pelepeleb:


Good let him murder Bukola Saraki as people were murdered when he was the governor of Kwara state when his father was sick. he claimed there was nothing like that. God c u

Pelepele please make up your mind on your rumour peddling. One minute you say his father called him thief, the next minute you say he killed people when his father was sick. You think he is like you that believes in fetish and lives by rumours? Saraki is MVP, nothing do am. The only man in Nigeria that united NASS. Take it or leave it, Tinubu was looking down on NASS by sending his wife to be senator. Ojuyobo ojukokoro Thief-nubu did not know he wanted NASS until Saraki took it. Yoruba people call that ojukokoro. Tinubu is a kenimani. Failed politician

Gbawe:


Entirely correct. I actually feel embarrassed for those from the SE obsessed with Tinubu, constantly wishing him harm and are always keen to point the finger of blame at him. Asiwaju has no time for them and continues to do his thing while remaining a mentor to politicians who want to succeed in the very murky and mercilessly treacherous water of Nigerian politics. Is Saraki a saint? Even if Tinubu is behind the travails of Saraki, can some emotional folks tell us whether Saraki did wrong or not?

Throughout the world, because politics is an arena of gladiators, politicians plot to bring down their enemies daily. That is a political fact mature and pragmatic folks accept. If you give your political opponents that you treacherously backstabbed 'ammunition' then why scream if they use it to nail you after you stepped out of line and arrogantly trod on powerful toes as if you are invincible? When Saraki was busy conducting a treacherous and deceitful election, while embarrassing his Party before the world, did people expect the APC to accept such an embarrassment that would only set an international precedence confirming the ruling Party as weak and impotent? It seems some emotional folks don't understand how politics is played ruthlessly around the world, to include even in the finest and oldest democracies, before they come here boring about Tinubu this and Asiwaju that. As if we do not know that the constant mention of Tinubu is the painful wailing of those envious of the man's political brilliance and ability.

I align you with the nitty witty philosophers, spot on bro. Saraki can cry me a river.

Let us face d reality saraki is a betrayer to d party in general so he deserve punishment

5starmilitant:


What about funsho Williams

Jagabat is a confirm murderer

huh ebelike say yu dey when the killing was on. can yu stand for us as a witness? that will help us to fight tinubu

Now, Tinubu and co have helped Buhari get to Aso Rock. They used all possible dirty tricks. Congrats to them.

But in all honesty, are Baba Onikeke, Nma Nkechi, Mama Hauwa & Papa Ekaette better off today than they were a year ago?

Are they enjoying better food, better roads, better electricity, better health care and better security, is the economic prospect better?

Does the future look brighter for their children now than it was a year ago?

White people said something long ago: that black people like to have power but they don't know how to use it to help their people.

So before you hail their power grab, first think how well they using that power.

TijaniAbu:


Could "Tinubu's APC" have won the election without Saraki's NPDP? Keep fooling yourselves, 2019 is not far away. No light no fuel no jobs no water no money but you are fighting Saraki? NASS is the only thing working in Nigeria now. Keep making Saraki popular, he is the MVP - Most Valuable Politician

had he not joined APC Saraki would have lost woefully in Kwara. I am not against his SP but I am totally against his anti party stance. Saraki knows where his battle is coming from and he knows that Tinubu is not his problem... He only weave religious sentiment for public sympathy. I dont think PDP Kwara that initiated the CCT case are Tinubus men. Asiwaju to me doesnt look like a vengeful politician, infact he is bridge builder that believe in alliance. Like Saraki like Atiku, they know who their hunter is but they take pleasure in castigating Tinubu because they see him as an easy target. Saraki want Tinubu to influence things yet he found pleasure in disparaging him. Dont worry, Saraki will go the way Bode George...and as usual they will blame Tinubu for jailing him.. Meanwhile the real drummer will continue to dictate the tune. In so far the "Atiku will not become president" creed still stand Saraki will be jailed if he refused to step down and enjoy his senate largese. As usual there will always be the Jew tribe to call upon on his way to jail. The moslem-moslem ticket jibe was directed to the Jew and CAN but it wont work

Alphaoscar:
Saraki is just been silly and trying to blame
Tinubu for his troubles
He was arraigned on a very different matter
to Tinubu. Tinubu was arraigned for having
foreign accounts as a governor and he was
able to prove it that all the accounts were
opened and operated years before his
election as a governor and the accounts were
not serviced throughout his tenure.
While Saraki is facing the law for
deliberately not declaring his assets and
corruption.
His other attempt at roping in Tinubu is
also not catchy rather further exposed him
as unloyal partyman. (Assuming its true)
That Tinubu aspired to be buhari's deputy
or supported a Muslim-Muslum ticket which
is never a crime but Tinubu surrendered his
aspirations in the interest of the party and
still make peace with everyone including
Saraki himself unlike Saraki who shunned
the party at many times , ganged up against
the opposition and still doing it,
Saraki should just shut it and face his
warrant and let Tinubu be.

