DEPUTY Senate President, Mr. Ike Ekweremadu, would not stop to amuse us. His call for the Constitution to give a nod to the legalisation of prostitution in Nigeria shows the height of laziness ongoing in the Senate.One wonders why a call to legalise prostitution in Nigeria should be coming from the Senate during this difficult period in Nigeria's history if the members have good and affirmative works that would help Nigerians to do.We are not white people who do not have cultures that are rooted in morality. The whites believe that 'it is my life to live.' And we have seen where this has landed the world. Ekweremadu should not bring to Nigeria his experiences from Amsterdam, in the Netherlands, where in Red Light Districts, prostitution is a way of life.We are already blind seeing naked ladies of all sizes on the streets of Nigeria as was the case at the Red Light Districts where Ekweremadu perhaps likes seeing prostitutes who are show-cased behind glass windows.We are even tired of watching unwholesomely Nigerian girls who go naked in the name of fashion, flaunting their cleavages. Therefore, Ekweremadu should stop this ugly agendum he sees in Netherlands, Belgium and some other European countries where prostitution is legalised, because one of his children is said to be attending school in Belgium.Ekweremadu should know that immorality has never been a collective practice in the annals of the world if he feels that it has become impossible to stop prostitution in Nigeria.Just hear Ekweremadu: 'We need to regulate prostitution in this country so that if anyone wants to indulge in prostitution, the person should be registered and issued with a licence. If we say we want to stop it, it would be difficult. It is done in other countries; let us regulate it by issuing license.'Like father like son, Senate President, David Mark corroborated Ekweremadu's strangel proposal, saying: 'the FCT administration has been trying to stop but they are facing stiff resistance because the prostitutes have their association and even their own legal adviser. It is a reasonably organised bad profession.'Rich men and women! Hmmm! Nigerian Senate and Senators' These guys feel that they are in South Africa, Belgium, and Netherlands or in Sodom and Gomorrah where they can feel the use of prostitutes. But sorry, this is Nigeria, a black man's country where morality should be held religiously and not minding the prostitute that has resisted arrest and all that hogwash. Is this what we sent these guys to do for us at the Senate' To bring prostitution crusade to us, whereas they pretend to be good Christians and Muslims' The proponents of this agendum should be reminded that: "Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance," (Proverbs 29:3).Do Ekweremadu and Mark want to keep company with harlots' "For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication,"(1 Thessalonians 4:3).Hear again: "Whoever recommends and helps a good cause becomes a partner therein, and whoever recommends and helps an evil cause shares in its burden." (Quran, 4:85).Why only legalising prostitution' We the ordinary Nigerians don't blame them! Why not legalise corruption, robbery, kidnapping, pedophilia and terrorism' National Agency for the Prohibition of Traffic in Persons (NAPTIP should watch very well if this is a way of also legalising human trafficking in Nigeria. What a leadership team with Ekweremadu and Mark' They are not thinking about the plight of the well meaning Nigerians on how they will be fully engaged with noteworthy occupations except legalising prostitution.Since they have infected us with poor leadership style, they want us to be invaded by killer-diseases. This could be why they want the agenda. The senators' proposal is a shameful one. No wonder these Boko Haram boys want Sharia to be part of Nigeria's Constitution and the likes of Ekweremadu are crying, but here they want to legalize stupidity. While we are waiting for these guys to solve our economic problems, they are throwing more salvos to compound the overpopulation problem. They did not legalise fuel subsidy, but they want prostitutes. Since most of them rule us from abroad, they want the sex industry to assume international dimension here in Nigeria.Somebody asked: 'Would legalisation reduce some of the inequalities and abuses suffered by the women involved' Or by legitimising prostitution, would we reverse decades of works to promote human rights and improve the status of women'' While sex is pleasurable and healthy, prostitution is not, from any angle one looks at it. Shocked! Shocked!! Shocked!!! Tufiakwa!In Nigeria, there are many industries that are not regulated like bars, cab drivers, restaurants... why prostitution' Even private schools, are they properly regulated' Everyday, buildings are collapsing in Nigeria without control.
