Buahri's "transmission" letter stirs laughter in the senate.


What could appear so serious on Wednesday became a mirth for the upper chamber of the National Assembly.

 Mr. Buhari had written a letter to the senate on the "Transmission of the Deep Offshore and Inland Basin Production Sharing Contracts Amendment Bill 2018”.

 As soon as he(Saraki) mentioned the first word, “transmission,” he and all the lawmakers burst into laughter.
It took a few moments for Mr Saraki to compose himself and re-read the letter. “Let me start again,” he said trying to put on a serious face.
Even though his second attempt to read the letter caused more laughter, he, however, proceeded.
“Dear Distinguished Senate President,
“Transmission of the Deep Offshore and Inland Basin Production Sharing Contracts Amendment Bill 2018.
“I forward there with the draft of deep off shore and inland basin production sharing contracts amendment bill 2018 for the kind consideration and passage by the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. While hoping that the bill will receive the usual expeditious consideration and passage by the distinguished senate, please accept Mr Senate President the assurances of my highest regards.
“Yours Sincerely, Muhammadu Buhari,” the letter read.
Few weeks ago there was a viral video of the IGP Idris trying to read a speech at the Police Technical Intelligence Unit in Kano, he battled to pronounce the word "transmission" several times which was picked by the social critics to chides him which has formed the basis of the lawmakers on "transmission".
