Please read carefully before commenting. I am particularly indifferent in all this. This was posted as a broadcast message on my BBM and as a patriotic citizen, I thought to share

Go to bed, sleep &dream another one,dis one miss road. Saraki will be relieved of his ill gotten position, PMB will not only complete his term (s),any sympathiser of Saraki's will have his/her F up "megaly" treated as well... You are as indifferent about this as Dieziani , Jonathan were about NNPC funds... P.S.A to NL E-wailers Una better advise una senior wailers in the senate to fall back, PDP already have a battered corrupt image to tend back to life, supporting Saraki will only do them more harm than good!!! 57 Likes 3 Shares |

Buhari looks like that person that will never learn from history. He may end up being the only Nigerian president that is dismissed twice. Events of 1984 may democratically repeat itself in this dispensation. 37 Likes 1 Share |

It's a pity we have many naive-minded commentators lately on the cyberspace....this writer had forgotten that in the absence of an Attorney-General, the most Senior Officer in the CCB can act in the capacity of the AG. The issue at stake here demands urgency towards a staggering case (billions of dollars accrued to a single noble thief), even Tinubu appeared in the dock in this same CCT when he was served his notice. So who the hell is this spoilt brat forming one god against the Law of the Land? 43 Likes 3 Shares |

We surely need our learned colleague to advise us on the said matter. One thing I know for sure is "it's politically motivated" that's not to say Saraki is a saint either 9 Likes 1 Share |

@Mycoli: Actually, the issues raised by the poster is baseless. 1. Prosecution can only be authorised from the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation/Justice Ministry. Keyword here is office. 2. The Office/Ministry is not the same as occupant/Minister. Just as the Presidency does not mean the occupant. 1(above) actually mean the institution. Any authorised person (Solicitor-General or Director of Public Prosecution) have the power to okay criminal proceeding in the absence of AGF. 3. The law does not recognise vacuum. Hence, the Ministry of Justice were able to halt Sylva's case even when there was no Minister of Justice. 4. The CCB has acted lawfully 5. It is NOT an impeachable offence. Beside to impeach a President you need 1/3 members of Senate and Reps to send impeachment notice, you need the CJN to set up 7-man committee to investigate the 'offences' and you need ANOTHER 2/3 of Senate and Reps to pass a Yes (assuming the panel indict the President). It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE People should refrain from being emotional over this issuê 44 Likes 4 Shares |

Clearly, after reading this OP, Modath is afraid. Ma'am goan sleep biko. I hope someone informs Mr Buhari of this. I also hope for his sake that the subsection, section, session et al I'm seeing up there is fake and a blatant lie. Else, he would be biting his fingers now on why he took this long to appoint an Attorney General. Swift does not always mean Apt. 5 Likes |

MizMyColi: You are on a hiding to none by all accounts. Tell Saraki that he has simply misread the tea leaves here. Furthermore, section 25(3) provides that the question whether any authority has been given in pursuance of this section requiring the Attorney General to donate his prosecutorial powers under the Act, “shall not be inquired into by any person”. Cogent arguments being tendered, earlier today It is about time Saraki honoured his overdue appointment with fate - ignominy Tribunal issues warrant to arrest Nigeria's Senate President Bukola Saraki | TVC News 7 Likes |
