Dogara has the backing of all nothern elites & politicians... So no shaking for him.

he and saraki also have the backing of the pdp caucus,the pdp caucuses in the senate and house will work with any group or individual against tinubu . So as the game is now ,tinubu boys have lost out in the senate and house of reps .

onatisi:
you mean if ththey dont give sw the house leader that is the end of the party?bros forget oooo,the matter has gone beyond that level.if tinubu and gbaja wants the house leader slot then they should prevail on the yoruba man occupying the deputy seat to vacate so that another region can take that aeat.and secondly why should the house leadership be mandatorily be zoned to thr sw?how reps do they have in the housein offer to command that authority?tinubu and his boys just have to accept whatever is given to them

it goes beyond prevailing on the yoruba man to step down as deputy chair, its obvious he won't,Dogara plated politics by using the man from Osun to divide the vote from SW,definitely if the man step down its in better interest of SW,being deputy or vice does not put your in charge of anything, the way it is now no Yoruba man is in charge of any portfolio, truth must be said,Saraki is not Yoruba he is half fulani half Yoruba he switch allegiance at will.

End of the party indeed!!! You people really over-estimate your political relevance.I see you people learnt nothing from the June 9 Pummelling of your local champion

I really don't know when you become the champion of APC,its not a matter of Political relevance, no region should take the other for granted,If Tinubu move out of APC now PDP will take over power in 2019, i know that's your wish and it won't come true in Jesus name,can I get a Amen from you?

and what's the main reason of the PDP to work against Tinubu boys if not to ground the political machinery of the APC.

this is the reason why i said you haven't been following the situation in the house of reps, immediately dogara won the speaker ship election among the reps ,right there on the floor of the house he went to gbajamila and offered him the deputy speaker ship position , gbajamila consulted with his boys and came back to reject the offer, immediately he did that another south west rep took up the offer, so hois this gbajamila fault?you are looking at the whole issue as a yoruba affair, remember the south west dont even control the majority among apc reps, so on what basis should dogara and saraki caving into their demands all the time ?and remember,gbajamila and tinubu faction dont even represent the whole of the south west because ekiti reps are pdp and likewise some reps from ondo. so why should gbajamila and tinubu be the dictating voice for the south west

Thank you,at no point was Gbaja offered the deputy speakership even if he was offered and he rejected,thats his prerogative,Lasun just like Dogara renegade on the party directive, alot of blocks made up APC just like a lot of blocks also made up PDP although they are much more cohesive thus days than the former, Tinubu's bloc in APC cannot be put at the back side,its actually the foundation of the current APC, yes the influence of Tinubu has to be curtailed, he brought this to himself, if he had allowed all the parties to campaign and let them choose their own leaders this problem won't arise,but two wrongs don't make a right,Dogara can still compensate his supporters with house committees,excluding Tinubu 's men is a recipe for disaster.Dogara's argument dies not hold water,tge principle of Federal Character can not be enforced in the Assembly nor can get direct or zone positions, he does not have that power.

unrepentant speaker
