EXCLUSION OF THE MINORITY LEADERSHIP IN LAGOS STATE IS TYRANNY IN DEMOCRACY: HON. SAHEED MOSADOLUWA
The founder of Ibile
peaceful assembly, Hon. Saheed Mosadoluwa (Mr-Ibile) has described the
exclusion of the minority leadership in the Lagos state House of Assembly as
tyranny and undemocratic .
He however made this
assertions while reacting to the recent Lagos State House of Assembly on
the exclusion of the offices of Minority Leader and Minority Whip in the House,
saying the two positions are no longer necessary.
“I considered the
assertion of the Chairman, House Committee on Information,
Strategy, Publicity and Security, Mr Tunde Braimoh of Lagos State
Assembly as a troubling conundrum”.
“We are not saying
majority rule is not necessary for expressing the popular will and the
basis for establishing their deceptive and progressive’s campaign but
minority is bound to disagree on any anti people ideal of the
majority”
However, the Lagos State
House Assembly should understand that the consensus cannot be the basis
for making political or legislative decisions because minority
rule is antithetical to democracy.
His words, “is this Lagos
State House of assembly? or fascist organization, I have not heard of any
state assembly without minority leaders will surely pave way for executive arm
reckless and rascality, APC members should not abuse its powers to
oppress the minority voters that send some of these traitors to that chamber to
represent their communities”.
Mosadoluwa noted
that PDP members in their constituents were not consulted before
the six members proceeded to decamped to APC, as these members were fascinated
with what those in the APC camp are benefiting which compel
them to decamped from PDP to APC.
“I would advise that
someone should stand as a minority leader to represent the will of the
minorities’ votes. We should stop being economical with truth, Hon. The Lagos
State House of Assembly on Tuesday said
the offices of Minority Leader and
Minority Whip in the House are no longer necessary Obasa, his loyalists and APC
leaders should understand the dangers of tyranny in legislature
which should also be condemned by Lagosian”.
Further more, it is of
great importance in a LSHA not only to guard Lagosian against oppression and
deceptive progressives campaigners, there is need for minority
leader in that assembly to guard the rules of the assembly against the
injustice of those who decide to tell us the rules is now superfluous
and whims.
It is time to compel
Buraimoh to resign as the chairman Lagos Assembly house committee on
information and strategies since his appointment as the chairman
is not constitution guarantees but the creation of the assembly
and that means the office that gave him the privilege to send deceptive
information to the public is also based on the whims and the rules
he just describes as fascist.
The minority's rights must
be protected no matter how alienated aminority is from the majority members of
Lagos state assembly; otherwise, the majority's rights may lose its
meaning.
Mosadoluwa, on his final
note, urged that Ibile peaceful Assembly will surely protest the heinous
decision of the majority of the house of Lagos Assembly members to prevent
Lagos State government from becoming a vehicle for the “tyranny of the APC
government. “ we will resist imposed regimentation of thought and values as the
voice of the minority must be heard”, he added.
