Over the past few days, it’s been from one dramatic episode to another between the executive and legislative arms of government.

There was the fainting incident involving the acting chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) to the back-and-forth accusations and counter accusations involving Godswill Akpabio, minister of Niger Delta affairs, among other such dramatisation over probes by the national assembly committees.

While appearing before house of representatives ad hoc committee investigating the suspension of the management of Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF), Chris Ngige, minister of labour and employment, told members of house that he’s older than all of them, and referred to James Faleke, member representing Ikeja federal constituency, as a “small boy”.

Ngige’s comment has, however, generated reactions on social media.
