Shehu Sani Explains Why Senators, Including Opposition Members, Fear Suspension by NairaOcean: 4:52pm On Mar 12
This tweet from Shehu Sani sheds light on the severe consequences of suspension in the Nigerian Senate.

Suspension in the Senate means a Senator will not be allowed to attend the plenary and will be prohibited from attending committee meetings and participating in oversight functions. His Salary, allowances and all entitlements will be blocked. He will not have access to his office and he is expected not to be seen within the premises of the National Assembly, until the suspension is lifted. When I publicly disclosed the salaries and running costs of lawmakers, it was the then Senate president who saved me from Suspension. If you talk too much, your bodi go tell you, that is why even opposition no fit oppose too much.

But which kind yeye democratic system we dey run for this country?

A senator is a representative of his constituents; they are the ones who voted for him to represent them at the national level. Why should fellow senators suspend a senator thereby preventing him from carrying out legislative duties which his constituents sent him there to do?

Senators suspending their fellow senator because they do not agree with him on an issue should not be allowed by law. Why prevent him from carrying out his legislative duty when u didn't vote him into senate in the first place?

Ningi's case is not about opposition talking but about him lying without proofs and setting up a coup against Akpabio.

More of this public shame is expected from the upper chamber.
The Senate has a thief that is not clever for a Senate president.
If they don't pad budgets I wonder how they make the billions they go there to look for.

Exactly what it is...a senate president that isn't wise.

The way he talks carelessly, it's same way he'll steal without discretion.

That lack of discretion will be his downfall, not even opposition politics

Did Senator Ningi lie ?

Are the senators ready to deny getting 500 million for constituency projects ?

Are we fighting corruption with corrupt legislators ?

Who investigates the senators ? Our corruption agencies need to be multi-party !

EFCC should have PDP Interests, APC and Labor party Interests as well.

This one party senate for 8 years, are looting and embezzling more than anything else, without any checks and balances ?

Senator Mendez was found to be corrupt in New jersey USA, and will go to trial.

Nigerian senators breed and feed corruption as untouchables. This has to change. Senaor Ningi should be called back immediately.

A multi-party investigation should be carried out.

You cannot suspend someone because he accused you of corruption, thats Kangaroo politics.

There is a perfect phrase for this:

TYRANNY OF THE MAJORITY!!!

when the majority clearly agrees to punish a member who dares to expose their évil ways

Someone said Ningi should approach the court..

I say he should carry his cross as he's one of those who contributed in building this rotten
system.. and also that would amount to legislative suicide for him.. and the power that be would ensure that the court process is first of all frustrated and the substantive matter won't be heard in the next 6 months whereas the suspension is only for 3months..
