Bros go and sit down.
Democrat want to impeach trump not because their economy is better and bigger but because he is republican and going by polls, he might win next election.
In politics, your party is your first family anywhere in the world. Its the duty of the opposition to let Nigerians know the inappropriate bill sent to both chambers so that we the citizen can go to twitter or take to the streets to say no.
Death penalty for hate speech will never see the light of the day.
So nothing like rubber stamp or puppet senate president.
Canada ruling party lost majority in house which is a great setback for the ruling party.

So let criticized wisely, critically and technically so that the corrupt politicians can take the electorates and Nigerian youths serious.
This topic is above your intellect.
You should have stayed away.
Now it makes you look dumb.

The hate speech bill originated from within the senate, infact it was sponsored by senator Sabi from Niger state.
Digitiminimi:
Sir, not all requests are good. Example: Death penalty for Hate Speech is a no go area. Turn Back on that. We Nigerians doesn't want that. Noone wants that. Thanks.

Digitiminimi:
The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, on Thursday said any request from President Muhammadu Buhari would make Nigeria a better place, and such would be acted on “expeditiously.”

Lawan spoke when the Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Itse Sagay visited him in his office on Thursday.

Sagay had called for the timely passage of the Special Criminal Court and other similar bills, saying such would help the anti-corruption war and ensure that the fight was successfully won with speed and energy.

He also appealed to the Senate to consider the confirmation of the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ibrahim Magu.

Responding, Lawan said, “This is a new Senate. Going by our rules and I believe that goes for the House of Reps too, any issue that was not concluded in the last National Assembly, will have to start all over again.

“So, as far as we are concerned, those bills will have to come again and start to go through the process from the very beginning.

“We are ready. In fact, we are in a haste if those bills are ready for us to start working on them.”

Lawan said there was no request before the Senate for the confirmation of the acting chairman of the EFCC.

“I want to assure you that any request that comes from Mr President is a request that will make Nigeria a better place in terms of appointments or legislation.

“When such request comes, the Senate will act expeditiously to ensure that we play our part in the confirmation or passing of legislation appropriately.”

Dump my butt..
Intellectually, you're sounding more dumb.
Both Senate president and Speaker are from same party with the president, so what do you expect even without been told.

Are these people patriots or just because they are oppositions?
Bukola Saraki
Nancy Pelosi
Jeremy Corbyn

If Jeremy Corbyn belong to The Conservative Party, BREXIT would by now be a case closed.
If Nancy Pelosi belong to Republican party, impeachment issue would never have come up because Economically US is doing very great under Trump.

Until you the youths understand how government and governance work before Nigeria will be great again.
Your arguments are always biased and selfish. Nigerian youths are hypocrites who do not know what they actually need/want from their leaders.

Perfect definition of rubber stamp legislature


You folks should have a poll and tell us exactly what percentage of Igbos want Biafra because the people I see around here in Lagos don’t look like they are ready to leave their businesses and buildings to move to the East to do Biafra
u are a big fool if u think igboman will leave Lagos because they are now Independent from Nigeria, decision 2 stay in any part of the world is a personal one ,ur government can only frustrate them through bad policies, which no reasonable nation will do ok? Investors are needed in any part of the world, just like the yorubas living in every part of the world, has any country asked them to leave?wait until they have their dream nation, there will be diplomatic relationships with other nations of the world. An average igboman understanding of life is quite different from others ok.

Stop arguing based on emotion. Be realistic. Have u heard of Nigerian indiginization program that forced many foreigners to leave or how Nigerian and a Ghanaian govts expelled nationals of each other?
See the screenshot below. Note the bolded
“What my eyes saw in Bamenda when I travelled to Cameroon made me know the disadvantage of not being a citizen of a country and the animosity of Africans against one another.”
