When our people go abroad for treatment, we think it is because our health facilities are not good. When we travel abroad for education, we feel our schools are bad. Americans and Europeans also need to travel outside their countries for health and education-related issues. I have seen Westerners come to Nigeria for health and Educational related research. In any case, we the so-called ordinary Nigerians are worse than the government. I am a political activist and I have proof of what I am saying.
The case of Senator Ike Lawrence Ekweremadu, a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria who seems to have been forgotten has proved that Nigerian Politicians are the proverbial land that eats its inhabitants. His ordeal has also exposed how weak our diplomatic missions are to protect their Citizens. Let us take for instance if Ike Ekweremadu is a US citizen with such a political office holder will they be this weak to facilitate diplomatic means to resolve the issue?
In addition to Reno Omokri’s “Condemned By His People”, tweets, you will understand that “kit and kin” are leading the guilty charge against Ekweremadu when he has not been convicted. Information gathered that a Lawyer from Enugu has already filed a motion in Court to declare his sit vacant.
In a series of tweets, Omokri wrote: “The man could be innocent or guilty. We don’t know. A trial will determine his guilt. But what saddens me is the way and manner in which his people are leading the charge to crucify him. First have love amongst yourself before saying others don’t love you!
“In the US, Trump’s crowd stayed loyal to him, no matter the charge. An accusation isn’t a conviction. I feel sorry for this red-cap chief. His people are the ones already condemning him!
“Things are fluid. It just happened. It is out of character for him. There will be a trial to establish the truth. His kith and his kin should not lead the charge to speculatively condemn him. There will be more than enough time to condemn him if he is convicted!
“His people have forgotten the development he attracted to his area and are acting as if he has already been convicted. I doubt he will be convicted. There must be an explanation. The man is not a pauper. It is sad how he is treated as an orphan on his own.”
