BIAFRA SUPPORT!!! IKE EKWEREMADU CONDEMNS SECURITY AGENTS FOR IRRESPONSIBILITY, MOVES MOTION AGAINST KILLINGS (FULL DETAILS)
Following yesterday’s violent clash between pro-Biafra activists and
security agents, the Deputy Senate President, Chief Ike Ekweremadu has
expressed concern over the excesses of security operatives in handling
protests.
Moving a motion through Order 43 of the Senate Standing Rules, the
lawmaker condemned the killing of protesters by troops and urged all
those involved in maintaining peace and order to be responsible enough
in doing that.
“Mr Senate President, Distinguished Colleagues, you recall that major
Newspapers headlines today showed killing of protesters in major parts
of the South East especially those that concern the future of this
Country and I urge Security Agents to be responsible”, Ekweremadu said.
Meanwhile, Senate President, Bukola Saraki noted that since the motion
came through Order 43, it need not be debated in line with the tradition
of the Senate.
He requested that the matter should be brought to the Senate as a sponsored motion for consideration in subsequent sitting.
