Below was my comment on an earlier thread on this same matter. It is a shame that the Nigerian Senate has allowed itself to be reduced to this crass level. [b]"The role occupied by Professor Itse Sagay is not formally recognised by the constitution. He is at best a member of the President's "kitchen cabinet" who was appointed without any recourse to the legislature. I doubt very much that the Senate has any legal right to invite him over a statement he can easily argue that he made in his personal capacity as a Nigerian citizen. Like I said during the Hamidu Alli debacle, the Nigerian senate needs to pick its fight carefully. There is no need issuing ineffectual and pointless decrees and summons when it will only end up making itself look irrelevant in the scheme of things. Itse Sagay might be a lot of things but one thing he has going for him is a deep knowledge of the Nigerian constitution both as a legal practitioner and a leading academic in that field. I can almost bet that he will be releasing a statement before the end of today trashing the senate's summon and upbraiding the hell out of them."[/b] 12 Likes 1 Share |

I thought he was going to run to them just the way ABU Vice Chancellor ran to the senate ethics committee the other day to testify and make false declaration. He even gave his personal ceremonial gown to Dino in appreciation for the bank alert. 8 Likes |

I believe the current senate under Bukola Saraki is nothing but a collection of looters of their states and secondary school dropouts. Go down the list and you are instantly convinced. Now, I await my summons. Who is the ethics committee chairman? Senator Anyanwu. A Yahoo yahoo boy. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Oga sit down. That Itsekiri sell out is a slowpoke and he should be summoned to appear as I don't care if the senate is a rogue because the majority put them all in that house. My own is the reputation of the Senate itself and not the rogues called Senators janefarms2015: |

spartan117: Recently the US congress revoked a provision that prevented telecoms companies from selling user data to third parties. People are vocal in the media accusing the congressmen of being bought off. Individual names of members and the amounts supposedly contributed to their PACs are being bandied about. The US assembly has not summoned anyone. Congressmen and senators are daily acccused of corruption by combative constituents in town halls. So far no one has been summoned. Why should our assembly be different? Freedom of speech guarantees me the right to speak my mind about any public figure. Nass is an assembly of thieves, mediocres, rogues, illiterates, scallywags, buffoons, kleotomaniacs, greedy barons, criminals, convicts, and terrorists. Let any bastard senator say I've infringed his right. Bunch of childish clowns. 6 Likes 3 Shares |
