Akpabio said the PDP caucus staged a walk-out during the confirmation of a former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, and 17 others because they did not want to participate in illegality



Senators elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party on Wednesday said they never supported emergence of the President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
They said the luck Saraki had was that he was returned unopposed as Senate president.
The Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio, made this known on Thursday.
Akpabio said the PDP caucus staged a walk-out during the confirmation of a former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, and 17 others because they did not want to participate in illegality.
He added that the PDP senators decided not to participate i‎n what he described as a “charade confirmation” because they have responsibilities to Nigerians.
According to him: “We never supported Saraki during the election because he was returned unopposed.
“We staged a walk-out because we felt that there is total breach in the law.
“You will notice that our colleagues never wanted to hear our views.”


We never supported Saraki's emergence as Senate president - PDP senators‎ -

Akpabio is a joker who should not be taking seriously. They never supported him but they keep following him to CCT for his trial.

What does Akpabio and Jimi Agbaje have in common? The more they talk, the more you realize they ain't that smart afterall

Yeye people. Why won't they stage a walk out when their plans is not walking out has planned.

Dirty PDP

Akpabio and PDP are fat liars. Story of pot calling kettle black. They are all in soup now.

Jokers PLC!

Too late to wail when the head is cut off

Abeg leave matter for Matthias joor. See who is talking!!!!

I hate PDP and it's people with passion

Heheheheheheh

Seriously akpabio does not deserve the position of minority leader. Its so obvious he can't lead PDP in the Senate.

PDP=APC-buhari
Buhari=Indi Amin+Abacha+Shekau
ie buhari worse than APC+PDP

Wailing wailers medicine after death.

You never supported his emergence but you always support his corrupt practices. You are always the one defending his corrupt past.

You are a first rate bigot, that's all. Buhari is equal to Shekau and Abacha and Indi Amin how and why? Because he is a Muslim from the north? I know you would come back and try to be intelligent with your rubbish, go ahead and give it a shot. And I bet PDP and Jonathan are Mother Theresa, keep speaking as if you never left the bush.

My thoughts exactly!
Anyway, they have only their gullible and hypnotised followers to deceive and misinform.

Akpabio becoming a minority leader and a reflection of PDP in the 8th Senate remains the worst strategy of the PDP is recent time.

For the next 4yrs, Nigerians will feed PDP crumbs on dirty floor for them to understand what we endured in their 16yrs of misrule.

God bless Nigeria. Sai Amaechi!

Is ur stupidity inborn or you just learnt here on nairaland??

Akpbio is inexperienced and sincerely speaking does not deserve to the minority leader. With him as the leader, pdp will crumble in a year.

Always had a view that Akpabio isn't smart after all, he talks too much for a politician...GEJ lost it the day he choosed to front Akpabio instead of Sen Liyel Imoke as the leader of PDP in the SS and his closest associate...
Sen Liyel is a politician to the core, less talk more of action...

You guys have seen nothing. Then saraki is a one man army right. Dumb party with dumb people as members

There they are doing what they do best - wail.
I believe you will not support him at the CCT anymore too.

This party will continue to lie and deceive. Thank God they have being booted out at the center.

Wicked souls=PDP.

Bukola Saraki and the apc, APC Crises

Apc crises
Why the trouble in the ruling all progressive congress, will apc be better than the people’s Democratic Party. In 1999 when Nigerian came under democracy the ruling party then pdp, was very much united and the party body as the final say unlike what we are now seeing in the all progress congress. The whole senate president is n mess with his party chieftain and the presidency continue to play I don’t care attitude.
We all know what tore the people democratic party, it was internal crises, in fact most Nigerians know that pdp was the problem of pdp and pdp destroy itself,. If without the contribution of key pdp figures like Rotimi Ameachi, former vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Rabilu Musa Kwankwaso, the then new pdp senators and members of the lower chamber, the contribution of the g7 governors as well continue reading
