Ekekee accused Naija's 36 governors of squandering a paltry N6.5 billion security votes. In a country where Boko Haram, kidnappers, armed robbers and suicide bombers operate without licence, followers are worried that the amount is not tripled for the safety of these irreplaceable beings. Heaven has never made specie as delicate and valuable as governors. A governor's life is worth much more than 1,000 of other disposable citizens. If I lie, ask how much Taraba, Enugu and Cross River are spending daily or how much it cost to treat Wada and now his Speaker locally. Citizens are free to die at will, not governors.
In their moment of sanity, sinators and representathieves would address Mr Ekekee for suggesting that their emoluments should be converted to generate jobs for commoners. Nothing I have ever read sounds so ungrateful. These legislooters left lucrative jobs to sleep in chambers, model the trendiest clothes, ride the flashiest cars, but find the time to pass budgets and so get fat paychecks. This nation will heal without them, but then we love the wounds they inflict on the economy.
