A mace-snatching session in the Senate

Is it possible to commit terrorism by sleeping and snoring, thereby constituting serious threat to state security?

What has sleeping during meetings got to do with terrorism/ Did you charge?

Well, that is the drama that unfolded, on Wednesday, in the Ekiti State House of Assembly, where its immediate past Chief Whip, Hon. Sunday Akinniyi, was suspended for allegedly “breeding terrorism, sleeping all through plenary in the last three years.”

Hon. Akinniyi’s suspension was announced through a statement issued by the chairman of the House Committee on Information, Dr. Samuel Omotoso.

“The suspension follows series of allegations levied against him by the Leader of Business after due diligence investigation carried out by Ayodele Fajemilehin-led committee of the  kiti State House of Assembly,” the statement said, adding that “the suspended Honourable Member was also regularly regular in absenting himself especially when issues relating to his constituency is slated for discussion.”
