Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Silverbird
Group, Mr. Ben Murray-Bruce, on Monday declared
his intention to represent Bayelsa East Senatorial
District in the National Assembly. With his declaration, Murray-Bruce has the likes of
Senator Barigha Amange, Clever Ikisipo to
contend with for the senatorial seat. Though Murray-Bruce is from Akassa speaking
group of Brass Local Government where the
senatorial seat has been zoned to, Amange
cautioned recently that zoning should not be at
the expense of merit and experience. Ikisipo on his part said there was no zoning in
the Bayelsa East, insisting that there was never a
time stakeholders discussed zoning in the district. Murray-Bruce said if his people believed in him
and support his aspiration, he would ensure he
sponsored bills to tackle poverty in the country. He said, “I am running for the Senate because I
am interested in the laws of our land; I am
interested in making change and I am not
interested in business as usual. “I have always been concerned about the
poverty of the mind, about women who are not
being protected, children who are being raped,
men who are paedophiles, a society where there
is no order, we must bring order to our society. “There are too many poor people living under the
bridge. Nigeria is too rich for people to be poor
and Nigeria is too poor for the super upper class
to be so rich. That has to stop.” He regretted that most wealthy Nigerians were
not paying their taxes, insisting that if they were
paying their taxes, it would be rare to see an
individual having three private jets. He added, “If they pay their taxes, an individual
will not have three private jets and the poor man
on the street will have a chance to make a living.
There is no way I will be a happy seeing my
children go to private school and my staff do not
have their children at school and cannot eat three meals a day. “This society will explode and implode, there will
be violence, there will be mayhem, unless
politicians start thinking rationally.”

under which party?

Lol... At last...

It is either PDP or PDP because there's only one Party in Bayelsa state

this man stands a better chance winning the presidential elections than the present crop of politicians we have contesting for it. his few words even made more sense and has better direction than all the useless paper read foolish declarations with rented crowds we have witnessed so far.

Who d Bleep is he. What has he done to improve the live of poor people around him asides orgarnizing beauty pageants.

Bravo, at last. Men of valour and substance stepping into politics. Muarray bruce, you have my vote already.

What is this I am hearing? Ah! now I see! politics is a reigning investment in Nigeria. I shake head for this country. Oga BRUCE, go and pack money abeg,. You and I know that You are not concern about the welfare of the common people. tell me the truth, You are going for the sole aim of "packing money".

I am still waiting for the beautiful one that is yet to be born...

He is just going to government to expand his business and stop paying taxes and kick backs. Reject the opportunity seeker bayelsa people, if you guys rejected gej, we wont be where we are today.
