The Executive Director, Global Center for Media and Human Empowerment(GCMHE),Charles Ejoh has berated the Senator representing Ebonyi State ,Onyekachi Nwebonyi,describing him as a thug and wizard.
Ejoh made this remark in Jos,Plateau in a Statement made available to selected newsmen .
He also commended
the former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili for standing in the face of institutional conspiracy when she clashed with Senator Onyekachi Nwebonyi .
Eagle Eye News24 recalls that Senator Nwebonyi, lawmaker representing Ebonyi North Senatorial District and Dr Oby Ezekwesili, had a heated verbal clash on Tuesday.
The altercation happened during an Ethics Committee hearing on sexual harassment allegations involving suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
Responding to questions from Seun Okinbaloye,anchor on Channels TV flagship programme: Politics Today, Senator Nwebonyi narrated that the altercation started when Ezekwesili tagged him as a hooligan and asked him to shut up.
Reacting, Ejoh in a statement on Wednesday, said Nwebonyi’s behaviour suggested that the upper legislative chamber is “clearly a conglomeration of thugs, hooligans,terrorists and wizards ” and should be scrapped.
“Look at that individual’s behavior it falls nothing short of an hooligan with all the trappings of a modern day terrorist.I believe by every tint of insight he seems to be a wife beater.Can anybody convince me why the Nigerian Senate should not be scrapped, as it is clearly a waste of resources. Imagine the so called senator has the effrontery to be making such bogus remarks.I mean his action justifies the call why the Upper Chamber should be weed off such wizards that are wasting tax payers monies to send unproductive representatives to a rubber stamp assembly.
“I commend Oby Ezekwesili for not backing down in the face of Senate’s unholy alliances”,Ejoh remarked.
