what is your point? because it also says the election of the Sp is by "members of the house" The same way Saraki was elected when half of the house were absent, he can be removed if half of the house are absent.

I will never be a fan of Saraki because i see him as someone that can sell his family to achieve his aim... The meeting with the president was scheduled the same time with the senate election....You dont have to be economical with the truth... APC was in crisis that period and it wasnt only Saraki that didnt go for the meeting, that was how the election went ahead... only Saraki and PDP senators wouldnt have been able to do shit that day without the support of few senators fro APC

The blame for what Nigeria has become falls on you and me. Not Buhari, not Jonathan, not Obasanjo and definitely not Abacha.

Our wickedness stinks to the heavens as we go about our daily lives, pulling down everyone and everything to become rich. We import substandard products, fake drugs and expired baby food unfit for human consumption and we have the nerve to complain about leadership?

We even steal from widows, orphans, and refugees. We take their food and sell it for profit. No conscience. Nothing is sacred. No one is spared. We build substandard roads, schools, houses, hospitals, all for profit at the expense of human life;an invaluable item which all our profit and contract sum cannot buy.

One would think this behavior is reserved for urchins but it would surprise you that this is the character of many decent looking people who appear to be normal but are not any better than Boko Haram members. They are church members, Muslims, husbands, wives and sadly youths.

We pervert justice and pretend we do not know right from wrong just to serve our selfish interests. Slave traders pale in comparison to what we do to ourselves. We are wickedness personified. So much hatred flows in our blood and we transfer it to our children. It's evident in what we say and do.

We have fasting and prayer sessions all year long, night vigils and deliverance when the actual problem is us. We simply cannot learn to love others . It is me, me, me. That is all that ever matters. It is sickening. Anyone who cannot love has no business in politics, Government and in Nigeria. Until we understand this, we will continue on this path of destruction.

I can Change, You can Change, They can Change and We can Change by Sharing and Spreading this message....Change starts with Me....

May Almighty God bless you. Am over happy with your post. Nigeria need you. Thanks once again.

educate yourself in speaking without shouting or insults. it's only people with low IQ that resort to replies by insulting and shouting. I am simply pointing out that there is nothing in the law that states the all members of the house must be present or even half. Personally I dont care if Saraki is impeached or not and i dont know why APC are so obsessed with removing him when he only has 9 months left. 1 am just telling you the rules. the rules vor electing Sp is 1/2 of those present and to remove 2/3rds of those present.

And that is why the traitor has been hounded from court room to court room for the past 3 years.

Trust me he has had the most turbulent senate presidency ever.

Let us agree that both Saraki and Akpabio are corrupt and thieves, but Saraki was made Senate President through APC while Akapabio was also made Minority leader in PDP, but while the latter was to defect from PDP, he voluntarily resigned from the Minority leader, but the former, despite his conspiracy before he defected to PDP, yet he insisted not to relinquish his position acquired through his former Party.
I think, Akpabio is more honourable than Saraki

Or what do you think?
Saraki is nothing but criminal

True that! I wonder why some Nigerians are supporting him, when he is the architect of this commotion. How do you plan to preside over the majority when you are from the minority.
Can we all imagine what PDP would have done if David Mark had done this during Jonathan’s regime!
I am worried for Nigeria because she’s sitting on a time bomb, but most people aren’t seeing it.
Saraki should just step down for the sake of peace, if he truly cares for the country.The country cannot be brought to a standstill because of one person’s selfish ambition.

PaChukwudi44:


THOSE ARE YOUR OWN WORDS.FORTUNATELY WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION TO FOLLOW AND NOT YOUR WORDS

The jury is still out on that, whether it is 2/3rd of all elected members or 2/3rd of seating members. The constitution simply said 2/3rd of members of the house and does not say members currently seating in the house present or elected members of the house.

We all know that, not all members attend meetings all the time, so the jury is still out on this.

The bottom line is; APC had the opportunity to challenge this in court when Saraki was elected unanimously by 57 votes, which fall short of the 75 needed to meet the 2/3rd watermark;but they chicken, not only backed down on their threat to go to court, but accepted Saraki as their President.

They should not be now crying fowl, if Saraki is holding the 2/3rd watermark over their head. It simply means Saraki is smarter than them and is running circles around them from both sides of the law and constitution.

If they are apt and want to be taken seriously; they should play Saraki’s game.... pay him back with the same coin by using the 1/3 quorum watermark that Saraki exploited to be elected to also impeach him...that is, they should work across the aisle as Saraki did, get at least 55 Senators to form a quorum and have all vote unanimously to impeach Saraki, then let Saraki go to court to argue 2/3rd of elected members.
