Natasha: Sowore commends Ezekwesili for confronting Senator Nwebonyi in viral video

 Popular Nigerian activist, Omoyele Sowore has commended the
former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili for not backing down when she
clashed with Senator Onyekachi Nwebonyi as captured in a viral video.

 

Recall that Senator Nwebonyi, lawmaker representing Ebonyi
North Senatorial District and Dr Oby Ezekwesili, had a heated verbal clash on
Tuesday.

 

The confrontation occurred during an Ethics Committee
hearing on sexual harassment allegations involving suspended Senator Natasha
Akpoti-Uduaghan of Kogi Central and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

 

In an interview on Channels TV, Senator Nwebonyi explained
that the altercation started when Ezekwesili tagged him as a hooligan and asked
him to shut up.

 

Reacting, Sowore in a post on his official Facebook page on
Wednesday, said Nwebonyi’s behaviour suggested that the upper legislative
chamber is “clearly a waste of resources” and should be scrapped.

 

“Look at this individual’s behavior and explain to me why
the Nigerian Senate should not be scrapped, as it is clearly a waste of
resources to send unproductive representatives to a rubber stamp assembly.

 

“I commend Oby Ezekwesili for not backing down”, Sowore
wrote.
