The difference between the 2 lawyers is clear. Falana cited references in Tony momoh Vs the Senate, to show that the Senate or any Parliament has no right to arbitrarily summon anyone especially to settle political scores. At best the Senate can sue for libel. On Ndume's suspension, Falana cited Dino melaye Vs the house of representatives to show that the house has no power to suspend a lawmaker for even a single day. There are already precedents for these cases. The courts have already interpreted Mike Ozekhome's postulations. Ozekhome is acting and behaving like he doesn't read legal reports. Besides, anything he says is morally tainted since he has corruption cases with the EFCC for money laundering pending in court.

God bless you jare

See them quoting nonsense on sane people's comment

That's the problem with ur ilks, u lack intelligent and analytical reasoning.
Government affairs is not based on discretion, it entirely based on provisions of the constitution. And these provisions must be strictly adhered to. That's the more reason why constitution is being amended on a regular basis. If you don't have enough knowledge of how government operates its better you keep quiet.

Geeoriginal:

"Yoloba people" has stood against bad governance and government in this country more than any other group. I don't know if you were born during the military, if yes, you will understand that what you said above is completely wrong. The Femi Falana you are referencing here has been to jail many times because of his stand concerning government. Where is Fela, Gani Fawehinmi, Tai Solarin etc. from? They are the people that have look guns in the face and still continue to maintain their stand. Which other tribe has produced this type of men in their great numbers?

I even worked for Awo for three days. Those you mentioned actually did all the actions but that was when tribal sentiment was not made pronounced as it is today. Tinubi, because of GEJ, arranged with the hausas, pulled and voted him out. You will agree with me that going by the force of those votes by the Yorubas was very terrible. We have never recorded that hate and sentimental votes. This was the time when tribal matters came up. As it is today, it is now purely tribal. Imagine some young yoruba lawyers now openly talk against, with high degree of bitterness, because Buhari has abandoned Tinubi and almost the entire Yorubas ethnic group.
But you nor mention late Rotomi Wialliams, one of most popular lawyers I accused of only working for government. What about that?

freeze001:
Does Falana mean that the NASS does not or cannot have an internal disciplinary mechanism applicable to its members? Is that not what the independence of the NASS is about? Is he also going to say the NJC has no power to investigate petitions made on judges and make its pronouncements before further action is taken because they are also subject to the provisions of the Constitution?

The NASS must be and is in fact able to activate an internal investigation and disciplinary mechanism for its members particularly on the conduct of any member as in the case of Ali Ndume.

Stop saying rubbish talk joor.is senator Ali ndume elected by the senate president or by the people of borno.did he write a formal petition about the case in hand? Is he d one who wrote the article about senator Gino melaye's certificate?
Y u guys just say rubbish talk only cus of bad blood.
