WELCOME TO KTNBIO

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, on Thursday told President Bola Tinubu that posterity will not be fair to him if he allows Governor Sim Fubara to be humiliated for respecting him [Tinubu].

He said this while describing some legislators under the aegis of the Rivers State National Assembly Caucus as an assemblage of habitual adult bedwetters.

Eze maintained that the lawmakers have lost their sense of decency and focus and are bereft of moral rectitude, following their alleged quest to retard the socio-political and economic advancement of Rivers State.

Eze, a member of the APC Legacy Media Team, was reacting to the recent communiqué by those he tagged as a group of Abuja-based ‘political area boys’ regarding the protracted leadership crisis rocking the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Recall that the Rivers State National Assembly Caucus had accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara of procuring the services of some persons, including Senior Advocates of Nigeria, to manipulate the law and judgments of the court to skew public opinion in his favor and justify his refusal to obey any court judgment against him.

In a statement released in Port Harcourt, Chief Eze described the attitude of the lawmakers as parochial, incongruous, and wicked, insisting that they have lost the essence of being called lawmakers.

The APC chieftain noted that, most importantly, from their stance, the group of lawmakers has become a tool in the hands of detractors hell-bent on destroying the state for their selfish interests.

At this point, Eze reminded the caucus that the core function of a legislator is to make laws, adding that legislators also represent their constituents and oversee the executive and judicial branches of government.

Rather than focusing on providing purposeful representation to their respective constituents, “those busybodies and middle-of-the-road lawmakers are busy playing politics with the progress and development of Rivers State.”

“It beats one’s imagination that the Rivers State House of Assembly members under Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule, upon defection to the APC, are still laying claim to their vacant seats.

“Allowing the issue at stake to chase shadows is repulsive, as there was no time Femi Falana, SAN, misinterpreted court judgments—he merely spoke the law.

“For these political chameleons to eat their vomit, swallow their pride, and lie from the pit of hell that defection never took place in Rivers State is highly unfortunate and morally debasing.

“We want Nigerians and the world to know that the withdrawal of the counter-affidavit by the Rivers State Governor in a suit by Amaewhule was based on the truce brokered by President Bola Tinubu. The question is: when did it become a sin for a governor to obey a President?”

“So, the governor withdrew his counter-affidavit because President Tinubu requested that all warring parties should sheathe their swords and come to the table for a truce.

“Unfortunately, those who feel Nigeria is their fathers’ estate—those dictators in the making, those who don’t respect their elders and Mr. President—blatantly refused to withdraw their court processes.

“If President Tinubu allows Fubara to be humiliated for respecting him as an elder and President of Nigeria, then posterity will never be fair to President Tinubu.”
