Those who think they own Nigeria are getting more and more scared by the day. Other people have overlooked their excesses over the years and they see it as weakness. Now people are getting more concerned about how they are governed and they have no choice unless they want the country divided which is their greatest fear.

These men and delay tactics.

Didn't Ekweremmadu did same thing?

Or is it now a tradition that anyone who is a deputy senate president now organises public hearing for Constitutional review?

Going through same practice over and over again...

I guess next deputy senate president will organize his own public hearing...

Omo-Agege should look for something serious and be doing...
The deputy senate president and deputy speaker is always the chairman of constitutional review committee of their respective chambers. Legal or illegal, I don't know, but that's has been the custom.

We have lost confidence in politicians. This is just an avenue to reduce tension. Watch how they will kill it but this will be the last because more prominent voices have added to the struggle. Fulani must fall

The Constitution they believe they are amending is a rejected constitution.


It’s a way for Deputy Senate Presidents to eat.


Right from Obasanjo era after 1999.
