yea..But picking a running mate in the opposition is a big blow. And we all know this is one of the reasons he has the backing of almost all the PDP senator elect. PDP can't jst support Saraki like that, he must have promised the party(PDP) some other things probably to the detriment of his party. Its a complete sell out as far as I am concerned. Do you know if the PDP had wanted, they would have allowed David mark emerge as the president for the 3rd time? Have u wondered why they didn't? They had the chance to buh they chose to let Saraki run unopposed. Only God knows the juicy things Saraki promised them... I might be wrong though

If Saraki's behaviour isnt anti-party. Then i dont really know what is. And i wont be surprised if he decamps,that man's so ambitious he'll sell his mother for his ambitions. I hope Tinubu ends that guy's political career,leave him in APC and let him rot!

The Daura President is not all that dull afterall. He's tactically pulling himself from Tiefnubu's grasps

doctokwus:

There is a lot wrong with how Saraki emerged,but most nauseatingly how we now have an absurd situation where we have a PDP deputy senate president.
In all sincerity and inspite being a diehard fan and believer in PMB, I lay this absurdity squarely on his shoulders and he should start finding ways to correct his error of yesterday.
The point is that with the baggage Saraki comes with and that of PDP to which ekweremadu represents, their elections has dealth a moral and perception blow to PMB anti corruption,change and not "business as usual" stance even before it gets started.
We should all care and be highly disturbed with what happened yesterday in the senate.

cry me a river, it is called Seperation of Power

Isoni:
The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives
Congress has urged the national leadership of the
party to punish the Senate President, Bukola Saraki,
and the Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Yakubu Dogara, for anti-party activities.

Lagos APC, in a statement by its publicity secretary,
Mr. Joe Igbokwe, said it was saddening that Saraki
could ‘jump into bed’ with the Peoples Democratic
Party in his desperation for power.

Igbokwe described the re-election of Senator Ike
Ekweremadu as the Deputy Senate President as an
embarrassment to the APC.

The statement read, “The purported election of
Senator Saraki and Dogara as the Senate President
and Speaker respectively, is a clear transgression of
both the tenets of democracy and party politics. At
this early stage, the APC must come down strongly to mete out sanctions and punishments against
treacherous members that perpetrated this ugly
charade at this early stage of the party’s life and
history.

“As a party and given the circumstances of our
present politics, the APC stands no risk of being
eroded by this treachery. Rather, we see the clear
road to enforce discipline in the treacherous conduct of some members of the National Assembly.

“We see the need for the party to wield the big stick
now to send a message home that treachery will not
profit those who might want to cash in on similar
circumstances to spite the party and cash personal
benefits in the long run. It is certain that these
betrayers are not members of the APC and we feel
the party must weigh in now and discipline these
betrayers.”

he didn't pick a running mate. Election for deputy senate president held separately. Btw ekwerenmadu and that boko haram senator from borno and ekwerenmadu won.

Punish them? Very laughable. You 'Tambuwal' PDP in the seventh assembly and the 'Saraki'ed you in the eighth. Amnesia is a strong thing in our comity. What is good for the geese nko......

Life is about change, sometimes it's painful,
sometimes it's beautiful, but most of the time it's
both.
Tinubu and APC should be ashamed of themselves. Saraki and Dogara are party members Who have rights to vote and be voted for. Nigerian politics has gone beyond politics of god fatherism.

The only punishment na to sack them from APC, den, they will de-camp to PDP still maintaining their status, who go loose? Na APC.



They should just shut d hell up and accept the outcome, that is how politics is played. U capitalized on GEJ's weakness and won him, u were all happy, now one of u has done d same thing to u all, u re crying fowl.




Make una find way reconcile with him, otherwise, if una give am tough punishment, he will simply abandom u people and head to PDP, then una go see real shame and real politics between PDP and PMB.(SP PDP saraki, DSP ekweremadu PDP) just imagine d outcome.

