Behold Our Very Own Honourables by chizgold80: 7:11pm On Dec 23, 2019
Most Nigerians are ingrates, in the matter of the renovation of the Nigerian National Assembly building. It appears most of us don't know and don't want to know what it takes to be a lawmaker and what lawmaking entails. Oh, yes. It, lawmaking, requires high intelligence and therefore, only the very cerebral make it into the hallowed chambers of the National Assembly.

My people, didn't you hear Napoleon, in Orwell's Animal Farm, making a case for the rulers, under the political doctrine of all animals are equal but some are more equal than others? Napoleon submitted that rulers, as our legislators are, are entitled exclusively to eggs and milk. You dare ask me why? Napoleon said that it is because of the brain work they magnanimously do for the people whom they rule.

Just because these selfless legislators, who are austere in their lifestyle, decided to patriotically propose to expend a mere thirty-seven billion naira on the renovation of the National Assembly Complex. We are simply petty.

Who are you to complain about that amount being humongous when the anti-corruption Czar, General Muhammadu Buhari, in his infinite wisdom, gleefully endorsed it? Many of us are full of spite and hate for the mighty president. And that's why the hate speech law is appropriate.

Our distinguished lawmakers should be provided with a heaven-like chamber. God does not live in a house built with hands. Though they are not God but they are next to God and so, they deserve to be in a place whose description has not been heard, nor seen, or entered into the heart of men. They are not mere mortals; they are gods.

I'm hoping and praying that someone, whether amongst them or from us, would move a bill to be made law, to the effect that they should be entitled, at the full expense of our commonwealth, to special spoons. These spoons would have state of the art technology to be able to detect poison and death. Yes, these are honourable, distinguished legislators, who don't deserve any discomfort or anything that may predispose them to danger, peril or hurt. Yes, like a Nigerian ex-governor, overfed with power, as governor, once spluttered, that whenever he's sick, the state is sick too. And he's right, that's authority speaking; it's the rule (or ruin, if you like) of power; rule of law is meant for Lilliputians like me and you.

Buhari okayed a project; or you don't know him? Check out his credentials. He's the only one who possesses what even the gods lack: the spectacle to detect the least modicum of corruption, even when it is yet to be conceived.

Due to the high premiums of security placed on the lives of these legislators, far above those of faceless common Nigerians, all the materials and workers, that would be utilized in the renovation must be sourced overseas. They are honourable men and women, who are selflessly serving us. And what do they get in return? Nothing!

I think someone should move a motion or bill that our legislators should just remain in office till death; in fact, we should pass a law quickly, forbidding death from touching anyone of them. They are our national symbol. You remember the patriotism of ex-governors and their deputies? How they passed the law that gave them access to huge amounts of money, cars and houses? They are honourable people, they have served the nation wella! Oh, you are thinking about common pensioners? Those ones never served meritoriously, that's why they die on the queues waiting for the crumbs they call pensions. There are lords and there are midgets.

You just hate people who are doing great for themselves, and that is why you are suggesting that there are roads, hospitals, etc to be fixed. The comfort of these legislators and their ilk is of the most important national interest.

Hahaha. Op your sarcasm is intruging. The part that got me cracked up was when you said Buhari can detact corruption even before it happens. But on a serious note you're absolutly right, they are gods and we are mortals, hence who are we to battle against them? No matter how much we cry to the high heavens, it only gets higher, ask the likes of Sowore who dared battle the higher equals.
