the nation, especially our electorate as expected.

“Only the president can talk sense into his party leaders and their representatives in the National Assembly,’’ he said.

Maren, who is representing Mangu/Bokkos Federal Constituency, described the crisis in the National Assembly as “unacceptable.

“We are expected to resume seating on Tuesday, July 28 and any attempt to shift the date will be resisted, ’’ he added.