You do know that the fact that you had to reply a non insulting post with an insulting one makes you the ape yea? Get off my mentions biko

It is a game, let seen who win, how can u punish a senate president, children talk

Raiders:
Saraki should be kicked out of APC because he has lost the trust and credibility. Its better he go back to PDP because he is a saboteur and should not be allow to remain in APC.

ure going no wer wit dis ur brain

beware of Ilorin people they are very slippery ,shifty, cunning, disloyal crooked, and above all infinitely TREACHREOUS as epitomised by those rogues morally bankrupt and depraved sarakis they are NOT true full blooded Yoruba odale buruku this z exactly the reason why offa people always refer to them as Ilorin m'esu jamba translated roughly as Ilorin man like devil as treachery I never like d very sight of that traitor around buhari during d day s leading up to general election I saw him as a PDP mole and Judas inside APC when pastor tunde bakare compared that d people around buhari wit ALI BABA AND FORTY THIEVES HE forgot to traitor s! That snitch is gon to PDP for sure dis what tinubu saw and try to pre empt if buhari knew something abt dis then it z just too bad this is 2015 not 84 he 'll find in out in a hard way just how dirty and desperate politic and politician s have gotten since shagari

CHESSBOARD:
YES they are called LAGOS APC... thats what they are, LOCAL CHAMPIONS, TINUBU LAGOS LOCAL CHAMPION... this is Nigeria not Lagos, maybe Oba should tell SARAKi that he will die in River Niger not lagoon

Oba akinolu aka oba Lil Wayne go fit die on this matter ooo

Is the leadership thing now a do or die affair? If apc heads the house and his deputy is from another party, are they not all Nigerians supposed to work for Nigeria? Politics these days is something else

APC don't know how to play politics at all so obvious all wat dey know is occupy occupy n formulate propanganda to deceive dere mumu supporters. stupid party

jorlons:
I hope these people know what they are saying. Sanctioning them will only make their alliance with PDP stronger and once that happens, defection maybe likely.

In as much as I want their treacherous act of unholy alliance treated, the party needs to tread softly.

Calm down.. Cant u see? The PDP CANNOT be stronger unless elections are to be rigged. Go to the streets and hear people. Its bye bye to the PDP. My grouse with Saraki's emergence is the fact that he carries so much stain that needs to be cleared. How can Buhari fight corruption with such a man as Senate president?

why exactly would they want them punished?
what is their offence?
politics in Nigeria is indeed a dirty game.

Isn't it too late to cry over split milk. C'mon pick up the napkin and set about preparing another cup of milk! Good thinking is at the foundation of a good product. APC should set about (and very quickly too) learning how to manage political success. They should cultivate folks like Atiku and Donald Duke for good counterbalance come 2019.

For the common man, survive in d most possible way givin ur life d best meaning u can afford in d mist of self inflicted hardship

God is watching

Really?.......

Saraki should be expelled from the party. I always know his heart has neva been with APC, the popular saying about anything ilorin is "ilorin m'esu jamba' treachery is what they know best, odale.

midolian:
Even though I am not a Saraki fan, I don't really have a problem with his emergence as the senate president but the means through which he emerged..And his deputy(PDP). He has only sold out the party to the opposition and I wonder how easy it ll be for the party to implement some its plans for the country without the approval of the opposition that failed Nigeria for 16yrs. I just hope we are not back to square one

Dogara on the other hand, won fairly and doesn't deserve to be punished..its obvious that the mock election's flawed. How could he have gotten just 3votes, when somebody in the party stepped down for him and put his weight behind him? He wasnt satisfied with the mock election and went to the battlefield with the man that got over 100votes in the mock elections ..He was nominated the same way Gbajabiamila was. And an election took place, which he won and was declared. Everything doesn't have to go the "Lagos way" but the "Nigeria way". #myOpinion

You need to have a problem with his emergence as Senate President. The process was a ridiculous one which also ensure that Ekwerremadu, a PDP member, retained his seat and David Mark a majority leader. If you truly voted for CHANGE and want corruption out of Nigeria, you will clearly see that both persons at the leadership helm in the legislature are sympathetic to corruption.

Tinubu will have the last laugh

with dat him dirty teeth

The heading should be SW APC, they where the one who was rebeled against. The SW progresive agenda just hit a major brickwall.
