Archbishop condemns Reps for jumping over NASS gate


The Catholic Archbishop of Lagos, Most Rev. Alfred Martins, on Monday expressed disgust at the behaviour of some members of the House of Representatives for jumping over the gate of the National Assembly Complex.

Martins said in Lagos that the lawmakers ought to have restrained themselves from throwing decorum to the wind, no matter the level of provocation.

“It gives us a lot of concern that the officials of the National Assembly have to climb the fence in order to arrive at what is supposed to be a hallowed chamber.

“It’s, indeed, a disgrace to the whole nation; it’s a real disgrace to the whole process of governance as represented in the legislative arm of government.

“And I think that whatever it is that lead to it should not have happened at all because it doesn’t give us confidence that the security forces are going to get right the whole process of elections that are forthcoming next year.

“Legislators should recognise their dignity as legislators, and therefore whatever it is that is disagreement among them should not go to such an extent.

“They are representing the whole nation as well as individual citizens within Nigeria.

“And herefore, whatever their disagreements are they should not in any way let it go to this kind of extent that we saw. I think that, that portends a lot of danger for the nation.”

Oga Archbishop, agreed the so called honourables became dishonourables by scaling the gate on Thursday. It became necessary for them to the needful to avoid Wednesday's ungodly episode in Ekiti where 7 member sat and impeached the speaker and deputy speaker. Imagine they law makers quietly turned back and went home, the next thing we would have heard was 97 members (same ration that sat and impeached in Ekiti) has impeached the speaker of the house of representative, and the president and PDP would have congratulated the new speaker, the same way Fayose congratulated the new Ekiti speaker.

Oga Bishop, please criticize in a godly manner and always say the gospel truth in every circumstances. When the adulterous woman was taken or chased to Jesus, and Jesus was told that she committed adultery, and the accusers were waiting for Jesus to condemn her for her action, Jesus didn't, he rather told any of her accusers to cast his/her stone, if he/she has no or committed a sin.

Sir, before you castigate some people of taking an ungodly action(s), ask the other party whether they have not committed a similar sin or ungodly action.

TANkid preacher!

They should have held their peace and allowed what happened in Ekiti to play out in the National Assembly, right?

By their sermons we shall know them.
