The former Minister of Education and co-founder of the #BringBackOurGirls Campaign, Obiageli Ezekwesili, is well-known for being outspoken on socio-political matters.
With the news that the ministerial screening was postponed by the Senate because of Bukola Saraki’s Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) hearing, Oby took to her Twitter page to express her outright discontent:
Honestly my dear @bukolasaraki , you should have dissuaded your colleagues from doing such damage to the Democratic Institution of NASS.

Our LAWMAKERS would do well to quickly RETRACE their steps from this egregious and ill-advised “union” on a private judicial proceeding. — Oby Ezekwesili (@obyezeks) October 21, 2015
Citizens must realize that WE CANNOT AFFORD to PERMIT our Public Officials continue with the HABIT of “Privatizing” Democratic Institutions.

Before long, also on his Twitter, Senate President Bukola Saraki responded:
Due process is key for the sustainability of our democracy. https://t.co/ihE8HJaygf

It will be harmful for our nation if institutions are weakened for personal causes. https://t.co/ihE8HJaygf
— Bukola Saraki (@bukolasaraki) October 21, 2015
The sustainability of our institutions is also dependent on the law being devoid of external interferences. https://t.co/ihE8HJaygf

Then Oby had the last word:
@bukolasaraki I speak for Citizens who like me just simply wish for a TRANSPARENT judicial DUE PROCESS on your case with CCT. #Institutions
— Oby Ezekwesili (@obyezeks) October 21, 2015
My dear friend, LEADERSHIP BY EXAMPLE is EVERYTHING. You should not “privatize” our Democratic Institution, NASS. #ThatsAll| @bukolasaraki:
