Saraki Group Rejects APC Primaries As Lawan Emerges Winner, See Press Release by Clerverly: 12:08am On Jun 07, 2015
PRESS RELEASE BY APC SENATORS-ELECT OF LIKE MINDS

We the Senators-Elect of Like Minds today 6TH of June 2015, on the invitation of our party, attended an interactive meeting with selected 5 members from each group, the Unity Forum and the Like Minds Group.
Regrettably, the Unity Forum insisted on open ballot voting which we discovered is different from the electoral process used to conduct the earlier election with the House of Representatives members elect. To us, this open ballot voting is primitive; undemocratic and against universal electoral norms and practice.

In the light of the above, we the Senators elect of Like Minds hereby insist on our position of Open Secret voting process which we believe is in consonance with the provisions of the electoral act, the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and the universal electoral values.
As responsible citizens of Federal Republic of Nigeria, and leaders in our own right, we have resolved and hereby state that we shall not be part of a process that promotes undemocratic electoral process that may resort to rancorous and uncivil situations which inhibits the rights of individuals to vote for the candidate of their choice, as this process will further divide us than unite members of our party.

In conclusion we the Senators-Elect of Like Minds wish to state categorically that we will participate only in the constitutional election scheduled for Tuesday, the 9th of June 2015 in line with the rules of the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
We by this press release invite the media to a joint press conference by the 65 Senators-Elect of Like Minds drawn from across party lines on Monday morning, the 8thof June 2015

SIGNED,
Senator-Elect Dino Melaye Senator-Elect Ahmed Rufai Sani
ON BEHALF OF SENATORS-ELECTS OF LIKE MINDS

Cleverly wetin dey do you? na poverty? only you put story and only you dey book space? TB JOSHUAAA needs to pray for you.

Once upon a time, Olusegun Obasanjo wanted to tamper with our constitution so he can rule for a third time, we all fought him in our little ways till he ran to his farm.

The Saraki's should go back to the hole they crawled put from. We cannot keep recycling the same old thieves that dragged us back in our last political dispensation. The son of OLOYE should allow a fresh hand to be the Senate President, he has been a Governor and many other things so already a old wine.

Sai Buhari.

Like mind, lol,it sound like the name of a runz group.

Well to topic: Dino is just the north central version of the lionparrot of ubima, and keeps crying unnecessary foul. And as for saraki, he should forget that post and continue running d affairs of his state like his personal PS4, as kwara people don accept their defeat for him hand.

Saraki! Saraki!Saraki!

Really Saraki has lost this one. Saraki is a light weight in national politics. Saraki is only relevant when the Northwest is against the Southwest. This guy only controls and dominates 1 State or 1 senatorial district. Which is kwara Central. Not a match for Jagaban.
