Senators, on Thursday cracked
jokes over one ‘Jubril Aminu Al-Sudani,’ an alleged impersonator of President
Muhammadu Buhari.
The banter started when the
presiding officer, Ike Ekweremadu, asked the chairman, Senate Committee on
Tertiary Institutions and TETFUND, Barau Jibrin, to read a report of his
committee.
He soon realised that Jibrin was
not around and would be represented by another senator, Binta Garba.
“Which of the Jibrin?” Mr Ekweremadu
asked when Mrs Garba signalled to read the report.
The question elicited laughter in
the chamber while forcing a response from Mrs Garba.
“We are aware of the Jibrin you
people are trying to force… but this is Binta, not Jibrin,” she said.
In seconding the motion to
consider the report, Shehu Sani also referred to Mrs Garba as Jibrin.
He said, “I stand to second the
motion being moved by Jibrin…Binta Masi Garba.”
Before presenting the report, Mrs
Garba went again to the Jibrin issue.
“For the avoidance of doubt, my
name is Binta Masi Garba, not Jibrin,” she said and went ahead to present the
committee report on the establishment of the federal polytechnic in Abia State.
