Senator Remi Tinubu. |
The Northern Youths
Movement (NYM) has described yesterday's verbal assault on Senator Ishakku Abbo
by Senator Oluremi Tinubu as unwarranted and uncalled for, demanding that she
must apologise for being rude to her fellow senator.
According a release
issued in Abuja on Wednesday, which was signed by the NYM Chairman, Mallam
Ishaya Jato, Senator Tinubu was described as a "serial bully" who
ought not to have been included in the Senate Committee to probe Senator Abbo's
alleged assault on a lady.
The youths said even
though they were against what Senator Abbo did, it is instructive that he has
apologised and now facing charges in court.
They pointed out that
Senator Tinubu lacked moral justification to be part of committee to sit on
ethics and values among Senators because by her past acts and utterances, she
is a bully.
The group said it was
on record that Senator Tinubu once harassed Senator Musiliu Obanikoro at the
floor of the Senate and the video of that shameful act is still on YouTube till
today.
Also, Senator Tinubu
once lied against and harassed Senator Dino Melaye by calling him dog and thug
at the floor of the Senate.
This same Senator
Tinubu was caught on camera saying she no longer trust the Igbo people living
in Lagos, just because they exercise their democratic rights to vote a
candidate of their choice. That statement, "Igbo, we no dey trust una
again" is anti-unity and oneness of Nigeria.
Therefore, threatening
a fellow Senator with suspension is a demonstration of her tyrannical nature
and we in the NYM take exception to a woman disrespecting a man just as we are
against any man assaulting a woman.