Bro you are an impact keep it up...Thanks

noblebaba:
Firstly Tinubu doesn't want any politician to be rated above him,secondly he was eyeing the number two position which saraki does not agree with which is muslim/muslim ticket if he had succeded to be number two apc would have lost because of religion,thirdly he has someone in mind to occupy where saraki is sitting presently whom he can easily control,Tinubu may not be in the present cabinet but u and I knew that he is the most powerful in Apc buhari is just learning politics and tinubu is an expert without living bourdilon he knew whom to give instructions to and if u don't coperate forget your sit.so we all knew that if tinubu want saraki to be discharge tomorow he can do it and since he has not say anything then silence means I'm behind it shikena

Haa Mogbe!! Is this one seff one of the leaders of tomorrow?? This one that is just KNEWing everything! Are we even sure its REVOLUTION Nigeria needs and not EVOLUTION?

Bola Tinubu i know is a formal governor of Lagos state


Please correct yourself.

Omotaday:
Im an Ardent reader of this section. I have also been following the issue of Saraki. I need clarification on some issues. Why is everyone poiting accusing finger at Bola Tinubu? The Bola Tinubu i know is a formal governor of Lagos state and also a veteran politician, the last time i check he is not part of the federal executives, he is not a minister of justice, he is not the president of this country. Why then do people think he could have had the power to be punishing Saraki currently through the judiciary? Does he have the control over the FG and its arms? Why is everyone thinking he is behind Saraki case? Why is everyone blaming him for Saraki woes? Please i need reasonable clarifications.

He is Buhari's godfather.

Omotaday:
He is one of the founding member of the party, ok but what power does it have to be the one to choose the senate president ? Why him? We have Atiku, Bisi Akande, Obj, Buhari in this same party.



i'm sorry for all the errors up there, I was typing too fast.

Next time you substitute the pidgin word 'badberism' with the word MENSRE.

Thaank you.

Because Nigerians hate taking responsibility for their own actions and problems. They like to blame someone else!

How could a thief who was caught red-handed blame someone else? It shows the terrible level of mental deterioration you could only find in Nigeria!

Alphaoscar:
I also find it difficult to understand why people always find it difficult to link Tinubu to every problems befalling his real or perceived political enemies.

Tinubu that we all know and judging from his antecedent is not someone that always fight his enemies to death and always mend fences with his opponents once the contest is over and forgives easily. e.g. Femi Pedro , Afikuyomi , Oyinlola, Obj , Atiku , Agbaje, Dokpesi , Osoba and many numerous to mention.


Saraki is his personal enemy and he should learn to carry his cross without blaming others for his evil deeds.

Unfortunately Engr. Funsho Williams is DEAD after he was brutally MURDERED in cold blood in 2006, which ensured that then-political-neophyte Barawo Rogue Fashole, BRF's victory to protect the secrets of our Asiwaju Asiwere of agberos.

Can you see how stupid and devilishly bigoted you are?. Is it South Easterners that referred Saraki's case as semblance to that of Tinubu's and requested Saraki be acquitted the way Tinubu was acquitted?. If you aren't a Scum dummy you would have known that in history of Nigeria SE produced the first governor general ...Even the first military leader. simply put that whatever you thinks your cowardice race is achieving now in political positions,the SE have achieved that long time ago..Don't forget Alex Ekwueme was a civilian V.P .. Idiot like you without any tested history..

Seunjungle:
Why people so soon forget things?

People have forget to realise that Mr President himself find it difficult to hold meeting with Saraki after manipulated its way to the seat of Sen. Pres which was against the will of the ruling party?

Do Buhari want Saraki to remain there?

Do their party want Sariki to remain there?

Likewise, Jagaban as their party leader will never want Sariki to be there too because Bukola went to the last length against them.

Those pointing to Jagaban are bias!

They don't know the real sense and the rules of the game!

APC can not be that stupid to be watching it's enemies (PDP camp) to take measures over its affair.. NO!

Where's Tinubu's fault over there?

Pride kills Bukola Saraki!

Don't forget that Bukola fought his father and the entire family in other to get power?

Same he did to his bloods also to his entire Party's will....but, this one blocks his pharyngeal cavity!

Had it been Bukola applied as Dogara did according to party's will after he (Dogara) went against them, Bukolas case would have been simple.

Nobody is witch hunting Saraki but pride doing so!

Let Jagaban be!!!!

