Ok; they are based abroad, so they are not very aware of the local political intrigues. Tinubu is not based abroad to decide who should be in what position

Jayclinics:
A pan-Igbo group based in the United Kingdom, Concerned Diaspora Enugu West, has urged the Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, to step down immediately.
The group said in a statement by its convener, Mr. Ignatius Ozoilo, that Ekweremadu had been the Deputy Senate President since 2007 but had failed to make a mark in the Senate.

The group also berated Ekweremadu for saying that his emergence as the Deputy Senate President despite being in the opposition would be beneficial to the people of the South-East.


The statement read, “We have been deeply worried about the outcome of the leadership contest in the Senate on June 9 in which Senator Ekweremadu, representing Enugu-West senatorial district, put himself forward for the post of the Deputy Senate President

“While we concede that the interest to become part of the leadership of the National Assembly is a legitimate aspiration, we are of the view that it is not a right political decision for Senator Ekweremadu to become and remain the Deputy Senate President of the 8th Assembly.

“Senator Ekweremadu held on as Deputy Senate President for eight years and did so as a member of the then ruling Peoples Democratic Party. He had ample opportunity to use that position to improve the political, economic and social prospects of the country but regrettably he failed to demonstrate any particular sense of legislative acumen for the benefit of his constituency in particular and Nigeria in general.”

The group said Ekweremadu should not have run for Deputy Senate President but should have toed the path of honour like Mr. Leo Ogor who refused the position of Deputy Speaker in the House of Representatives when he was offered the position.

The group said Ekweremadu’s emergence as the Deputy Senate President was a great disservice to Nigerians because the people of Nigeria wanted a change and Ekweremadu represents the old regime.

The group said there was nothing exciting about the South-East producing the Deputy Senate President because the zone was not given any special consideration from 1999 to 2007 when it produced five Senate Presidents.

Five senate presidents and nothing to show for it in the east of nigeria

Ibo politicians and their self greedy!

Revolution is not for corrupt minds and lazy people.

You will see them shout biafra, and yet no common sense of shared identity and sense of purpose. The only thing they share in common is how to embezzle and amass wealth that will not buried with them

It is interesting the Igbo people of the South East are always against themselves. When the popsition of Senate President was given to them between 1999 and 2007 it was war and impeachment saga. Immediately the Ighos phased out of the scene the polity became stabilized and they are at their usual unhealthy rivalry against Ekweremadu again. Now, that Senator David Maart can no longer protect Ekweremadu as he did for 8 years from his hostile Igbo brothers, it is obvious that his days are numbered as Deputy Senate President of Nigeria. Igbo people are the most disunited tribe in Nigeria.

When leaders do not do what they should, it is right that people oppose them and call them to order or at least let them know people are not happy with them.

This should happen more actually.

Dont worry, like the Hausas will always say. Barshi Namu ne aciki meaning ''Let him remain there as long as he is our brother''

Igbos have learnt their lesson. Let him be there like others who have done no better for their own people, na naija we dey. We shall no longer condemn our own in the name of patriotism in public; when he comes home we will know how to deal with him.
