t was Quite a rare display of grandiloquence at the Red Chamber when Senator Chomaroke Nnamani poure encomiumds on Jeoffery Onyeama during the Senate screening. I watched this episode where the foreign Affairs Minister was being grilled, and the devastating blows he gave to marathon questions in his characteristic unassuming nature.

Though the entire screening had been described as a fiat accompli and a charade of some sort, something struck my thoughts while Geoffrey was being quizzed; why did Ekweremadu, after his brief accolade desist from asking for same privilege he sought for Goddy Agba the Petroleum Ministerial nominee from Cross River? Could his passive statement that Onyeama is from an 'opposite' party, while eulogizing his achievements have clarified this? This is politics of bitterness in the most callous way. Even an arc enemy from same state would have asked that Onyeama should take a bow like the rest.

Truly, Nnamani saved the day. My respect for him got reinvigorated. Watch the psychology; he stood to erode Ekweremadu's tacky accolades on Onyeama. He forcefully embellished the Enugu and Waawa political pedigree, with the consciousness of a man struggling to redeem a feat. You needed to see even some charlatans among the nominees and the ease with which they were accorded these privileges with overwhelming ovations even at the instance of Ekweremadu. I think Ebe Ano political giant saved our face.
