You just wrote like an idiot because you don't read the news. When you start following national issues properly, you'll be well informed before you come here to type rubbish.
Chicagograduate:
There was no investigation of Akpabio s budget padding before Ningi was suspended.He was not summon to defend the allegation in the floor of the senate chamber like they do during ministerial screening and budget defence.
Akpabio is a thief.

Ah! The kind of undiluted stupidity some of you display on this nairaland eh!

Do you even know how the legislative arm of government operates or how decisions are made in the senate compared to the executive arm?

People like us can easily know somebody's nature from their comments. Looking at this your comments, I can tell that you are either extremely and incurably stupid and ignorant or you are just being mischievous and dishonest or a combination of all of the above


malali:
Thats how you know a weak leader.

Tinubu did not say Nigerians removed oil subsidy, not me.

Tinubu did not say Nigerians removed dollar subsidy, not me.

Tinubu did not say Nigerians removed electricity tariffs, not me.

When e reach Akpabio turn, he bucked and defaulted the blame to "The senate"

Akpabio you are in charge of the senate, anything that happens in the senate, you shoud be able to defend it with logical explanations. Not passing the buck to others.Those are signs of a weak leader.

There's no country that have the kind of citizens we have without having wicked leaders. This man exposed official corruption within the budget and got suspended yet citizens kept quite...I thought what the senate should have done will be to clear the areas he raised...explaining to citizens how such huge amounts allocated to same areas repeatedly will be implemented without any corrupt practices...or acknowledge the error within the budget and remove the padded part of the budget...suspending a senator who came to the chamber of senate the same way u guys came in .without clear evidence of error in what he said is undemocratic and evil...yet the so called friends of the country (enemies in disguise) won't see anything wrong with what the senate did to one of their own...others have now decided to avoid, talking about what they know about the budget.same budget which impart will be felt by the citizens and residents of this great nation ...



You think the man really open corruption or ethnicity jingoism.

Go back and read carefully about his revelation, when you finally do that, I will also advise you to go deeper to last admistation to check what he accused the current senate if the last senate in which he was part of not did more than that for north

Removing Ningi was not in good taste, the Senate at that point were serving themselves. They are there to serve the people, they are the representatives of the people. A self serving Senate has no good use for the people, this is why Nigerians are not seeing benefits from the Senate.

How can a senate, a house of debate, reason, to find out truths be acting in an arbitrary, albeit dictatorship manner, the Senate members can not take criticisms from Nigerians who they represent?

Nigerian senators have the wrong orientation, they have the big man mentality which is wrong, their work is to represent the people, they are obliged to listen to the people and correct issues and unethical behavior, by ensuring every kobo of constituency allowances is used for the people, not ordering him out of the chambers...it's undemocratic.

Laurene:
Which law is that? Which part of the constitution?
If there's any, there should be a process where the matter is debated and deliberated before a vote call is brought to the floor where it's decided.

Not some bunch of agbada-wearing fascists deciding to disenfranchise quarter of a state's electorate.
Not everything is about the constitution.
A constitution is just a broad guide not a full bible of specific laws.

For example, there is no constitution that says you can't take a pig to the plenary
or dress naked but if you do, you will be barred from entering and may even risk
suspension.

Ningi was giving the chance to defend himself


Ningi, who brought various documents to defend himself said he never said the budget bwas padded but insisted that N 3 trillion is not traced to any project in the 2024 bugget.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/businessday.ng/news/article/senate-in-rowdy-session-over-2024-budget-allegations/%3famp=1

Ningi later got the arithmetic and denied what he said, but it was too late for him.

A Senator is at the Senate not by himself but to represent his people. When you suspend him, then you are denying his people o representation which is against the Constitution. You cannot punish the people for any percieved offense of their senator.

Falana's Letter clearly stated the facts but Akpabio and his lawyers are trying to be smart. Falana quoted Court ruling, judgements and Acs that could easily be verified which Akpabio's lawyers couldn't contradict but rather chose to say he didn't quote specifics of the case. Why didn't they quote the specifics and contradict his position since the Law and Judgements are clearly cited?
