Ngige To Ekweremadu: You Are A Receiver Of Stolen Goods by Nobody: 3:45pm On Jun 27, 2015 |
Former governor of Anambra state, Senator Chris Ngige, has described the emergence of Senator Ike Ekweremadu as Nigeria’s deputy senate president, as a disadvantage to the South East people. Ngige was reacting to the recent comment by Ekweremadu that his position have made up for the Igbos in terms of zoning. The deputy senate president went on tocanvass for the South-South region to be accommodated in the Buhari government. Apparently irked by Ekweremadu’s suggestion, Ngige who is one of those tipped to emerge as the Secretary of the Government of the Federation (SGF) thundered, “Why should Ike Ekweremadu be making a case for the South South? Is he from the South South? He has no locus standi to say that. “Even the South-East he is talking about, he can’t in all righteousness claim he can speak for us – the APC of the South East, nor can he speak for the Buhari-led APC controlled government, dictating for them what to do for the South East. Moreover, I was disappointed when I read Ekweremadu’s comments. I read it in all the newspapers and I saw it in the electronic media, I saw it on the NTA, on Channels, as well as AIT, and I was a little bit confused and disappointed to be frank with you.” Speaking further, Ngige said, “Senator Ike Ekweremadu is someone I like a lot; he is a young man, he is intelligent and I can tell you without fear of equivocation when we were in the 7th Senate. I don’t know what got over him to make this pronouncement that he has gotten the share of the Igbos of the South- East. He didn’t get our share, the share he got was for himself. He is a receiver of a stolen good. The PDP people in the Senate had an opportunity because our 59 Senators were not in chambers then they elected him Deputy Senate President and forced on us a hybrid headship of the Nigerian Senate.” Ngige revealed that APC members in the South-East are not happy about Ekweremadu’s emergence because according to him, the implication of his election is that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has the highest ranking elected public officer from the region. He also opined that his election have endangered the All Progressives Congress (APC) because in his words, “the PDP in the South-East will have oxygen to breath from since they now have the highest ranking person in Nigeria coming from the South-East, that disadvantages us and puts us in a difficult position on our aspiration to make the South-East people to join the main stream of Nigerian politics by aligning with the President Muhammadu Buhari-led APC government.” Ngige who was speaking to group of journalists, also said Ekweremadu has made the job of the South East APC difficult but vowed that they were going to face the issue squarely. He said, “You know, there are many ways to kill a rat. You can decide to go and kill it manually, you can go and put it in hot water, and you can use poison – Gammalin. We are back to the drawing table because it poses a problem for us and for some of us who know the powers and the rules of the Senate, a deputy Senate president exercises powers given to him by the Senate president. It only asks him to act for the Senate president when he is not around. The deputy Senate president is like a deputy governor- a spare tyre. He is a spare; you don’t use your spare when your tyres are okay in a vehicle. If it is in your house, if you have public power supply you don’t use your generator. My very good friend and brother Ike Ekweremadu misfired when he said he has gotten the share of the South East. The share he got was for himself, it is not for the South-East,” he concluded. http://anambrariansnews.com.ng/?p=13566 1 Share

By their dressing , most of our government officials look more like clowns. Considering all their bogus allowances, it does not take much from them to dress smart and clean on the job, We see it daily how officials of other countries dress for job in spite of not being paid humongous wardrobe allowances. Our own people dress heavy and sluggish and always appear as if not ready for work, all under the guise of dressing ' nigerian 'or cultural / tribal identity. |
