“These lawmakers need know this and be decorous!. That fellow that was blatantly disrespectful to Okonjo-Iweala may not in the real world qualify to be her Research Assistant. Let’s face facts,” she said.

It is pity that some people always think of themselves more highly than they ought to. It goes to show by how much those that have various leadership position in Nigeria love Nigeria one bit less.

Madam Oby should realize that there is nothing new under the sun, and I wonder what and who she thinks NOI is that she cannot be grilled by the Nigerian people, of whom the legislators symbolizes.

My brother these ones are still suffering and smiling as usual! Imagine if PM&Q was to be held in Nigeria every week, only God knows what these lackeys would be screaming.
The Minister lied, brought no proof that she was sick, no Doctors letter, nothing, yet even though the committee chairman was being lenient with Her, She had the guts to still open Her mouth.
am always over-joyed to see comments of intellects,thank you for the wonderful comments,Firstly if you read thru my aforementioned i clearly stated that it is really rude and disappointing that an Ex minister can openly express her rubbish rant on a social network and the am suprise by her obnoxious statement of comparing a Serving legislative member to a research Assistant of a minister,i dont understand how people dont see that as an insult to the people and government cos it means we voted in a Below-average individual to run the affairs of the Govt

How do you criticize and demean other people then turn around and do the same thing you are blasting and criticizing them for?

Talk about gross cluelessness, thoughtlessness and hypocrisy.

Sad to know this ignorant and mindless woman used to be a federal minister.
Dude, it will be nothing short of a miracle if anybody in your ancestry(Both past and present) can match half this woman's intelligence! Bloody Hater!

Aventura, you're an ogogoro drinkard. The minister was trying to dudge the questions to be asked by saying she had health challenges. Why did she then say she should be asked the questions? If the honourable members had gone ahead to ask her questions and she fvcked up, as Fijiano had said, it would have been blamed on them for knowing her health and still asking her question.
oya you that is a hennesy drinker: how can you dodge something that you are not scared of. Okay let's put it this way.

When you dodge something or someone, you are avoiding that thing or somebody for reasons best known to you.....aventura's dictionary.... cool


So going by this description, she couldn't have thought of dodging the questions because in her capacity as an economics and financial guru, she is more than capable of answering any question fielded by the primary-six-school-leaving-certificate parliamentarian.

So you see my friend, it doesn't add up. I think it was the parliamentarian who was trying to avoid embarrassment from those questions because a lot questions would be asked in it's aftermath.


Questions like;
where did he school?
what did he major in?
how authentic is his certificate?

Toronto-certificate parliamentarian comes to mind. grin

If I may ask you people, what has the so called intelligence of NOI brought to Nigeria or the world? Being bookwarm does not translate to being street smart!

Yes she got degrees in prestigious University, and so some of us do. Yes She worked with world bank as an employee, albeit, executive employee, so some of us do. However, She given a test and She failed woefully the first time, and now Shes failing on a proportion that Her resume would be ignored by any of the major global financial institutions.

So tell me, what can you credit Her intelligence to in Nigeria as far as the economic advancement of Nigeria is concerned? Do not tell me She initiated the Debt relief because we now know better what transpired as far as the Paris club debt is concerned.

Finally, NOI is not bigger than any institutions in Nigeria and She's not the most clever minister that have held of the position of minister of finance in Nigeria, so give us a break.

Hehe... it is obvious you have not worked in an establishment where proper work place codes and ethics are in place and are enforced. The minister, having admitted to being sick ought to have sent a letter from an approved physician to the HOR, and a confirmation from the appropriate quarters she is answerable granting her leave to be absent from duty.

That you verbally claim to be sick is no justification for any one to believe or admit your words as being the truth. I know in Nigeria, anything goes, but FYI, when you work with a Fortune 100 company, this is the standard expected of you and you have little or no option. In fact it is part of your employment contract package and you are expected to be abide by it.

Hehe... Skye bank ke? You see, most of you have very little exposure that is why you still see someone working in world bank as high heaven. There are many Nigerians working in places of high intellect, and they do not make so much noise about their achievements.

FYI, I have no hatred toward NOI, all everyone is asking is, she should focus on her job and do it properly, else she can as well return back to the same world bank for which we know her resume is now condemned to the dustbin of history - i.e. she has no chance of being re-admitted to that place.

Every working professional knows you are only as relevant as the latest achievement and success you create and that yesterdays news of success is only an indication of a potential.

Anyway, she looks like she has down syndrome - so I can't really blame her.

Coupled with the innate victim-card syndrome, then you would have a double whammy of stupidity.

Just tell her to go provide answers to the 50 questions. End of.

So, just to make a point, you had to insult ALL people with down syndrome? Some of you Yoruba posters are nothing more than pure goats.
I STRONGLY doubt that any Igbo poster would be so callous and dumb.
The women you are insulting have risen to career levels that your entire generation will never attain. FACT. You are here foaming in the mouth like a goat getting ready to be slaughtered for sallah.

There surely must be something about having worked at the world bank that makes these two women believe they have attained god-like status and must be worshipped wherever they go. Respect is reciprocal and it's not just in saying it, but acting it. Mrs Ezekwesili's description of a legislator as no better than a "research assistant" just shows the mindset and the contempt she and her ilk have for people in that office.
I have watched the video of the exchange between madam minister and Mr. Committee chairman and all I can see is a woman who came to d session with an "am doing y'all a huge favour by gracing you with my presence" attitude and a man who was determined to have none of that. She claimed she was ill and she was asked to go with the questions, provide written answers and return in January. What else did the minister want to say?
In my opinion she was just as guilty as the legislator in the uproar that resulted. This isn't about politics.

Oby is actually one of the good guys but she goofed on this, in a responsible society, the members of the HOR command respect and ministers can never ever talk to them that way. The idea that you hold a Phd. from a prestigious institution does not give you the right to talk down on people.
