Kamoru Ogunlana, Clerk to the National Assembly of Nigeria, has called for the development of legislative drafting manuals to improve the quality of legislation in line with global best practices. Ogunlana made this appeal on Monday while hosting a delegation from the British Parliament at the National Assembly in Abuja.
He emphasized that the visit provided an opportunity to exchange ideas and learn from the British Parliament’s experiences, which could help Nigeria build a more robust democratic institution. Ogunlana highlighted the long-standing relationship between the Nigerian and British Parliaments, dating back to the early 20th century, and how it has influenced Nigeria’s legislative framework and governance structures.
