How?

sosanova:
[size=13pt]You tambuwal me...I Saraki you
Buhari is a real Dullard for calling a meeting at such a critical time, he doesn't understand Nigeria politics [/size]

NaijaTalkTown:
It is the right of the president of the federal republic of Nigeria to proclaim the new assembly before they can select a new leader. The election was however carried out in the absent of the president. This election is illegal and not recognized by the Nigerian constitution. The election should be nullified and the clerk should be persecuted. And Saraki should be expelled from APC. EFCC get ready to probe someone.

soe:

And i can see a supreme court judgment underway....suspending the Senate until further notice.

The illegality in the action of the so called clerk of the house will not stand. Having inaugurated 57senators only out of 109, that is not even up to a quorum (quorum is 1/3rd for normal plenary...but for extraordinary plenary such as this and constitution amendment among others specified by law, it is 2/3rd).

And this was also without the requisite formal declaration by Mr President, signalling the launching of the new assembly.
That said, APC needs to checkmate the activities of certain people. Saraki has only confirmed that he is far from "change" as he is neck deep in romance with the PdP gang. Shame to kwankwaso also, for being no different...now I know never to trust the so called N-PDP boys who ought to have been left to rot in political oblivion like Lamido and Muazu.

First, he called the VP a mere commissioner.
Secondly, he damned the meeting with mr president.
Thirdly, he paired with pdp imps.

My advicr to Buhari, this guy still has 4 heavy corruption baggages....it is either you immediately recruit Nuhu Ribadu into the EFCC, or you consult OBJ on how to deal ruthlessly with Senate Presidents.

Wabara knows what I'm talking about

Ezenwammadu:
Nothing illegal took place today.For the senate to convene it requires 1/3 quourm which is 36
http://www.waado.org/nigerdelta/documents/ConstitutionalMatters/1999Constitution/ChapterFive.html.

The proclamation was read at the begining

The quorum was formed with 57 senators and Saraki was elected with 57 votes which is simple majority.

His deputy was elected with 54 votes aganist ndume 20

Sarki simply out smarted APC leadership with his loyal members

DevilhimseIf:



bro cool down at least una get presidency

aguiyi:
the Daura President will be thought how far Nigeria has moved since 1985.

David mark would have emerged the senate president if all the APC senators had gone for that meeting.

1/3 of the house is 36 and we have more than that .

Caseless:
I thank God for giving us presidency.

You know , the leadership of apc have created an enemy in saraki for BUHARI. You know what gej faced in the hands of Tambuwal.

ybalogs:

After how many years in power?

jomoh:


Is that one in the biafran constitution?

Read Nigerian constitution well. This is an extraordinary plenary 2/3 section not and ordinary one where 1/3 is needed. Does the clerk have the constitutional powers to make the proclamation. When we have a sitting president.

PStacks:




Look! "NEVER" come up here and call the President a Dullard again in your life, otherwise I'l track you and maim you.

Your Father is the Dullard here not to have flushed you in the drains.

Ezenwammadu:
The legal proclamation was read at the begining of the inaugration

DevilhimseIf:


That's were your party leaders miscalculated.

Buhari no even send them

OrlandoOwoh:

What was read was the notice that the President was supposed to be in the NASS.

ferhyntorlah:


That's my concern. I believe more drama will play out.
Just watch out!

Stoical:


Let's take a closer look at these events...
Qtn 1: Who's choice was Law an?
Qtn 2: Does Buhari feel very comfortable with those backing Lawan?
Qtn 3: Between the NE and NC, who has more political weight and backers? Note: Atiku factor has not yet been discussed...
Lastly: How sure are we that "the meeting called by PMB at the time the National Assembly was supposed to be inaugurated was not planned? And how do we explain the fact that, PMB had earlier sent a letter, authorising the Inauguration of the 8th Assembly by the Clerk of the house?

Really, to clear the air... The house does elects its leader by simple majority (108 - 51 = 57)... So, they acted under the law.
To unseat the SP, they need 2/3 majority...

Wow! Buhari said, "I'll work with anybody, setting a precedence that he ain't supporting anyone, yet a "meeting" was called at the exact time where the house was to be inaugurated...(please, decipher this, my good friends)

peleson:

And where did they leave the senate chambers to? Mind u buhari gve his approval to the senate Clark before leaving for Germany. The apc senators are still mostly baby senators lol. What goes around comes around. I v said it time without number, buhari lacks dexterity to coordinate leadership! He always happens to be ther but always doesn't know what to do! He lacks mental credibility! And that can be attributed to his lack of smooth education

Why do u want to persecute the clerk?
You will be prosecuted ooo if u persecute the clerk for carrying out his clerical duties.
