I think impeachment or resignation will definitely deepen the division already rooted in every aspect of life in the so called sham project Nigeria. I feel the Igbo’s should not be distracted by the current event, although, we need our people to be part of governance but personally those positions whether senate president or deputy is not really our problem, it will not impact much on our future as a progressive people. Nigeria as a nation has no structure or foundation and all positive efforts to redirect and reinvigorate Nigeria has been frustrated by those benefiting from the current structural mess since independent
I believe the right thing for the Igbo’s to do at this time is to galvanize efforts locally and internationally in exposing the evils Nigerian state has been tormenting on them by creating awareness locally and international demanding for the implementation of just concluded national conference or demanding a referendum for the people of Biafra region to determine their destiny. We have to engage in this project with peaceful approach, mounting demonstration locally and internationally to gather support to free our people from this entrenchment.
We have to utilize the opportunity presented by our people scattering all over the world to reach out to them and agree on consistent peaceful demonstration every three months to kick start this new face of struggle for freedom, equality and justice for all. This initiative will put Nigerian state locally and internationally in news headline which will eventually open up discussion locally and internationally on our demand. We can’t afford to continue to die in silence any more.

Written by Musa Abdullahi Krishi

Senate President Bukola Saraki on Wednesday stopped an attempt to nullify the election of Senator Ike Ekweremadu as deputy Senate president.

Ekweremadu who is of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) became deputy Senate president in an All Progressives Congress (APC) dominated Senate on June 9, in what appeared like a coup to some senators of the party who were at the International Conference Centers to attend a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.

At Wedensday's plenary, Senator Kabiru Marafa raised a point of order where he observed that the election of Ekweremadu was in breach of the Senate standing rules.

He said the rules that the senate was using were initiated in 2011, which provides that an election into any of the presiding offices in the red chamber shall be via division and not secret ballot where two contestants are vying for any of the positions.

He observed however that Ekweremadu's election was done through secret ballot where he defeated Senator Ali Ndume of the APC. He wondered when the rules were amended and requested for an explanation from Saraki.

However, Saraki ruled him out of order, citing the Senate rules which provide that if a matter on presiding officer's election has been taken
care of, such cannot be considered any longer.


Wise one.
He knows that what affects his deputy, can as well be binding on him.
Removing Ekweremadu would have bn the easiest way to unseat Saraki.

Saraki ain't just smart, the dude is intelligent!

what is keeping saraki is not APC members but 59 PDP senators.
a fall of Ekweremadu =a fall of Saraki.
i love his ingenuity and smartness.
he is a modern day politician.


@bolded,

Modern day what...? shocked I choose not to dress u down considering dat 9ja kind of politics is all u 've always known but I still think u need some enlightenment so u can understand dat none of dis robbers called politicians merits being referred to as modern day politician.

Learn abt other credible democracy(s) & u will knw dat 9ja ppl deserve better.

Saraki teaching APC skills he learnt from PDP. Once a PDP always a PDP. The true APCs are Tinubu and President Buhari.

A lots of intrigues are yet to fall in line. We are watching

Don't say dat again! Pa Buhari is CPC at heart!!!

He should just return to PDP and let us hear word abeg!

@bolded,

He cannot try it wallahi ! A wise politician will always roll wit d winning team(party) & for argument sake influence still rests wit APC @d mo...gerrit?

You should watch the parliamentary sessions of UK and Australia, and US senate , it is same thing everywhere
Sure the US republicans shut down the government for several hours last year

@sweetgala,

I don't know much about US senate modus operandi or that of Aussie but UK parliament is far more modest than that of 9ja so plz & plz don't mis-inform the audience.

What we are seeing here in 9ja senate is gross incompetence & pure MADNESS !

Do you mean if his "party-men" are out of order, he should not rule them out of order simply because they are his " party-men"?
For your information, Saraki will only go higher and higher in politics, more people love him now than before.
Wike will govern Rivers State for 8years, maybe you would have been dead by then, if you don't want to see him as the Governor for that long.
In conclusion, hatred is your comparative advantage. I will always fight those that express hatred on this plateform.

Hehehe. . . Death can come knocking at any time so I'm never afraid of death. Unlike cowards like you who would believe that only old men like Buhari would die leaving the young ones to live. Whether I like Wike/Saraki or not, if death comes knocking, I can't stop it. All we pray for is long-life and prosperity. So shove you death threat where the sun does not shine.

Simply tell us that TANdroids like you are loving Saraki more than ever before, not well-meaning Nigerians!
