Why APC Postponed NASS Inauguration- Vanguard by Nobody: 9:57am On Jun 09, 2015
ABUJA-MORE facts emerged Tuesday why the
All Progressives Congress, APC, postponed the
inauguration of the 8th Assembly.
Sources close to the party told Vanguard that
the adoption of Senator Ike Ekweramadu as
Senator Bukola Saraki’s deputy invoked the
wrath of the APC leadership and ordered that
the inauguration should be shifted to a later
date.
According to one of the sources, the party never
bargained for a diluted government in whatever
level and would do everything to stop the anti-
party activities of some of their members.
He said,”honestly we never expected this sudden
interest of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP
that had initially said it was not interested in
NASS leadership to now start championing it”.
“We got hint of this development at about 4.am
and had to swing into action”.
“This sudden interest of the PDP was why we
shifted the inauguration and ensure we put the
House in order before another date will be
scheduled”.
“As you know the Hon Yakubu Dogara camp
went too far in all they have done in the last
two weeks heating the polity unnecessarily for
no just cause”.
“On Monday night we had a parade of those
that will vote for Hon Femi Gbajabiamila and
203 lawmakers signified their interest so it
could have been a done deal if not for the
antics of some of us who want power by all
means”.
“Nigerians did not vote for a diluted
government rather they voted for change and a
positive change for that matter”.
“One thing I can assure you of is that the APC
will cross this bridge without a stain and the
PDP will woefully fail”.
Another source also spoke in the same vein
saying”we can’t inaugurate the House for now
until we get a clear signal that the coast is clear

a diluted government is still a change from the "Concentrated" government we have seen when PDP held sway in both the Executive and Legislative arms of government. I would even prefer an opposition as legislative to truly work the "Check and Balance" job without party interference

Saraki, though in APC, has secretly been working hand-in-hand with PDP. I bet if the inauguration had not been postponed, Saraki would have won that seat with Ekweremadu as running mate. One thing is certain, Saraki's antics has further confirmed the reason Tinubu objected to his candidature.

With the latest statement allegedly made by Saraki calling Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, a mere Commissioner, I don't think Nigeria is prepared to have an arrogant Senate President like the Fulani/Yoruba man.

After all said and done, only their interests matter to them either APC or PDP.
