Senators shun Facebook trainning

By Author
None of the 109 Senators attended an online  training organised on Monday by the office of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

The workshop was organised for the senators and their aides and it was aimed at strengthening their use of Facebook and Social media for effective communication on issues relating to Public Policy and Good Governance. Punch also observed that less than 10 percent of the aides of the senators attended the event. Only 25 out of about 500 senators’ aides, actually turned up for the programme, with majority of those in attendance from the senate president’s office. The Chief of Staff to the Senate President, Senator Isa Galaudu, had in a statement issued on Thursday, said the training  was in line with the promise of the senate president to bring about,  a more representative legislature through the use of technology and e-parliamentary tools. He had said that the training,  would be conducted by the Head of Policy at Facebook Africa and members of her team, billed to arrive in the country on Sunday. Someone said maybe the attendance level will have been different if the training location was in USA or UK. Don't you agree?
