A huge earthquake has shattered Nepal on Saturday, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. As night fell the death toll has already hit 700 people, with the magnitude 7.8 quake also causing deaths in neighboring countries.

there are people protocols are breached for. What happened under yaradua was a move to break himself from obj. But, BUHARI is a naturally grateful person. He knows what Tinubu's style of godfatherism has done in the southwest and, won't wan to turn his back on him in that quick succession. We all know Tinubu is a better person than obj. You can see why yaradua subjected obj to protocols and Tinubu might have them breached for him.

Unfortunately, you don't really know who Buhari is. Even Osibanjo may not enjoy this free accessibility to Buhari.

Let us wait for May 29.

Go ask Obasanjo about Yaradua and Goodluck how they schemed him out of their govts even though OBJ handpicked and supported them both to the presidency. Obasanjo was helpless because he had no single stake in the national assembly.

Come may 29 protocol will demand that Tinubu can not see Buhari whenever he desires.

Tinubu's controll of the house is not only to check buhari but also to remain actively relevant in a Buhari presidency acting as a go between buhari and the house
Shut up........You know Nothing about Tinubu(Jagaban Borgu) the only man in opposition since 1999,Focused and determine...............

Tinubu's interest represented in Vice - president, senate leader and speakers. + Lagos and osun state Government. Only one man?

Buhari being smart need senate president and deputy speaker to protect himself from tinubu over throwing him.

South East get only appointed position in the party, which makes it easy to be kicked out whenever they fumble


South south also in same position only the fact that they will get one elective position in the house of Representatives and giving Ameachi an appointment that was the only reason for the fight to kick his kinsman from a highly exalted position of the president.

I see Tinubu who was backing Akume order his puppets to vote against the APC.

A northeast senate president will make Buhari inviscible and too powerful.

Tinubu will want to check Buhari's new political base.

Just wish to state that as beautiful as your write up seems to have looked to you,it failed to take cognizance of the fact that the minority party can never Lead the senate or house.

There were reps elected from Edo, so i suspect an Edo man gets the role.

Can some of you just stop this conspiracy theory and scare-mongering

You have been at this style since APC was in embryo till they got formed via merger,went for Primaries,picked their candidates and running-mates,stood for election which they won

Y'all have been looking for that one thing that will cause APC to stumble....yet these people have continued to soldier on and weather the storm

Most of you cried yourselves hoarse about Buhari being a devil who should never be elected by Nigerians,now God has destroyed your Ahitophelian counsel...the man is on his way to being sworn in

In Lagos,y'all took on Fashola and consistently ridiculed him because you felt he didnt engage in gidigbo fight with Tinubu to 'free' himself.....i wonder if he told you he was under bondage

Also,because of Tinubu y'all constituted yourselves to demons against the candidature of Akinwunmi Ambode by adopting the Charlatan called Jimi 'Just Kidding' Agbaje....yet Ambode ti de

Now you are back to heckling and riling Tinubu....a man who even does not know about y'all existence

You don't get to know people by simply voting them during election.

Buhari has used Tinubu to accomplish his long-time ambition. Once he is sworn in, Tinubu may find it difficult reaching him on phone.

I bet you, there is nothing Tinubu can do. He will become relevant again in 2019 when the SW votes will be needed again.

Yorubas will be left with no option than to vote (Tinubu or no Tinubu), since they still have a spare tire (VP) position.

The North has no regard for other regions. They believe Nigeria belongs to them.

It is very clear that Nigeria has divided into 2 ethnicity. Hausa/fulani and Yoruba. The greed has just began. Desperate power mongers got what they wanted.

President and Senate President = North
Vice President and Speaker HOR = S. West

How can Nigeria unite with this? I'm also from the North but I sincerely don't support the greed APC are preaching.

The APC victory came from the North (East and West) and the South west. That is why they are given the principal roles.

APC zones Senate presidency to North-East, Speakership to South West



Following resolutions at the APC leadership meeting in Abuja on Wednesday, April 21; which mandated the party to come up with a more acceptable zoning formula, there are strong indications that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has come up with a new zoning arrangement.

The new zoning structure, a copy of which was seen by our correspondent, takes cognisance of performance, integrity, legislative experience and ranking in considering candidates for National Assembly positions.

The new zoning formula cedes the Senate Presidency to the North-east while the Speaker goes to the South-west.


The position of Senate Leader went to the North-west while the deputy Senate President went to North-central.

Stakeholders privy to the new zoning formula from the North west and North east expressed delight with the new arrangement while some members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) who know of the new arrangement but not mandated to speak said: “the new zoning formula is with our leaders. We only await directives to make it public.”

Meanwhile, three lawmakers eyeing the Senate Presidency from the North central are yet to respond to journalists enquiries on the party’s new zoning arrangement.

The proposed zoning table is presented below:

SOURCE:http://dailypost.ng/2015/04/25/apc-zones-senate-presidency-to-north-east-speakership-to-south-west/

Zoning or no zoning, the NE deserves to be well compensated absolutely. This is the region that suffered the incompetency of the GEJ government the most; and, at the risk of their lives, the people trooped out enmasse to massively vote for the Buhari presidency.
