Omo-Agege: Pro-Buhari Senator to be expelled from Senate NEWS DIGEST – Senator Ovie Omo-Agege representing Delta central, will be expelled from the senate. The Detail reports that the senate committee on ethics and privileges had recommended his expulsion from the senate, and his prosecution. On April 18, Omo-Agege was alleged to have led thugs into the senate chamber and seized the mace. He was said to have led the thugs into the chamber while a plenary session was in progress. The thugs allegedly assaulted some national assembly staff before getting away with the mace. The mace was later recovered under a bridge in Abuja. The lawmaker had been, a week before the incident, suspended for alleged anti-legislature claims. Omo-Agege had alleged that the election sequence re- ordering bill was targeted at President Muhammadu Buhari. The senator was arrested but released a few hours after the attack. Omo-Agege, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), when expelled will be the first senator to be so removed in 12 legislative years.

Nonsense, he can't be expelled, do they wanna leave the people he is representing without any representative in the senate

good move this is democracy in action

I don't think the Senate has the power to expell an elected senator.

That's like saying that Buhari has the power to expell Osibanjo

They no born them Well

But who stole the mace? If he's guilty he has no business being in the senate if he didnt then there is problem in the country and to think that the mace was found under the bridge is

The Senate does not have the powers. Only a competent court or the constituency

confusion everywhere.
ali ndume commited a treasonable offence months back rather he was suspended for some month....
cant this senate allow the court to perform there constitutional duty ne?

Saraki's illegality is what will consume him last last. Expelling a senator is tantamount to expelling the senators constituency from democratic representation at the senate. It is illegal, unconstitutional, undemocratic, autocratic, demonic and absolutely unnecessary. It is time for the reasonable people in the senate to stand up and tell saraki that enough is enough.

Good they should send that delta thug (omo-agege) home, he won't there to represent the people not a party

You think they do not know.
When they do that, they expect him to go to court, knowing how long it takes justice to be dispensed in this country, the case will drag on till 2019.
Politicians are smarter than you think when it concerns them even when it looks like their action is dumb on face value.

I am not supporting the senator but this move is tyrannical on its own on the part of the senate. They have virtually tried to silence anyone with a different view to their leadership which is normal in a democratic setting.
What is wrong is wrong.
How can someone elected by his constituent to represent them be expelled by another colleague who was also elected by his constituent?
What the senate should have done was to take him to the judiciary and then he can be expelled by the court.

If u support this then u have to beg sarrki, Madrid guy and co for all the insults hauled at them for supporting Buhari.

Under bridge? But who did we offend in this country?

To be replaced by Omo-where

Perhaps you may need to ready my post again to get my point, there is no way on earth I would be supporting such tyranny, as a matter of fact I had open a thread sometime ago on the topic here
