All Progressives Congress members of the House of Representatives have staged a walkout on the House following a stalled debate on the controversial $9.3m seized last week by the South African Government.

A private jet with three people from Nigeria, including an Israeli, ‎conveyed the money, said to have been intended for the procurement of arms and ammunition to South Africa.

Members bid to debate the motion on Tuesday but it failed after a voice vote called by the presiding Deputy Speaker, Mr. Emeka Ihedioha, went in favour of the majority, who opposed the debate.

APC members immediately began walking out on the House.

More details later…

Apc doing things

gratiaeo: Opposition is not to insult but proffer alternative solution but APC is not in the sense because they do not consider national security. I feel for the yorubas because a group of intelligent people being led astray by a thief , an illiterate and a person who can not defend himself from certificate forgery.

You should always endeavor to make your points without needless tribal slant's.

What has your "feeling" for the Yorubas got to do with a mega party like the APC with membership cutting across almost all sphere's of the country . . .

it was a comic scene.they left lyk students who had been told lectures won't hold.

Shebi there was a vote, so why did they walk out ? If you don't lobby, you can't have things your way in the legislature so these people should stop dramatizing things unnecessarily.

Again mentioning Yorubas needlessly, unfairly and disparingly. Are all Reps now Yoruba alone? The fondness of your ilk for ethnocentric and openly prejudiced behaviour is nauseating. When Yorubas then tell you to mind your own business, since you never have anything good to say about Yorubas and must always portray them negatively, you will begin playing victim. Bigot.

smh seriously @ apc, My neck is even paining me. Thugs in d house, no decorum at all. Smh again.

I wonder what a tribal bigot like you is doing on an informed public forum like this.

"Members bid to debate the motion on Tuesday but it failed after a voice vote called by the presiding
Deputy Speaker, Mr. Emeka Ihedioha, went in
favour of the majority, who opposed the debate."
In democracy,the minority will always have their say but the majority will always have their way.

Goon

Are the Yorubas the only memeber of APC?
Moreso, isnt it expedient that the $9.3million-Oritsejafor-private jet-Money laundering-Gun running scandal be debated on the floor of the house?

I give up on Nigeria

Please mention . . .

no I won't

Are you saying they shouldn't debate on this issue?

PassingShot: Nigeria is finished! So the house deemed it fit not to debate that disgraceful occurrence? We're done for ...

Indeed
Nigeria is finished ! I cant imagine that a scandal of that magnitude would be swept under the carpet.

NINE. THREE MILLION DOLLARS !

You prefer a rubber stamp opposition I guess.

..Seriously?

Are we really okay in this country?

A situation which is about to cause an international row between Nigeria and SA... A situation which makes the entire leadership of Nigeria (and in fact, the entire Nigerian citizens) look like crooks in the international scene... The house of Representatives do not think this is an important matter that should be discussed??

..And even here in Nairaland, a lot of supposedly intelligent ordinary Nigerians do not also see this as an issue that should be discussed but are rather concerned about APC vs PDP drama??

Don't mind the muppet.

Do you have a problem with comprehension or you are trying hard to be silly.. The topic say "APC law makers" not "Yoruba law makers".. Ah! I can see tribalism has eaten deep into your brain.

dis ur belief hmmm, what of if them give u 10million n a presidential handshake, what will be ur belief?

PDP burying facts since 1999. This whole $9.3 issue stinks. Too much lies and the truth been buried. But no matter what, the truth will surely surface someday.

I don't even bother 2 read d article, bt all am gonna say is dat pls our lawmakers, don't allow d wish of d americans to come 2 pass.
