Crediting Senators Account: Resign Immediately, Frank tells Akpabio

Comrade Timi Frank, Rights Activist and self-proclaimed defender of democracy, has chastised Akpabio over the disclosure of crediting senators accounts for holiday on live TV transmission during the screening of ministerial candidate.

Speaking via a video recording, Frank described Akpabio’s revelation on live national TV as a “show of shame” and a mockery of democracy and Nigerians, and therefore called on the Senate President to resign his position  immediately.

He said it was insensitive for the federal lawmakers to enjoy national resources in the name of holidaying at a time Nigerians were facing hardships and other economic challenges.

The development forced the Senate President to pause a bit and thereafter withdraw the statement for the record and rephrased the same information.

“To enjoy your holidays, the Senate President has sent prayers to your mailboxes to assist you to go on a safe journey and return,” Akpabio said in the alternative to calm down frayed nerves.

Recall that Senate had adjourned the plenary on Monday till September 26, 2023, to observe its annual recess.

Frank, therefore, called on President Bola Tinubu to act now and end Akpabio’s leadership of the Senate and its attendant ‘national embarrassment’ by telling him to resign immediately.

“The show of shame that was demonstrated today (Monday) on a live national television where the Senate under Akpabio was telling the whole world and Nigerians that they are going on vacation, and the Clerk of the National Assembly has paid money to every account of the Nigerian Senators.

“This is the biggest joke we’ve seen in recent times, and that is the main reason why I’m making it bold and very clear that Senator God’swill Akpabio must immediately resign as the Senate President. He cannot continue to make a mockery of our democracy and make a mockery of Nigerians.

“This is the same man who made a mockery of the poor, and made it very clear in the Senate chamber by saying ‘Let the poor breath’. Meanwhile, he was laughing because he knew they will never allow the poor to breathe, they’ll continue to suffocate the poor and that is what he demonstrated today (Monday) on live TV by sharing the resources that belong to the poor to their accounts.

“Akpabio has shown that since the inception of the Nigerian Senate, this is the most corrupt Senate President ever Nigerians have witnessed.

“Nigerians have suffered too much in recent times. We did not vote our Senators to come and take money from the poor to go on vacation,” Frank stated.

Frank, therefore, called on members of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) to cut off all communications with the federal government until their demands were met.

“So therefore, I use this opportunity to call on the Nigerian Labour Congress to seize every discussion and communication with the federal government until the salary of Nigerian workers must be increased.

“Nigerians can no longer bear this. This Nollywood has to end, and the time to end this Nollywood is now. So, I appeal to Nigerians to prepare for a total shutdown until Akpabio resigns as the Senate President of Nigeria”, Frank added.
