Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has accused the National Assembly of double standard for confirming former service chiefs as non-career ambassadors.
He said: “Let me use this opportunity to express the dismay of most Nigerians to the Senate. Convey this to the Senate. We must be courageous in whatever we are doing. Everything must not be party affairs. You sat and discussed that they should dismiss the service chiefs. You said they’re not performing.
“I don’t like talking about NDDC. It is unfortunate that those who fought for it, if they knew that this is how NDDC will be, I don’t think that they would have even asked for it,” he said. He said: “You, as the Senate Committee Chairman, and that of the House Committee, you’re from the region too. You are supervising NDDC, so why not sit down with them to know what are the legacy projects that they want to carry out this year in the Niger Delta States. Tell them these are projects they must make sure first are being done.
The governor also expressed his displeasure over a Senator who overstepped his immunity during plenary to demean a serving governor by calling him a drunk. “We will do everything that is possible within the limits of the constitution through our oversight functions for them to achieve their objectives.”
Rubber stamps.
What do expect from them
Rubber Stamp 9th Senate!!! Shameless lot.
Different roles, scope and focus?

Sometimes I wonder what this Buhari’s government really wants. The government does not want to Unite Nigeria. His government does not want to Divide Nigeria. This government does not want to Restructure Nigeria. What exactly does this government want?
the world 🌎is just laughing at how stupid our leaders are and how gullible we the subjects still celebrate their stupidity.

Senators who are reasoning in a 'left' direction...they are like a set of people who ate sand in a food prepared for them and condemned the food but later coronate the food that it was delicious and good.
