Senate was divided along party lines on Wednesday over a point of order to debate on alleged electoral malpractices brought by Senator Dino Melaye representing Kogi West Senatorial District.

Dino had on the point of order sought the leave of the red Chambers to bring a motion to the effect that election held on 23rd February and 9th March was militarised

The lawmaker wanted the motion discussed for posterity sake, saying that it would be cowardice for Senators to close eyes to brazen electoral malpractices.

“Mr. President, distinguished colleagues I rise this morning through Order 42 as a true representative of the people to bring to attention of the Senate on elections held on 23rd February and 9th March, 2019.”

“I want to say, the elections were militarized and I want the Senate to discuss this matter for posterity sake.”

“If this matter is discussed and reasons for military operation is discovered, Mr. President can be properly advised. ”

“Please permit me, Mr. Senate President, to bring a full motion on another legislative day. ”

Immediately, the matter was put to voice votes by the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, there was thunderous” nay”, suggesting that the chamber wouldn’t want elections debated particularly the APC lawmakers.

Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, however, argued that the motion having come through Order 42 needed one fifth to be sustained, hence, he ordered Dino to bring the motion on the next legislative day.

Effort by the Senate leader, Ahmed Lawan and Senator Jibrin Barau to turn down the motion did not yield results as the Senate President insisted that the motion was in accordance with the rules of the Senate.

Dino my man

The slayer of Tinubu

The future governor of Kogi

And the blaster of Buhari

Welcome back sir.

Watch as Bukola Saraki will try to turn the legislators against the executives these few days that is left for him, he will try everything to divide the Senate, he will instigate Senators to move controversial motion but he will fail, the disgrace he suffer will be small compared to the one that is coming upon him.

At the moment he is desperate and bitter more than he used to be, y'all should wait & see what will happen in the red chambers but no matter what he does he will fail.

9th senate will be hard for Dino.

His big humiliations loading

Am happy this guy made it back to the senate one of the fearless senator we have.80% of them there will never stand up to talk not to talk about moving a motion or sponsoring a bill. The only time you hear them talk is where the is a voice vote “ those in support say Hi and those against say Nay” their voice is always the loudest.

The guy is right but people dont like truth.

A big shame to all APC senators. For posterity's sake, they couldn't for once put aside their political differences and debate a solution to the rape of our democracy practiced on February 23rd? Karma is waiting for you all

You don't know the meaning of disgrace.
It is amateurs like you who think losing a match is a disgrace instead of seeing it as part of the game.
Do you really think that many APC senators that are not returning give a crap about Buhari or APC?

dino melaye always causing trouble

nonsense people

Isn't obvious to the deaf and blind that the elections were militarized?

helinues:
9th senate will be hard for Dino.

His big humiliations loading

Do you guys even check the dictionary before using a word?
What humiliation.
I blame the Nigerian educational system for turning out civic illiterates who
don't know that the Senate floor is for debate and not some army barracks where
commands are issued.

If a motion is raised and rejected, it is not humiliation, it is part of the process.
