5 Controversial Politicians Heading To The Senate by Mickop(m): 1:56pm On Mar 30, 2015
1. Stella Oduah: The former minister of Aviation has won the
Anambra North Senatorial
district elections in her home
state. Oduah had been dropped
from President Jonathan’s
cabinet last year after she allegedly approve without
following due process, the
purchase of two BMW
armoured cars for N255 million
by the National Civil Aviation
Authority (NCAA). Political analysts will keep an eye on the
beautiful PDP chieftain as she
makes her way to the upper
chamber.
2. Buruji Kashamu: The bulky Ogun state PDP chieftain has
won majority votes in the Ogun
east senatorial district,
comprising nine local councils,
Kashamu is allegedly wanted in
the United States in connection with drug offences. He has also
been having a running political
battle with former president
Olusegun Obasanjo for
sometime now. He was also
accused by the All Progressives Congress for
participating in the alleged
rigging of the Ekiti state
gubernatorial elections last
year.

3. Theodore Orji: The governor of Abia state is a
case-study in incompetency.
Widely regarded as the worst
governor in Nigeria, many are
baffled how the governor
defeated the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA)
Candidate, Barrister Ahamdi
Nweke who came second. The
governor who gets booed each
time he steps out in public
gatherings will no doubt get a reality check when he vacates
the Abia state government
house on the 29th of May 2015.
4. Godswill Akpabio: Unlike Orji, Akpabio is a proven
performer in governance. But
his greatest undoing is his
extreme uncouth political
statements, coupled with his
obvious disdain for the opposition which has made him
commit so many political
blunders. Very unpopular
outside his state, his role in the
Nigeria Governors Forum crisis
is well documented. Akpabio is one man that get carried away
easily and literally talks without
thinking.

5. Jonah Jang: From appointing his son as a
commissioner, to being used to
destabilise the Nigerian
Governors Forum and his in-
ability to restore law and order
in his home state, Plateau state governor is one politician who
has seen it all , but yet, has no
positive political achievements.
Jang is at best known for his
biased and often times careless
statements especially as regards the constant insecurity
in his home-state which he has
failed to curb.
In a related development, the
governor of Niger state, Aliyu Babangida has lost his bid to be
elected as a senator as he lost by a wide margin to the APC
candidate.

7. Temipre Alamesigha (not sure of the spelling)

I would love to see what thief Orji will be doing at the Senate. That House is turning into pension fund for our Governors.
