Questions over constitutional proceduresThe lawmakers accused public institutions of increasingly treating constitutional provisions as optional and warned that such practices threaten democratic governance.
The group also questioned the House’s passage of the Executive State Police Constitutional Alteration Bill on 23 July 2026.
Budget implementation under scrutinyThe lawmakers also expressed concern over what they described as persistent failures by the federal government to fully implement annual budgets.
Concern over alleged off-budget spendingThe group further called for an independent forensic audit into reports of alleged off-budget public expenditure.
“This administration cannot demand sacrifice from Nigerians while public expenditure remains opaque,” the statement said.
