Stop manipulating the senate for your selfish gains – Ezekwesili to Saraki


The former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has accused the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, of converting the Senate to a supporters’ club for his ongoing trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT).
About 30 senators were said to have accompanied Saraki to the CCT on Thursday.

But in a series of tweets on her official Twitter handle, Ezekwesili said the Senate President was manipulating the Senate for “selfish” gains and strongly expressed her disapproval.

The former minister said:

"Finally, Dr. Bukola Saraki, such selfish ‘pocketization’ of a public institution that you are perpetrating is never sustainable.
Selfishness is converting the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria into a supporters’ club for your personal court case.
Selfishness is a vice and not a virtue because it disregards the good of the greater number. Selfishness is being concerned, sometimes excessively or exclusively, for oneself or one’s own advantage".
