SIX ENUGU STATE NIGERIA LAWMAKERS LINKED TO N4 BILLION DRUG BURST?

Icheoku says, if the alleged involvement of six Enugu State lawmakers in drug-trafficking and importation of 450 kilos of cocaine into Nigeria is true, we demand a full and complete investigation, disclosure of the identities of these people, including their communities and political party affiliations. We also demand that the full weight of the law be brought on them as law makers who should know better not to break the law. It is regrettable the grave length some of these unscrupulous and supposed "honorable" men and women will go just to remain in power. That these politicians need money to prosecute elections, does not grant them impunity to do just anything to get that money; and at all cost and any means whatsoever; including breaking the law on Nigeria's drug trafficking. What a bad example to set by people tasked with law making in Governor Sullivan Chime's Enugu State Nigeria? It is a shame!


The EFCC and the Nigerian authorities must therefore make an example out of these six (dis)honorable individuals by punishing them sufficiently. Also their political party/ies should suspend and disqualify them from running for any future elective offices on their party platforms for showing a bad example of how not to be legislators. Icheoku notes with regrets that this is the second time Enugu State lawmakers are making ignoble headlines and this particular illicit drug pushing by six of their lawmakers is not only criminal but unbecoming of any law makers anywhere, who by their present action, have now become law breakers instead. Enough should be enough; we demand that these 'six legislative drug traffickers' be suspended from the House immediately and made to face the full weight of the law. They must not be allowed to tarnish the image of Enugu State, the Igbo-man and Nigerians in general; and must therefore be severely punished to set example and as a recompense
