...political capital of the President and unleashed many reservations about the controversial bill. The Senate deadline was moved to October just as 12 senators signed the committee report concluding that the BBL is unconstitutional, indicating that the Senate would push for major revisions. Senator Ferdinand Marcos Jr has gone to the extent of saying he will file a new bill that is substantially different from what is being deliberated. Over at the House of Representatives, House Majority Leader Neptali Gonzales II admitted passing the bill now is a “cause for concern.” After the bill was passed in the committee, House members were accused of allegedly railroading its approval. Yet the BBL continues to enjoy wide support in core areas, a Social Weather Stations survey released in May showed. (READ: #AnimatED: Law should trump violence) What are the scenarios as the bill faces uncertain support in Congress, constitutional issues, and a tight timeline? 1. Congress fails to pass the BBL and a fallout among rebels follows If the House and the Senate fail to pass the BBL, the status quo would remain – the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) would stay in place and the same regional posts would be available for contention in the 2016 elections.

Hence the Nigerian economy have being attaining a measure of relative sophistication over the years. This is evident in the recent development in the Nigerian financial system. The hitherto esteemed financial practices which are assumed to be the exclusive practices of developed Western Eutopean economies continue to assure prominence in Nigeria. Nay, in all the developing countries. These financial practices manifest themselves in the area of corporate finance. Such practices among others are leasing, loan – sydication and merger – acquisition which is the focus of this study. Merger – acquisition has been defined in many ways ostensibly to bring to light its legal and literal meaning. It will suffice however, to define merger acquisition as a combination of two or more existing companies. Such combination of companies take different forms. Various reasons and theories have been advanced to be the moving focus behind merger execution. The main focus of all the theories or reasons advanced have been the achievement of synergy. What has come to be known in financial parlance as 2 + 2+ = 5. That is, the value of the combined company being greater than the addition of the value of the companies as separate entities.
