So
on Tuesday last week, the Rivers State House Assembly came under attack,
massive attack in fact, from non-other but the members itself or shall I say
gladiators. The stories that have come out are sketchy to say the least,
however, one thing is for sure; there was a fight. Now, I’m not talking about abuse me, I abuse you, Im talking about
grabbing the mace and bashing your colleagues head in with it. Talk about abuse
of power……..
What
scares me more is that, what if, like our friend Spartacus; these guys were
armed with swords or worse still guns. The slicing and dicing or and the killing
that would have followed ehn! Not a small thing oh! I mean if you had seen the gladiator
oops sorry I meant the member of the house who ran in, grabbed the mace and
proceeded to chase down two to three other members. The scape goat (I wonder
why he could not run fast enough), got the full brunt of the members might as
the mace came crashing down on his head. For those of you who watched the
macabre show either live or via youtube or any other social media platform,
would attest to the brutality and animalistic show of disgrace that was on
parade at the arena, did I just say that, sorry, I meant the floor of the State
house of assembly.
Sitting
in my office, watching the video onyoutube I was screaming and jumping about as
if my body was on fire. Why oh why? I kept asking myself. I needed
clarification on the matter, still do. However, I heard (heard oh!) that five
members of the Rivers State House of Assembly who are loyal to the Presidency
proceeded to put motions in place to impeach the speaker of the house- to what
ends?? Your guess is as good as mine. But how do 5 members impeach a speaker,
are 5 members enough to form a quorum? Out of a possible 30 or is it 31?
Anyway,
gangangan!!! Enter the “boss” or is he the “actor”? (tell me please), as I was
saying, enter Hon. Chidi Lloyd. He dashes in, grabs the mace, and proceeds to
bash his “enemies” breaking of the top of the mace in the act. Dear readers on
this issue alone ehn, I need help, please let me know what this hullabaloo is
about. What’s the real motive? What’s the real agenda?
Hilariously unfortunate. Nice narrative style.
ReplyDeleteNice one madd customer! I'm lost for words. The good thing about this is that Nigerians have finally lost respect for these politicians/ comedians. People now refer to Lloyd and Chinda respectively as the "Akpako" and the "Akpakee". Smh for naija
