POLITICAL NOTES
When 28 Senators voted in favour of electronic transmission of election results, the former Deputy Senate President, Senator Ike Ekweremadu was among another set of 28 senators, who were conspicuously absent at the Upper Chamber on July 15, 2021 when their presence mattered most to the Nigerian voters.
The masses whose power to choose their leaders has diminished over the years due to the manipulation of the electoral process by desperate politicians had expected Ekweremadu and the other 27 absentee-senators to contribute positively to the one of the most important legislation enacted by the ninth National Assembly.
But the representative of the Enugu West senatorial district at the National Assembly chose to attend the less important regular session of the International Parliament for Tolerance and Peace (IPTP) in Montenegro, where he claimed to have presented the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the National Assembly and the IPTP.

During the latest G7 meeting in Cornwall, England a couple of weeks ago, U.S. President Joe Biden called on other world leaders to join America in doing more to counter Chinaâs rising influence and to more directly condemn them head on for their treatment of the Uyghurs.
