The Commission’s Chairman expressed delight on the working visit, saying it will affect the two nation’s positively in the area of streamlining, and improving the legislative performance of the lawmakers in both Nigeria and Ghana.

Kadi said the working visit will avail both countries to assess their democratic Institutions and create opportunities established by the bilateral visit to improve and adjust democratic norms, principles and practices.
