After the incident that happened at the Red Chamber of the National Assembly, there has been a lot of reactions as to how and why thugs invaded the Red Chamber to hijack and disappear with the Mace. Though the Nigerian Police and all other sister security agencies are all on the case, there has been one reaction that has caught the eyes of many, even revealing more details as to how much a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria goes home with every month end.
Reno while reacting to the invasion of the Senate, took a dig at them saying even with the calibre of persons in the Senate, none of them could stop their Mace from being taking away. Describing the Senate of ex-police officers, Army Generals of not being brave enough to avoid the shame such action has brought to the National Assembly.
Funny though, I thought of that myself watching the video and how Senators were dumbfounded at how everything happened and rather than wrestle with the thugs which I assumed were not armed, they all ran towards the Deputy Senate President, aiming for the exit door should in case things goes out of hand.
The women in white who are like assistants in the chamber tried their best to stop any intrusion, with one getting herself Injured in the process. But that lady who stood up to those thugs deserves a commendation for her bravery.
Reno taking to his social media page, described the event saying:
So even with the ₦13.5 million monthly we pay our Senators, not one of them was willing to stand up and bravely resist the thugs as they marched away with the mace? Watch the video. There are ex Generals and ex police AIGs there. Is that how much value they place on their mace?
