Sada Soli (born 13 March, 1962), is a Nigerian politician who represented Jibia/Kaita Federal Constituency of Katsina State. Soli has also served as a Member of the House of Representatives in the 6th, 9th and 10th National Assembly of Nigeria. Quotes “Let us be fair to Mr President. For a President to take a decision, he has to rely on certain advice. I think the president was poorly advised. People that drafted these bills in the first place, the draft was poorly done because they were referring to the bills as acts. When I read these bills I know that they were poorly drafted and were not subjected to professional drafters." “We have to be fair to the President. He is an individual. He was advised by his consultants. And the bill did not go through the normal process it should have followed. Bola Tinubu, anybody that knows him knows his political sagacity." “He is an inclusive politician. I have to be fair to him. When he realizes that the bills are capable of causing some problems, he subjected them to all scrutiny. Governors looked at them. He said that the Senate should go and sit down with the Attorney General of the Federation. He discussed with the Speaker and members of the House of Representatives to widely look at them, before he tried to consider the bills.” “I can guarantee you all this reportage going on our papers were based on ignorance even for the basis of not passing the bill as a law in this country, please, I urge all journalists to pick that bill and read it just for pleasure." "The bill is not Sada Soli’s bill. I was not in the 8th Assembly. I was in the 6th Assembly. There were 4 water resources legislations in the water sector. The National Water Resource Act, Nigerian Institute for Water Resources, Kaduna; Nigeria Hydrological Service Agency and Roger Basin Development Authority Act. Those are the 4 Acts that regulate the National Water Resources. And this bill added what we called WASH: Water, Sanitation and Hygiene components because this is the global trend on the water sector. This is not intended to generate any acrimony. It’s not Sada Soli’s bill. I only happened to be the chairman, Water Resources Committee and I found the bill on the committee,” External links Category:Politicians from Nigeria Category:1962 births Category:Living people
