Every institution and organization has their rules and code of conduct which may supersede your individual right if out of conviction you decide to be a memeber, you might have to give up some individual rules.

For example in the the military and the civil service of Nigeria,indivials of these organizations are not allowed to hold traditional titles or positions while they are still in service,are you going to say their rights of association has been infringed upon in this context?

I hope I am made my self elementary enough for your single digit cerebral capacity to discern.
You clearly have a blind agenda here.....I guess, you believe the High Court and the Appeal Court are wrong on this subject having reached a ruling that invalidates your position?

Because, of your efforts to justify your blindness, you keep burying yourself under unnecessary rubbish....There are no rules in the Military that abridges any Nigerian Citizen's right...There is the Armed Forces ACT that is annexed to the constitution and it is the law and the Military is guided by laws enacted in the Armed Forces ACT...All their rules must be in conformity with the ACT. The ACT clarifies and expand upon what is in the Constitution and is in line with it....The Senate cannot make any law or ACT that invalidates the constitution, the Courts will strike that ACT down, if anyone challenges it.

There are no law or ACT stating that the Senate or Senate Committee have the power to suspend another Senator. Yes they can have ethic committee and proffer rules and regulations that bids them together, and can also come up with disciplinary actions to straighten erring members; An Appeal Court have ruled that Suspension as a disciplinary action violates the rights of the constituents been represented and as we speak, that ruling is the LAW OF THE LAND, until the Senates appeals to the Supreme Court and obtain a reversal....The Appeal Court was not even concern about the right of the Senator being suspended, rather it was the right of the constituents that has been deprived of representation...meaning the injured party when a Senator is suspended are the citizens in his ward and state, who now lack representation granted them by the constitution.

There are many ways to punish erring Senate members without violating the Appeal Court ruling, if you hit them where is pains most e.g. their pocket book, remove them from committee appointments, stripe them off seniority, take privileges away from them, etc.

The Senate on Wednesday suspended Senator Ali Ndume for six months for raising false allegations against the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and Dino Melaye through order 14 and 15 at plenary last week.

The suspension follows report of Senator Samuel Anyanwu-led committee on Public Petitions, Ethics and Privileges which recommended for his suspension for one legislative year.

(I'm using the green highlights so u won't say your garri affected eyes didn't allow u to see oo)

I guess u were still in your cave or u were still in diapers for that year.

You have no inkling of an idea of the topic u just want to feel among,next time use that thing between your ears before u quote me cos you are obviously intellectual bankrupt.
You clearly are the intellectually bankrupt one, if you think that, because the suspension resulted from a Senate Ethic committee recommendations, therefore it supersedes an Appellant Court ruling that, the Senate does not have the power to suspend one of their own because it violates the rights of his/her constituents to be fully represented.

The high court ruled that, they cannot suspend beyond 14 days, the Appeal Court reversed that and held that, they can’t even suspend for a single day.

Until they appeal that ruling to the Supreme Court, any disciplinary action taken involving the suspension of a colleague is invalid and unconstitutional and it is not me saying that, it is the Courts who are vested with the powers to interprete the constitution that stated that in their order.

The power or right of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions

What I quoted is the jurisdiction of the committee and not the jargons u wrote Mr bebeto
You don’t understand the superseding nature of conflicting laws.

Did you read the Appellant case I quoted for you? How does the jurisdiction of the committee to suspend a member supersede a court order, clearly saying they don’t have the power to do so.

Hon. Danna was suspended by a committee who thought like yourself that, they have the power to do so, but the Appeal Court disagreed with them and reversed them.

Reconcile the Appeal Court order with your position, unless you think the court was in error.

His suspension received a majority voice vote, so I don't know which confirmation you are talking about. What happened was an internal affair and in such case, if in the house rules provisions are there on how such should be dealth with it is then refered to. Please in as much as you hate Saraki as a person try to be constructive in your criticism. The senate as an institution is under threat here that is what we should be more concerned about.
Majority does not mean they were right, I don’t hate anyone and I don’t have any dog in this fight and I truly don’t care what happens and don’t happen, it will not affect me in any shape or form.

The Appeal Court in House of Assembly vs. Hon. Danna had ruled that, they don’t have the power to suspend a fellow member, even for one day.

It is their duty to obey court orders, that is my point. The Appeal Court ruled that, doing so violates the Nigeria Constitution...And the Constitution is superior to any Senate rules, provisions, votes or committee resolution.

The Senate brought this upon themselves by refusing to obey a Court Order...You can be in the profession of making laws while at the same time disobeying the law and valid court orders. If they felt the court order was wrong, they should have obey it, then appeal or ask for a stay and if a stay is not grant amend their internal rules to conform to the court order until a higher court rule otherwise.

Unfortunately u don't have a point


The power or right of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions to exercise its authority over person(s), subject matter or territory is derived from the 1999 Constitution (as amended). Section 88(1) of the Constitution provides that each House of the National Assembly shall have power by resolution published in its journal or in the Official Gazette of the government of the Federation to direct or cause to be directed an investigation into sada) any matter or thing with respect to which it has power to make laws; and (b) the conduct of affairs of any person, authority, ministry or government department charged, or intended to be charged with the duty of or responsibility of sadi) executing or administering laws enacted by the National Assembly and (ii) disbursing or administering of monies appropriated by the National Assembly. Any Committee including the Senate Committee on Public Petitions can be mandated to investigate such matters; as it deems necessary.
O boy! Hope say your school fees was not wasted?

