Kwara Lawmakers Reject Legislative Watch, Meet Organisers; 'since they are not entirely satisfied with the content, they will not accept the report'

By Muideen Awal/ Ilorin// Earlier today, a team from Kwara Must Change appeared before a Committee on Youth, Sport and Information at the Kwara State House of Assembly, following the invitation of the house to the group over the recently released Legislative Watch report.

The lawmakers, who preside over the session said that they appreciate the efforts put into the production of Legislative Watch, but would like to know more about the report and share their observation, hence our invitation for the meeting.

In Kwara Must Change’s presentation, we took the lawmakers through the process of producing Legislative Watch, which includes the standard development, modality review, composition of assessment modality and the process of rating.

There were question and answer session, moments of tensed engagement, mutual disagreement and agreement, accusation and clarification and finally, the moment of closure.

Kwara Must Change presented copies of Legislative Watch report to the members for proper study, including their official result card which shall be made public in few days, but it was rejected by them.

They noted that since they are not entirely satisfied with the content, they will not accept the report.

After the closure of the meeting, deputy clerk of the house approached the team of Kwara Must Change to request for two copies of the report, which was granted.