Great point you are making here but to an emotional people. Some forget Buhari is a very stubborn and resolute character, far more than Tinubu, who can be very unforgiving of those he feels insult or belittle him. He is the same man who divorced his wife because she accepted financial assistance from IBB while Buhari was languishing in Jail. If Buhari considered that act of his wife treacherous then what will he have made of Saraki's Machiavellian actions that disgraced Buhari and the APC in the eyes of the world?

Is that the sort of President that Tinubu, even with his influence, will dictate to? For some Jagaban must be blamed by all means and we know why. Yet the fact as we all know shows there is nothing happening to Saraki that Buhari would not have agreed to, is against or has being bullied to be part of by anyone. I personally believe Buhari decided long ago that Saraki must pay for his treacherous and disloyal actions. Saraki showed disregard for Buhari's position as President and head of the APC. People forget that no real army General, anywhere in the world, would accept such, OBJ was the same also. Danjuma and IBB too. The problem is that some Nigerians are too blinded by emotions to see and discern the obvious.

Yes, Saraki didn't deliver North Central, he only delivered a larger part of Kwara.
APC could win without Kwara.

Keep celebrating the Highly Corrupt; your MVP indeed.

Sariki fought againt Tinibu from being vp.
Saraki chanced tinibus nominee.
Tinibu made it clear he didn't want sariki as SP cos he cldnt b trusted.
Tinibu said saraki shld apologize publicly and refused to see him.
Tinibu has more power Dan we know. Osibanjo is a figure head.
We all know its Tinibu

wilcox:

Unlike others, I call a spade a spade. Saraki's case is political but only an emotional fool will not appreciate that every game has rules as per how its players must behave and relate to other players of the game. Saraki took on and humiliated Buhari and the APC knowing there would be consequences. If those folks are now fighting Saraki back then what is this talk of witch-hunting about. You are in the game of politics. You undermine and disgrace your fellow politicians who are very powerful also. They have every right to fight you back with legitimate political means they control or have influence over. Simple as that. Mike Tyson is relaxing and you land him a heavy blow without provocation. Why complain when he hits you back harder and more lethally? Or has Saraki being arraigned on false and trumped-up charges ? why can't he simply try to clear his name if innocent?

Politicians worldwide, and even pragmatically intelligent folks, know Saraki called out his fellow politician and threw down the political gauntlet (challenged them to a political fight) when he did this. Saraki's political misbehaviour is now getting the political response it asked for. I have no problem with this because it is the way it is done throughout the world. Undermine the President of the USA or the Prime minister of the UK and the knives will be out for you. It is the way politics is worldwide. Make sure you have no skeletons in your cupboard before you go and take on powerful and determined heavy hitters.

ken4jj:


Why can't you guys analyze issues without bringing in tribalism? To think that people who are educated and exposed still fall for tribalism shows that there is no hope for this country. Can't you air your views without dragging people of the SE? Can you prove that the SE hates Tinubu? Or does it now mean that Tinubu does not have any opposition or hater in the whole of SW?
The problem with most of you is that you end up doing exactly the same thing you accuse others of doing instead of showing good examples. What you said would have made sense if you had not gone tribalistic. Most times, i don't understand what is difficult in making a point without tribalism.

Guy man sorry oooo, it's like you are new on Nairaland.

Tribalism is the garnishing on "our" political dessert.

...If not you wouldn't have been in his mention.

Oga sharap if u don't understand politics.U high?

TijaniAbu:


You cannot be a Kwaran. Do Kwarans bow? Saraki will see the end of Tinubu, either in front of Tinubu's eyes, or in front of Tinubu's grave. He who God has chosen, no man can oppose. Who is Tinubu beyond a chicago druglord with a forged certificate who duped lazy Lagosians into feasting off their effort? A frog-eyed thieving drug addicted midget of a one-time senator, two time provincial governor? Kinibig deal? Saraki or no Saraki, Tinubu is finished, he cannot feast off Kwarans taxes as he does in Lagos. If you want to bow to him please feel free. Dullard.

This is the most ridiculous comment ever... God chooses a criminal like 'saraki'. Kwara is one of the most backward state with considerable number of yoruba speaking people in Nigeria.

We are talking about bukola with billions in his account, all stolen money of common wealth. My problem with people like you is blind loyalty and using stupid religious line to support a criminal.

Saraki will go to jail and will be disgrace, this will send a strong signal to all criminals across the land

TijaniAbu:

Are you serious mate?
Apc couldn't have won election without saraki? Which weed are you smoking?

No pipe borne water, no electricity, no job.... Because people like saraki have stolen all the money that should be use to developed all these amenities.

The big headed ruled kwara for 8years without developing single water work (dam), no major road, no major poverty alleviation programs etc.

Wazhay:
Saraki should just concentrate on how to defend himself of all d corrupt practices he is facing @d CCT.Sheyb he wants 2b d senate president by all means 2d extent of using an opposition member as his deputy.I don't pity him because many civil servants and pensioners are dying or are still dying cos of his greed.Courts are sending Nigerians 2death cos of petty crimes and some people are hear defending Saraki who is standing trial for corruption,honestly kudos should go to his party for allowing d law 2take it's course.

