Where are the jagaban ass lickers. Just shows the guy is still a local champion. As long as the we yourbas has sold nigeria back to the fulanis let us help them complete it. So it would backfire. These supporters of APC has taken jonathan calm and transparent govt as cluelessness. But made the big mistake to associate it with the whole of PDP. Time to cut the oju obo of lagos to size. Let's tell him he is a local champion.

This is unacceptable!
Hasty Nomination.
Hurried assumption of office.


Saraki, just probably bit more than He can chew.


Or, what if Saraki was Tinubu's choice?

No No No, He is not! APC backed down when they knew they have lost the batle and did not want to lose saraki and his people to opposition again!! You lives are simply about Tinubu? ah eh eh....

Then how can you explain out what happened at the weekend. Storm in a teacup eh. My man, there is a power struggle for the soul of the party, between the west and the north, between loyalists and independent. You cannot deny that.

APC legislators thought they could postpone the seating of the House but David Markk pressed on. David Mark has the power to call NASS and he did. Buhari could not stop dat.


PDP nominated Saraki without APC legislator that is why the house was scanty.


Go hide your face in shame, PDP wins.

Why should i hide my face in shame. Am neither a PDP nor APC supporter. Am only an electorate and i vote who ever i think in my heart is the best.

You sound like a PDP supporter, but i can only ask you one questions. What have you gained from any of the political party that is tangible.

I just want to advice you, follow your consence, vote wisely and allow them to play the politics.

Umbrella or Broom... Nigeria will continue

The truth is APC actually showed uncommon political maturity. They realised they made a miscalculation by conducting a primary for the senate seat- an act that led to uprising and PDP wanted taking advantage of. They saw that all PDP just wants more than anything isn't the senate seat, but spoiling the goodwill and reputation of APC. The chess players in APC saw this and decided to outsmart their opponents. They know in politics, reputation and public perception is everything. They saw that the dent in their name will be higher if Lawan is forcefully inaugurated. So they played the fool and made a hard decision of begging every Ahmed Lawan supporters to sheath their sword and allow Saraki be the Senate president just to send a message that APC is truly a democratic party that elevates peace over any other thing. Its the opposite message PDP wanted the public to see so that they can use it as their political campaign in the future. At the end, it was a checkmate - APC won again.

It doesn't make sense.

APC conducted a mock primary to select a "sole candidate" for the office of the Senate President.

In spite of the warning that it is unconstitutional and against any common sense to do so, they went ahead threatening everyone.

They thought they were dealing with some Lagos and South West cowards who are owned by a single man.

APC refused to present its sole candidate on the day of election.

That's massive defeat there my friend.

Cowards!

The House is more united now. Check tins dis way, Saraki won unopposed abi. Meaning der was no contest at all. Contrary to wat Apc made u guys believe dat dey are having internal crisis. Crisis my foot. Wat APC wants is to finally sideline and relegate PDP to d abyss of Political oblivion. Gbagaun!. Heheheheh. D more you look, d less you see. APC is in control. Fine one from APC.

I see. What were they doing there. I thought this was unanimous. I thought this was the day of reckoning. So this matter is not settled. Hmmm.
