is that how Ohaneze Ndigbo wants to rule Nigeria?

Just check out how instability rocked the senate leadership when they produced d senate President during the early stage of the 4th republic.

Enwerem was indicted in corrupt charges, and was impeached

Okadigbo was impeached too

Wagbara too was indicted in monetary embezzlement scandal and he was forced to resign to avoid been disgraced out of office.

My Igbo brothers, r u sure we can rule Nigeria?

Those men disgraced us. Tufiakwa!!

How old are you?

Or else how you would have made the crass statements above. Who didn't witness Obasanjo's divide and rule government where the legislature was systematically emasculated through changing the leadership inexorably and preferring trumped up charges against same.

Were Audu Ogbe and Barnabas Gemade Igbomen? Or did they not suffer the same fate?

Please desist from talking what you don't know.

He is right in a way, Obasanjo only had a hand in Okadigbo's removal and not the others.
Senator Evans Ewerem won because Obasanjo backed him against Chuba Okadigbo in 1999. However, the process leading to his resignation of alleged changed of name from Evan to Evans is most ridiculous to say the least.

Senator Okadigbo who succeeded Ewerem as Senate President was falsely charged of corruption and impeached by his colleagues in the Senate-This move was backed by #Ewerem camp and Obasanjo who wasnt comfortable working with Okadigbo led Senate.

Senator Ayim Pius Ayim did well in the Senate as President. In all fairness, the Okadigbo-Ayim period as Senate President was the BEST since the present democratic dispensation.

Adolphus Wabara who became Senate President in 2003 was engaged in N50m Bribery scandal with then Education Minister Prof Fabian Osuji. It was Ribadu's EFCC was uncovered the deal. Other Senators was involved. Wabara resigned as Senate President, Fabian Osuji was fired as Minister. Before the scandal, Wabara was accused by his colleagues of financial misconduct and gross-misconduct, all accusation he denied, alleging that is was the Igbo Senators that are behind it because they wanted his position.

Then came Ken Nnamani, a mediocre Senate President at best. However, all Senate Presidents were better BY FARRRR MARGIN than the doofoos called David Mark.

Though, there was constant change in leadership, the Senate led by Okadigbo was by far the best, Next to that of Ayim Pius Ayim, Evans Ewerem, and mediocres Adolphus Wabara, Ken Nnamani plus HYPER MEDIOCRE David Mark.

I have no time for your inverted reasoning.

Ken Nnamani, the irrepressible, dynamic and indefatigable senate president who single-handedly deep-sixed/quashed Obasanjo's evil third term agenda is mediocre in your reckoning. Man, you need to see a head shrinker.

Maybe you were still in the cradle when Obasanjo was running Nigeria like a private fiefdom using his attack dog viz EFCC/Ribadu to whip dissenting voices into line.

Who didn't see the dark days of Obasanjo's civilian presidency infamous for monumental corruption and the use of the machineries of the state to rope in hapless public functionaries?

Ken Nnamani is the most resounding of all. I miss him in Naija politics. Okadigbo is the most vibrant of all too. Wagbara is a disgrace. Abeg, someone should remind Mark that Naija senate is not his village, it's time to rest, he has equally tried to stabilze the senate anyway undecided