This is another point people forget. Saraki, in his desperation to become SP, conspired to deny the APC the important position of DSP that the Party had no right to lose because the APC had the house majority to easily Produce SP and DSP. Which Party would forgive that action or fail to move against it? Only a weak and unprincipled one that does not care how the world sees it. Even the completely unprincipled PDP never failed to produce PDP senate President and deputy in the 16 years it led Nigeria. Saraki's current plight is one every serious, principled and loyal politician will be enjoying currently. Me and you may not have to practise free kicks but footballers do because it is their game. Same way politicians too, because of the nature of their game, must deal with the treachery of Saraki that disgraced the APC and gave the Party a big headache when it was a very new ruling Party trying to settle into power.

coolplanet:


Permit me to respond to your question. Guy,we are in Nigeria where things happen abnormally. There are some people who remain powerful in the country and feel they are untouchable .eg Obj,IBB,tinubu and the likes.
Saraki's persecution started when he fails to respect the parties decision and dine with PDP.
Tinubu has the intension of choosing lawan as senate president but was outsmart by Atiku and saraki.
A reliable source confirmed that Buhari told Tinubu to give others chance to also choose since he chose the vice president, that was when Tinubu hardly visit Aso rock.
Do u know despite the fact that EFCC claimed to be an independent entity ,the federal govt still controls it.so the judiciary could also be influenced by powerful people.dont forget that our judiciary is the worse in terms of corruption.

That was a lie. Akume was Tinubus candidate and was asked to step down for Lawan, Tinubu is not even close to Lawan but had to agree to there party decision, reason they did primary election for the SP but Oga Saraki played the smart one. However, they were both tried on different cases at the CCT, Tinubu was charged with operating foreign account which he proved he operated before occupying the governod office and didnt operate it at all during his time in office, while Saraki was charged with refusing to declare some properties acquired illegally. Different case bro.

barcaboi:

since u feel u know history and politics....let me tutor u
1. Tinubus candidate was Akume who was Minority leader under ACN in the last senate....he wanted gbajabi and akume to move up the ladder wch is what normal senate politics entail due to the amount of work and respect gathered by these pple.....APC leadership including PMB wanted Lawan and like a good leader he backed down especially wt Akume having EFCC issues
..
2. Osinbajo was the game changer. no other VP candidate cld have bn a breathe of fresh air. ....Ameachi wldav bn floored in his region, Even tinubu wldav generated criticism due to Muslim/muslim ticket.....okorocha is definitely not gonna sell at his region....Osinbajo was d joker
..
3..A man dat has won more cases against the FG while in the opposition and who had helped Aregbe and others get their mandates back ain't no puppet......
..
4...Tinubu has no post, no appointment, no immunity yet even PDP cldnt find nothing on him....pls stop d baseless accusations and hating. ..if tinubu has that power to influence even d judiciary against a sitting SP then respect to him....and wonder why the SP is running from pillar and post to squash d charges...

Very simple. Even a villager from Abia blames Tinubu for his woes when he has never govern any SE states nor have an appointment at the federal level. He was a governor just like them Orji Uźor Kalu and co, so why blaming him for everything. Na wao

Its ridiculous that anything we do is ethnic motivated.. Wtf! Saraki and tinubu are even from the west, the West that should seek for peace want to kill one and support the other for he's their demi-god.

Truth is both Saraki and Tinubu have stains in their cupboard, GEJ didn't have balls to prosecute anyone. pMB is doing just that but u have to be anti party or belong to another party to be prosecuted. In fact, all Nigerian politicians have skeleton in their cupboards, what matters is who's looking, if you're PDP, the EFCc and other govt agencies are digging for ur sins, if you're Amaechi, Tinubu or other APC members, even if private citizen or other parties dig for your sins and present it, nobody will look at it.


Saraki was anti party,the guy who seems to be the bond in d party is Tinubu, hence the blame game. Unfortunately, if Saraki loose the fight, one day someone will bring up Tinubu's case since he was freed in error. That will be the recoil.

is there any evidence to such an allegation any idi0t can wake up one day to say anything but until such allegation arise from a reasonable source with cogent evidence.



let me remind you of the fact that since Funso Williams murder the only set of people detained , questioned or arrested on that case are all PDP members and leaders.


his party was in power when he was murdered and still controlled power for years after his murder, why can't they prosecute Tinubu for his death if truly their is anything linking Tinubu to Williams death We all know how his families was treated by the same PDP days after his death.


It is not too late for anyone with cogent evidence and facts linking Tinubu to Funso Williams murder case to present it.

Jagabat is a murderer.
