Please don't defend nonsense, check the tone of the Tweets you posted and the tone of the one op posted, are they the same? Did the tone of the Tweets you posted make the defecting Senators' party the highlight like the one the op posted?



Please always stand for truth and nothing but the truth, thank you

It's exactly the same. All of them highlighted the political parties (and I have explained why in many posts). The only thing different was the use of the word dump, which is more appropriate in the media.

In fact some of the screenshots I posted highlighted the party even more than the tweet in the original post

DesChyko:
I saw that. They were discussions mostly unlike the House of Reps: that were direct 'defection' posts and no discussions. However, none of them was done in such crass manner. You may want to re-read each of what you shared and cross-reference it with the initial post.

A few were discussions, but most were direct defection posts.

When a member changes party, he must inform the presiding officer in writing. The presiding officer will then read the member's letter at plenary and instruct the sergeant-at-arms to show the member his new seat.

It's not as obvious in the Nigerian National Assembly as in some other houses, but members of the opposition and members of the majority sit in different places, so the member's seat must change.

The social media accounts of the Senate and the House provide live reports of plenary sessions and in some cases committee meetings and press conferences, so they must report these things.

The only thing that is different is the use of the word dump (which is more appropriate in the media), but apart from that it is an announcement, like all the other announcements.

DesChyko:
You can review the 'House of Reps' snapshots shared here (not Senate, but okay). It is possible evidence from the Senate doing the same was not obtainable.

Scroll through the thread. I shared 12 screenshots from the Senate before sharing from the House of Representatives.

Scroll up.

It's exactly the same in the House of Representatives.

Usually the movement from one party to the other affects where a member sits in the House (if he sits with the governing party or the opposition). It is usually announced at plenary and the job of the social media handles is to report what happens at plenary and in the House in general.

End

It's always been the case

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that tweet. It is usually announced at plenary when a senator or member of the House defects from one party to the other and the social media handles of the Senate and House have a duty to report exactly what happens and what is said at plenary.

This is not new and it has always been the case.

South African model, Chidimma Vanessa Onwe Adetshina has made it to the last 13 of the Miss South Africa 2024 Pageant. However Adetshina, who has a Nigerian father and South African mother and was raised in Soweto, has faced backlash from some South Africans who say that she is not South African.

The Miss South Africa Organisation says that Chidmma Adetshina has met all the criteria for participation. Responding to the insults and xenopbobic attacks that the 23 year old law student has faced, the organisation said “All documentation provided by the entrants is screened and vetted”.

“Chidimma is a South African citizen and has met all the requirements to be a part of the Miss South Africa competition. Her mother is South African (Zulu), and her father is Nigerian.”

According to Miss SA eligibility, contestants must be South African citizens and possess a valid ID or passport. If the contestant holds dual citizenship, documents relating to both must be made available

According to an amendment to the South African Citizenship Act, citizenship can be acquired by birth, descent, or naturalisation.

By birth means any individual born in the country, provided their parents are permanent residents.
