Nigerians on Social Media have reacted to the invasion of the residences of the principal officers of the Senate, Bukola Saraki and Ike Ekweremadu by security operatives in Abuja.
DAILY POST had reported that the Police blocked Saraki’s convoy at Lake Chad junction in Abuja.
Similarly, the police and the EFCC have since laid siege on the home of Ekweremadu, stopping him from attending Tuesday plenary.
Reacting, some Nigerians have condemned the act, saying it is a mockery of democracy.
Here are some comments DAILY POST gathered:
@ordondomathias1, ”I don’t know why failure is treating people like this, must he stay in APC? We are tired of this. Under this failed APC, no freedom of speech. Religion and human right have been manipulated, people are treated like slaves, PDP come to our aid@OfficialPDP ng.”
@MikeEbullience, ”If the NASS lacks the common sense to impeach Buhari. Then, Buhari will use poor sense to stampede the NASS.”
@holusurlar, ”Is there any diff btw APC and PDP? Boss they are all the same thing.”
@emmaikumeh, ”Of course this is mediocrity. It is dog eat dog. When SARS are out there messing civilians, who is crying for them? Is it not democracy? Is it because he is Senate President? Who is not victimized in Nigeria? Who should be exempted? We are not ripe for democracy.”
@omekannaya1st, ”The Buhari effect will affect everyone, this is just the beginning.”
@lubi_funakpo, ”Nigerians voted for a crocodile whose golden spot cannot be washed away by atmospheric rain.”
@mcsunnyo2, ”I’m personally not surprised. It is simply a clampdown on the perceived opposition members.”
@Triple_O_4u,” I guess those that voted them in are happy now or those that brought them to power .”
@youngjc4j ”This is giving us a feel of 1984, just a feel not the real deal. Put some respect on Fela from now henceforth. I always thought it was music.”
@fikky pearl, The same Security that can’t protect the poor citizens from Fulani herdsmen were ordered from above to intimidate the opposition members. Hope @APCNigeria would bear all these as an opponent when the government that will be in power @OfficialPDPNig would start doing theirs come next year?”
