I've always known that you don't reason any better than slowpoke (if at all u are not one).
Going through my post,you will realise that am indifferent about the flood,my concern is the nature of the buildings and the environment as a whole

Absuchat:
Flood is not a crime,it happens even in the 1st world countries, but if you have eyes,check out the building in the pictures, compare and contrast it with what we have in ogun state flood pictures

Corpse, buildings washed away in Onitsha flood




A corpse was washed away yesterday in Onitsha, Anambra State, following a downpour that wreaked havoc in the commercial city of the state.
Two buildings under construction were also said to have collapsed in Owelle Aja area of Obosi while vehicles, houses and properties were destroyed.

Daily Trust gathered that traders at the Onitsha International Electronics Market were adversely affected by the flood, as most areas of the market were submerged.
Speaking to newsmen, the Financial Secretary of the market, Onyeka Azubike, who said the source of the corpse was yet to be ascertained, attributed the cause of the flood to blocked drainage system.

They did so not so long ago with the Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), when they harangued the man with questions and it seemed they were more patriotic than the minister.

What happened between Fashola and the lawmakers is like the vacuous quarrel between husband and wife in which outsiders wonder over their pettifogging over inconsequentials. But the real issue is known only to the sparring spouses.

Hardball learned that the lawmakers had requested Fashola’s ministry to fund their overseas trips, and the minister did not agree. He said he did not want to contravene the protocol of this democracy that forbade one arm of government to fund another. The minister had wounded their vanity.

They also bombarded him with scores and scores of companies for contracts. The minister said they did not bid and it was against the protocol of due process to grant any such deals. They also wanted to acquire a high percentage of the contracts for rural electrification of the universities, and again the minister said no.

The Senate and its younger cousin, The House of Representatives, have a fashion of summoning ministers, heads of agencies and chief executives of sensitive companies. The chambers’ committees then assume the toga of a monarch, tossing questions at the invitees as though addressing a school boy.


They pose for the press, speak with grandiose morality and dramatise an ownership of protocol. For instance, in the last visit of members of the National Assembly to the office of the Comptroller-General of Customs, Hameed Ali, they expected the Customs chief to walk down to receive them on their arrival.

But the old soldier was not a man to bait. He retorted that he was not a jellyfish to be tossed about and insisted that the lawmakers were received according to protocol. After all, it was not as if the agency did not assign its officials to receive them. The legislative comedian, Dino Melaye, roared his protest over what he saw as an act of institutional contempt

The man of Customs had to remind them of their earlier sins when he visited. No one treated him with such courtesy. In one word, the lawmakers were hypocrites. They do so all the time. They invite heads of agencies, even for inconsequential reasons

There is no way Saraki will wish Nigeria well and work for the progress of the country. This is why in a saner clime, once Saraki is facing a criminal charge in court, he ought to have stepped down as Senate President. My people says that you dont come back from court and remain friends with your adversaries. Saraki is delaying. Nigeria budget among many other things due to selfish reasons.

Contempt of Congress

Definition

Congress has the authority to hold a person in contempt if the person's conduct or action obstructs the proceedings of Congress or, more usually, an inquiry by a committee of Congress.

Contempt of Congress is defined in statute, 2 U.S.C.A. § 192, enacted in 1938, which states that any person who is summoned before Congress who "willfully makes default, or who, having appeared, refuses to answer any question pertinent to the question under inquiry" shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a maximum $1,000 fine and 12 month imprisonment.

Before a Congressional witness may be convicted of contempt, it must be established that the matter under investigation is a subject which Congress has constitutional power to legislate.

Generally, the same Constitutional rights against self-incrimination that apply in a judicial setting apply when one is testifying before Congress.

You are a dunce ,get out of my face .

Jackass!

Can you tell your parents they are childish?

M.oron!!

Twy:
Actually, you guys do not understand how the law can be interpreted. Falana wrote “The only other occasion where a public officer can be summoned by the National Assembly is when proceedings are ongoing to expose corruption (Section 88) and when a law is being debated either with a view to amending it or to have a new law entirely.”

He interpreted that section to mean when the legislature is investigating corruption. To be honest, that section is ambiguous and it will be left to a court to determine the limitations of a summons. Both side can interpret it as they wish. A strict interpretation will likely result in what Falana said and loose interpretation may favor the senate.

And when did the police make up any arm of the government..... Tell us Mr quotasystem Education

activistjohnny:
ipob are freedom fighters and not terrorists OK. they never institute war in all the villages in the south east zone. there's no idp camps in South east states. so what are you talking about.

Pierohandsome:
I disagree with Falana on this, Senate cn summon the president not to talk of ordinary IGP .

The Senate arm is for checks and balances, the IGP is an appointee who is answerable to the people and can be summoned by the people thru the senate.

Mr Falana, i disagree with u on this.
