Funny how omenka,passingshot and gbawe,the three musketeers leading the APC charge on NL have suddenly fizzled out like a candle that has run out of wax since the Nass crisis broke out. It is at a time like this you'll read retorts like 'listen,i have a life outside nairaland' or some other feeble defence they can muster..sigh

Jorussia:
.For me,there is only one way forward for APC,and that is to expel saraki and his men.Tambuwal did rebellion against his party, but he was wise enough not to interfere in party's choices for the remaining principal officers.Not many people here, remember that majority of PDP members rejected akande as the majority leader.It took several months of appealing from tambuwal to his fellow PDP members, before they finally accepted her as their leader. Majority leader is a diehard party man and ndume does not fit into this quality. Most people here,may not also remember, that ndume was the minority leader of the 6th house of reps,ndume decamped to the PDP. No reasonable party will allow those positions to be filled by the senate president.In the 7th senate,the PDP zoned the position of the deputy Senate leader to d North East.This same Ndume was interested in position, but by the time the leadership of PDP forwarded names to the Senate, They gave the position to Abdul ningi(bauchi),because they couldn't take the risk of making SB whose loyalty is questionable as deputy senate leader. I am not a fan of tinubu,because I have some reservations about his character. The APC will lose nothing if saraki and dogara are expelled from the party.The worst that will happen to APC will be that kwara governor will follow his boss.It is better,for APC to be in minority in the Senate, than be majority with disloyal members.

One says they would refrain from using curse words on this forum but foolish kids like you make it more and more difficult to keep that pledge. How the fvck has the rubbish you just typed addressed the issue raised by the op?? If you are so mentally handicapped to comment on the topic itself why couldn't you just read comments and bounce? Must you show the world how daft you are waving your foolishness like it were some priceless medal of valour??

Before the election someone, a PDP supporter, given their imaginary confidence in the outcome of the poll, created a thread and the topic mentioned the names of the most ardent supporters of GMB and asked what we would do when the General loses again. Most of us said regardless of the outcome, we don't see ourselves as active on the forum as we were anymore. Our activity was largely due to the fact we were in the campaign season and had to back our man. He contested and won. Now the rest if history.

Now, how difficult is that for you to handle??

Abeg, face your front and reserve your jaundiced personal opinion to claptraps like yourself.

Such annoying piece of sea urchin.

francizy:


Which other way other than to watch them display their madness while we plot our revolution?

Firefire:


My brother, I do not think plotting anything at this moment is productive.


Nigeria needs to move forward, this fighting and fracas could slow down our dreams, the wicked and selfish cabal would be rejoicing already.


I am a full supporter of GEJ but I think Nigeria interest comes first over any party ambition.

APC is the present opposition party in the NASS and there is no end in sight to this development.

This is a lesson for a political system of winner takes all.

Nigeria will be better with [b]parliamentary system of government.

Firefire:


I tend to agree with you on the parliamentary system to be re-introduced back in Nigeria.

Nigeria practiced parliamentary system of government in the First Republic between 1960 and 1966.

While in a parliamentary system, the executive and the legislature are fused, with an executive Prime Minister chosen from within the legislature usually the head of the ruling political party or the heads the ruling coalition.

However, for the currently running Presidential system of government and the current challenges, what do you feel could be the approach to get-out of this situation ?

Wildrage:


Hahahahahaha with parliamentary system, Nigeria would have a new prime Minister every other week

Even Japan had 5 Prime ministers in 6 years.

That's not a problem, competence will prevail in the long run.

Wildrage:


Japan has strong institutions that can sustain the incessant transitions and they do not contend with the fault-lines of tribal and religious sentiments that has kept us in doldrums since amalgamation

IsraeliAIRFORCE:


Please I beg to differ based on prevailing developments after APC won the 2015 general election.

Without nPDP joining APC, APC would still be minority and still lost the presidency.

See what a shame and ridicule the leadership of APC has put Rotimi Amaechi through that he is now being referred to Judas of Ubima.

After winning 2015 general elections, ACN and CPC decided to marginalised nPDP in sharing the elective posts and political offices while demonizing the nPDP as corrupt elements of previous administration.

Upon sensing this ugly development, the nPDP has regrouped with the help of PDP to teach former ACN, ANPP and CPC the bitter lessons of their lives.

This present development has degenerated to the extent that nPDP will stop at nothing in ridiculing Oyegun,Tinubu and Buhari for neglecting the contributions of new PDP to their victory in last elections.

OAM4J:


Does that nPDP include Kwankaso and Amaechi who are not in support of Saraki?

This is just Saraki and Atiku rebellion. APC can do without them for now.

OAM4J:

That is the reality I want APC to formally accept. There is no point claiming a majority that is out of your control.
Let Saraki and his supporters form majority with PDP and allow those who are loyal and disciplined member of the party be in the minority while APC and Buhari focus on delivering their campaign promises.

IsraeliAIRFORCE:


Since the establishment of State of Israel, only one government was able to complete its tenure.

Remember, Israel became a country in 1948 and has fought many wars.

Today, she's a developed country notwithstanding her Arab, Settlers, Jewish and Bedoiun populations.

Wildrage:


The population of Arabs settlers and Bedoiun in Israel are quite negligible and totally dissimilar to the tribal and religious mix in Nigeria. Israel , to a large extent is a homogeneous society and the issues that drives their politics are not as divisive as we have in Nigeria. There is nothing like power shift/rotation due to fear of political/economic domination by any region. There has never been any military incursion so the democratic culture has been nurtured since they became a nation state

IsraeliAIRFORCE:


In parliamentary system of government as it relates to tribes in Nigeria, what matters are Hausas, Igbos and Yorubas, every other tribe can build alliance and fall behind them thereby narrowing our diverse differences to only three groups hence parliamentary system of government is advisable.

Volksfuhrer:
Something tells me Saraki just made the biggest mistake of his political career. The man is politically finished!

Jesusloveyou:
The way forward, anything bulld on illegality wil not stand, saraki should step down, every member should have a right to vote,for their senate president, or if saraki should be allow, he should as well accept d party nominees, for peace to reign,
