The new Clerk to the National Assembly (CNA), Mr Kamorudeen Ogunlana, has pledged institutional reforms, including democratisation of the management process of the assembly.
Ogunlana, in a statement after his assumption of office in Abuja, urged members of the management team to work harmoniously.
He said: “I intend to democratise decision-making. There is no way I will sit down here [and take decision alone], because I do not know it all.
“I have the legal and the legislative background, but I cannot claim to be an expert when it comes to financial issues, and that is where teamwork comes in.”
According to him, :the office of the CNA comes with a big task, as it supervises no fewer than 4,000 workforce.”
He said that this required teamwork.
Ogunlana, who formally assumed duty on Saturday as the ninth CNA since 1993, commended his predecessor, Mr Sani Tanbuwal, for his courage and leadership qualities while at the helms of affairs of the assembly.
The handover ceremony, which took place at the National Assembly complex, was attended by management staff members and other dignitaries.
