ABUJA- CRISIS rocking the All Progressives
Congress, APC , over the selection of principal
officers for the Senate, Tuesday deepened as
the meeting of the caucus members of the
party in the upper chamber ended in deadlock.
At the meeting of the APC Senators to address
the problem, some senators engaged in
physical combat bringing the meeting to an
abrupt.
Senator Bokola Saraki and Ahmad Lawan
According to a source, the meeting which was
the first time the two camps (Saraki and
Lawan ) would agreed to a meeting after
Saraki edge out Ahmad Lawan in the race for
the Senate presidency was held behind closed
door in Meeting room 3:01 and had about 40
APC Senators in attendance.
At the meeting, Senator Danjuma Goje, Gombe
Central led the group loyal to Saraki on one
side, while Senator Barnabas Gemade, Benue
North East led the group loyal to Lawan.
Declaring open the meeting, Saraki said, ” I
appeal to you all to let us do those things that
will unite us than to those that will divide us.
For me, I am ready and desirous, as colleagues
to work with all of you in order to provide
that focused leadership in the Senate and
National Assembly as an institution.
A source told Vanguard that the position of
Saraki’s group was that candidates must
emerge through an electoral process, the four
favoured zonal caucuses should meet, conduct
elections at zonal levels, then communicate
winners of such elections to the Senate
President and that once the zonal caucuses
conclude their elections by the end of Tuesday,
the Senate President would announce those to
fill the posts at Wednesday plenary.
The Unity Forum which supported Lawan were
opposed to it as they insisted that the names
nominated by the APC leadership to take the
positions be adhered to.
There was a melodrama when Senator Kabir
Marafa, Zamfara Central, pushed and attacked
Senator Tayo Alasoadura, Ondo Central for
daring to challenge the decision of the party.
Alasoadura was saved by the timely
intervention of Senator Rafiu Ibrahim (Kwara)
who held Marafa firmly and prevented him
from hitting at his target. Other Senators also
joined in saving the ugly situation even as
rains of abusive words intensified from all
angles in different languages.

DAURA DULLARDìNHO call your children to order

Why am I not surprised?
APC; Association of Pained Criminals

APC spokesman would soon tell us that the shoving and pushing is a good process to strengthen Nigeria's democracy and that anything good cannot be gotten without a good fight. As in old wine taste sweeter as it grows old.

The gathering of crooks and thieves,

Are they fighting to protect the interest of the masses ? NO!

Are they fighting to cut their outrageous allowances? NO!

Are they fighting on how to move the country forward ? NO!

What then are they fighting for? They are fighting each other to protect their personal interest.

This is what you get when strange bedfellows try to unite under one umbrella - Their case is akin to bunch of thieves that fights to the death over the sharing formula of their loot.

Nigeria, we hail thee!

It not always easy sharing d spoil after capturing the land.. Someone shld remind them that we are still waiting for d chanji!!!