What you quoted is the constitutional duty of the House or Senate to investigate matters, ministries or people for...with respect to which it has power to make laws.

No way did it state that, they can suspend a colleague. That power is only reserved over things they have power over to make laws...The Senate can make laws over citizens, ministries;but they cannot make laws over Senate or the President, etc.

By your assertions, if you apply that section, it means that the Senate can suspend anybody including the AGN, the President.

The Court have ruled on this question and considering this constitution section and sided against the Senate...google and read ‘House of Assembly v. Hon. Danna’....they were told to their face by the appellant court that, they don’t have the right to suspend a member period!

My point is, the ethic community does not have the power to Suspend a Senator.

The constitution is superior to any ethic community or policies of the Senate...that was the ruling of the Appeal Court.

You need a brain +plus. Saraki did not suspend any senator, the ethics comittee did. Learn to be constructive when criticizing.
They did it in contravene of an existing court ruling that, the Senate does not have the right to suspend another Senate.

Doing so, will be violating the democratic rights of his/her constituents to be represented.

If the Senate felt that, a fellow member broke the law, after the committee finding, they can vote to refer the matter to the AG for prosecution and the whole Senate can vote to confirm.

There are some tails you don't touch this man has touched the wrong tail of saraki. How dare you

Red chamber bunch of thieves keep embarrassing yourself.

It's being a long time I watched royal rumble in the red chamber.

Saraki boys Vs Buhari boys
0 1
I truly commend the guy, this is good riddance to bad rubbish.

Legally Saraki can do nothing, except organize his own thugs in NASS against this guy.

Why is NASS calling for due process now? They don’t obey due process, the court of Appeal in House of Assembly v. Danna had ruled that, it is illegal to suspend a representative even for a single day that, it violates the democratic right of his/her constituent who sent him/her there to represent them.

NASS does not belong to Saraki and none of the Senators work for him or have to support a uniform agenda of NASS, each Senator is the voice of his/her constituents and not all States voted for/against Buhari, some are avid supporters of Buhari, some don’t like his shadow...

but all these views from all the states that make up our federations unit must be allowed to be aired in the NASS and you cannot suspend a rep for airing a different view, plus the rep towed the peaceful route and apologize, which he should not have, and you still suspend him in the face of a court order that says you don’t have authority to do so....and now you are crying due process?

I doubt they will take him to court, because this will unravel in front of their faces...the side that have the best thug will win...quite ironic saying this about a body that suppose to be about the rule of law.

Go and and study the nigerian constitution, the law reserves the right for the NASS to do so to maintain descipline, respect and order in the house
Dude,

Stop pulling stuff from your ass, no where is it mentioned in the constitution, try study something yourself before you ask others to do.

If you think, it exists, I challenge you to quote it...

Meanwhile, these are recent count cases on this issue:

Dino v. House of Rep: Fed. High Court Declares that indefinite Suspension of Reps are illegal and that it should not exceed 14 days.

The highest count that have spoken about this, is the Court of Appeal and in:

House of Assembly v. Danna; the Court of Appeal declares that: “A legislative house in Nigeria is not competent to suspend a member even for a single day as it is a violation of the democratic rights of members of his/her constituency”

If it is coded in the constitution as you falsely claimed the Appeal court will not have reversed the House and even back my previous assertions...

Thank God someone had challenged this illegality in the Court, but we all know that Nigeria is a lawless country, where even the three arms of government disobey court orders...and treat them as mere opinions to be followed only when convenient.

The Bank is negligent, they failed to file the incident with MasterCard within the required 60 days.

The guy reported to MasterCard, who then responded and asked the bank to file the incident with them within 60 days, which the bank neglected to do.

MasterCard would have issued a refund as card holders are protected from fraudulent uses.

As to who actually exposed his card info, I doubt if he can proof that, but on the negligence front, he will win. My guest is, first bank will pay him off to kill the case as I don’t see any benefit for them either they win or loss.

These guys were elected to represent their constituents, don’t get me wrong, they are only representing their pockets and their special interests, but that is a matter for another day...here by the Senate suspending them, the Senate it’s is depriving his constituents their constitutional rights to be full represented at the Senate.

I doubt if she is actually cheating you.

When ladies, it does not matter if married or unmarried goes to the market to shop for e.g. foodstuff, they don’t only buy foodstuffs...they usually come across something else intentional or unintentionally they had been wanting to get and they will add it to the menu.

Also, when you go to shop; you may just buy Maggie just for the meal at hand, but they may buy a supply that will last longer. They also may go for a more quality fish, meat, ingredients, etc than you. By default men thinks quantitatively while women thinks qualitatively.

So, she is invariably saving you from been hit with additional demands like...bae, I need money for makeup or money for bra, etc....if you start monitoring or micro managing her, something somewhere would have to give to accommodate for the new paradigm shift and you are going to feel the pain in some other areas, which was otherwise comfortable before now.

Secondly, she is preparing you to be a real man, this is how it is out there, so be grantful to her for giving a glimpse; this valuable lesson will prevent you from starting off unnecessary confrontations with your future wife.

You can playfully bring it to her attention, but don’t make the mistake of taking over that duty or micro managing her.

According to Nigeria laws, a man properly married to his wife either under customary or statutory law is incapable of raping the wife.

Though depending on the degree of force involved in committing the ‘rape’ assault charges can be brought against the man.
