Seadogs Condemn Show of Shame in N’Assembly 27 Jun 2015 Font Size: a / A N’Assembly The National Association of Seadogs, Pyrates Confraternity, has expressed deep sadness over the chaos that has engulfed both chambers of the National Assembly recently over issues bordering on sharing of principal positions in both chambers. Condemning what they described as a 'show of shame' displayed by these members, its President Worldwide, Prince Ifeanyi Onochie, in a press statement released in Calabar on Friday, wondered if the display of immaturity coming from National Assembly members was the change Nigerians voted for. According to Onochie “How honourable could they now be if in the discharge of their duties of making laws for the betterment of society, they start exchanging blows instead of ideas,” he pointed out that for Nigeria to move forward as a Nation, we must have the courage to distance the business of party politics from that of governance. He called on the National Assembly members to concentrate fully on the reasons they were sent to the legislative houses, amongst which was to provide enabling laws that would guarantee quality leadership, development and nation building. The Association urged the legislators to sheath their swords and digest the good counsel of the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara when he said: “The people of Nigeria want to hear us talk about poverty, insecurity, unemployment and as long as the house is divided and not united, we cannot achieve that. We have been down this perilous road before. I plead of us as Hon members and as leaders that all hands must be on deck to enable us achieve the desired unity that will help us move this house forward. That is the responsibility we owe.“ Seadogs consequently implored the lawmakers to use the opportunity provided by the adjournment of plenary to resolve all issues and spare Nigerians this sordid spectacle of yet again watching them turn ...... http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/seadogs-condemn-show-of-shame-in-n-assembly/213203/ |

Our National assembly is actually a big shame to our budding democracy. |

NAS always a step ahead,always pro-active and very responsive to national issues,i thought this is what a fraternity is all about...in other climes,fraternities are meant to be watch dogs of the society because of the available human resources in their hands,they are also meant to be a leadership training institute,where the spirit of chivalry,comradeship and discipline are promoted. I guess in Nigeria seadogs has set a standard akin to what is obtainable in higher climes. The problem with fraternities in Nigeria is actually the pseudo-fraternities,that is the later day fraternities that came up after Pyrates. They are so drawn into the battle for supremacy and hence lost focus on what fraternity shld mean in its real sense. Kudos to NAS for putting the pressure on the national assembly,i hope NLC and other civil right groups would follow suit. lets keep the pressure on,our politicians must be answerable to the masses. |

ahamonyeka: Mumu, why is he contradicting himself , In 1952, future- Nobel Prize winning author Wole Soyinka and a group of six friends formed the Pyrate Confraternity at the elite University College, Ibadan, then part of the University of London. [1] According to the Pyrates, the "Magnificent Seven", as they called themselves, observed that the university was populated with wealthy students associated with the colonial powers and a few poorer students striving in manner and dress to be accepted by the more advantaged students, while social life was dictated by tribal affiliation. [2] Soyinka would later note that the Pyrates wanted to differentiate themselves from "stodgy establishment and its pretentious products in a new educational institution different from a culture of hypocritical and affluent middleclass, different from alienated colonial aristocrats".

mistabiola:....as time passed by,those poor students of yester-years,graduated and probably,due to their back-ground as seadogs,where well prepared for the bigger society out there and hence some became very great in their choosen profession.But what may ve distinguish them from other elites,is that inspite of their present social heights,they still use their resources to fight for the commoners,trying to create a sort of egalitarian society where the strong protects the weak. Just may be,that explains why many Nigerian social rights crusaders are either Pyrates or seems to associate with the group.Pls,dont ask me how i got to know,google is your friend. |
