Policemen were sent to Okadigbo's residence in Abuja to retrieve the mace. It was said that the police officers told Okadigbo their mission but he wouldn't release the mace to them, The Cable reports. told BBC at the time: “The police arrived at 5.55 a.m. (0455 GMT) in six jeeps fully loaded with armed officers. “They told me they had come to collect the mace and that they were acting on orders from the inspector general of police. I said I would never give them the mace. I have to be dead before you get the mace, I told them. This is executive lawlessness and is unprecedented in Nigeria’s history.” However, Okadigbo didn't win the battle as he was impeached by the Senate. He died three years after the incident. Rotimi Williams was quoted to have said: if the coat of arms is attached to this stick I'm holding, it becomes a mace 3 Likes 1 Share |

This is executive lawlessness and is unprecedented in Nigeria’s history.” Nigerians use lawlessness to fight lawlessness. Okadigbo went home with national property. An unlawful act to begin with. |

We are getting something wrong in Nigeria. What is important mace which is only symbol or majority members decision? When thugs invaded Senate in 8th assembly and took away mace, is their decision before retrieved the mace back invalid? 1 Like |

Election is seen as war in Nigera. If it was in the past, the military would have had enough excuse to strike. 1 Like |

Unsurprisingly we are far from the acclaimed Democracy. Majority must always have their ways while minorities can have their say. Why were they not sworn in? Can we now justify illegality on legality? |

In the absence of a mace any other one can be used. it is just a cultural and ceremonial stick. |
