The minister also explained why the US envoy failed to attend before the House when he was summoned to present evidence on the charges of sexual misconduct against the three lawmakers. “You can’t summon an ambassador to appear before a national institution because he is the head of state of his country where he’s serving, and he enjoys sovereign immunity,” he said.

According to him, the act of inviting the US ambassador to appear before the House is actually bringing ridicule to the Nigerian House of Reps and shows a lack of understanding of diplomatic agreement.

This is a blatant lie.

What is the meaning of national institutions.

When they want to distort justice, they come up with illogical reasoning.

Countries issue summons on any ambassador at any time and any day through the foreign ministry.

Is the foreign ministry not a national institution?

The ambassador is lying.

They have gone from reps' attempted rape and soliciting for prostitutes to allegations of unruly behavior at the embassy.

Why did this foreign minister not issue the summons on the ambassador?

Why is he taking side with a foreign country in the cruel treatment of his own countrymen?

Must this foreign minister behave like a slave to the Americans?

Who does he represent? Nigerians or the Americans?

And as usual, the worshipers who have been boasting of US all-knowing, all-powerful, evidence wielding, omnipotent abilities are helping to divert the argument.

What are the lawmakers supposed to do?

When you make a complaints to your foreign ministry against a hostile embassy and the foreign ministry instead was perceived to be acting in the interest of the hostile country, what are you supposed to do? Fold your arm and watch your reputation go up in flames for nothing?

This is the same foreign minister who said that the "witness" the Americans relied on said she won't 'testify". Then why did he not get other so-called "evidences" from the Americans and present to the reps, after all, he is not above summons?

Why is he acting in the interest of the Americans in this case?

The national assembly should promptly call for the resignation of the traitor minister.

i find it amusing that most initial posters did not find it odd that the initial accusation for which the visas were revoked is now said to be untrue and a new accusation was brought up. very interesting.

Don't count on the intelligence of these people, they are mentally enslaved.

The allegations suddenly shifted from three Nigerian reps attempting to rape a chambermaid and soliciting for prostitutes on Americans soil to three Nigerian reps acting in an unruly manner at the American embassy in Abuja, Nigeria and the mentally enslaved won't still see anything amiss.

It is typical of we black people.

It is a shame!
