Femi Gbajabiamila: Speaker Of Federal House Of Repression Or Of Representatives? By Dr Bolaji O. Akinyemi
Femi's emergence as the speaker was overwhelming, with 283 votes against his rival, Umar Mohammed Bago who had 76 votes. He seems to have stamped his feet as an authority in the sands of the National Assembly, but except for controversy, his footprints are hardly noticed. Femi had, in May 2018, bought a Range Rover for his wife, Salamatu, as a gift for her 50th birthday. But the hullabaloo that followed from the public was drowned by his excuse.
The preference of the Femi-led House of Representatives for imported cars at a time we are left with no other option than to lift our economy by buying made in Nigeria products was shunned for Toyota brand from China. NASS, two days ago, sat to give accelerated hearing to a bill to strengthen NCDC which was brought to the House of Reps. The bill immediately scaled 1st & 2nd readings and was scaled for passage on the 3rd reading, but the puzzle was that against the tradition of bill reading and passage in the House, the 55 pages document of the bill was not given to the members of the House for them to go through and understand the contents of the bill they were being rushed to pass.
The House members wondered why Nigeria should be at the forefront of enacting such a bill at this time and even in a hurry to pass the bill which will support forced vaccination and certification to identify who has been vaccinated and who has not, even when no effective vaccine has been created.
