SENATE – WORSE THAN RUBBER STAMP

Me, I did not call them rubber stamp o. Far from it, I fear and respect them too much to call them rubber stamp. The only thing that I just want to say very peacefully, and if anybody vex, I will quickly withdraw it is that this particular Senate be like say them all don take ‘Lexotan’ go sleep. Nothing is happening there, no excitement, nothing. Na just to be approving request for external borrowings o. I do not think they are even asking what happened to the previous ones. They will just approve fiam, and they will go back on recess. The only time you get anything from this lot, is when Senator Smart Adeyemi type will stand up and be railing and pouring spit all over the place shouting on insecurity after maybe his maiguard had been beaten up by a herdsman.

And have you noticed that each time we get these kinds of speeches, the hall is usually empty with just about six or seven senators sitting down there looking as bored as ever? They will be saying in their minds, ‘abeg Smart talk finish make we dey go abeg, there is a new sex toy in town, need to go sample.’ My people, these ones are looking like they have never heard of checks and balances. They are just looking like an extension of the executive, and everything is just going smoothly sef. Mbok, help me remember the name of the oga of the place. I don’t even remember that is how bad the thing is in my head. When I call people like Chuba Okadigbo, Joe Wayas, Dr Saraki, even that big Igbo man with big belle and small head, who will be wearing red cap even try. But this one, make I keep quiet. I be orphan. Sad.
