Why Is A Brilliant Senator Like Sen. Enyinnaya Abaribe Not The President of This Country? If you listen to this man, his brilliance, eloquence, well-roundness in global affairs and constitution, we overlook people like this and elect illiterates into government, yet you wonder why this country is not moving forward. There is a reason why he is respected in the senate, and Dr. Saraki listens to him because he knows he is a brilliant man. Watch the full interview...

Afonja...enemy to the progress of Nigerians. They are responsible for all the suffering in this country. They elect illiterates and want it to continue. They are happy with the way the country is. I don't know how these people reason...they support everything evil and bad, and stand against everything good and virtuous.

You took the words outta my mouth, make him a president today and you start to wonder what's inside the presidential villa that negatively transform people. But meanwhile he is also a part of the Senate and we all know the rot in the Senate.

With all his brilliance, have you ever heard him kick against PADDING and the gigantic salaries and allowances of legislators? No!

Enough of paper tigers. We need bold lions, to dismantle the culture of corruption and impunity in the land.!

Is that any explanation why the PDP 2019 presidential slot has been zoned to the North? With the full agreement of your people?

Besides, if na by speaking ability, this senator doesn't hold to candle to the likes of Donald Duke

What makes Abaribe brilliant ? OP how do you Igbo define brilliant ? A man that lacks the intelligence to galvanize his own people nor rally support for the success of his cause among other ethnic tribes in Nigeria. How is that brilliant ?
Southern politicians, the trio of the SS SE & SW should desist from the foolery or telling us the Hausa are Abokis and learn how they are able to speak & make critical decisions in unionism.

Abiola was able to do it before he died, Jonathan found a way around it the same goes for Obasanjo. Any politician that is not able to bridge the gap is a fool so Abaribe should grow his brain to accomplish that and not act like moronic Ipob that put the cart before the horse. Once the support his there the generality of the masses will queue behind Abaribe's dream. It should not be the other way round where commoner suffer our head to build alliances to enthrone selfish politicians without them learning the basiscs of alliances. Democracy does not work in such manner at least the way I know it.

He was not impeached. This is his 3rd time in the Senate. If he were impeached, he won't make it to the Senate. He was smart and outwitted his rivals by resigning when he got wind of the impeachment plot.

In other words he kept having issues with his own constituency.

My choice of words were deliberate because it brings to bear why he simply cannot be a unifying factor even in his home state.

Mind you, his 'impeachment' was more than once.

He had no problem with his constituency unless you are implying that it was 'fulani herdsmen' who voted him into the Senate for 3 consecutive times!

Constituency doesn't only describe your Senate area.

His constituency while he was deputy governor was the entire state, particularly his state house which moved for his impeachment.

In Nigeria, Deputy Governors are underdogs. I can bet you do not know the name of your state deputy governor because he doesn't wield any influence in the politics of your state.

He was not the speaker of the state house but a deputy governor who was at the mercy of his governor. All he needed to retain his seat was to remain dumb and worship OUK and his mother (which was pervasive among Abia politicians at the time) but being who he is, Enyi Abia, he bolted out of the suffocating influence.

For the umpteenth time, he was not impeached! Except you need to be schooled on the implications of impeachment to one's political career.

I know you saw impeachment in quotes. Which implies we might agree to disagree on whether this was the true case. The state house thought so at the time.

Abaribe was not accepted by even his own catchment, constituency, business area, whatever term we think best. Your interpretation of what you think transpired even if true, is your own opinion on it.

The facts are there, his presence brought rancour and division to the House.

In his own state for that matter.
