Nigerians Won’t Respect Bills From Saraki’s Senate. He should step down -Gbagi by midolian(m): 6:54pm On Sep 23, 2015
A former Minister of State for Education, Chief Kenneth Gbagi, has called on the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki, to step down.

He said the trial of the Senate president by the Code of Conduct Tribunal has put a question mark on his integrity to lead the upper legislate chamber.

Gbagi said with what is going on, there was no way Nigerians and the international community would respect motions and bills that would emanate from the Senate under the leadership of Saraki.

The former minister spoke with some journalists in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said the trial of Saraki by the CCT was enough reason for the former governor of Kwara State to step down and allow another person mount the saddle of leadership of the Senate.

He said, “We have a problem in Nigeria where we don’t have people of honor, dignity and integrity as leaders.

“The mere fact that the Senate President is undergoing criminal trial is an indication that he has no business being a Senate president living with tax payers’ money.

“First, Nigerians will not have faith in anything that comes out of his Senate that is chaired or presented by that kind of person.

“Again, the entire international community will not believe in the passage of any Bill or motion under his leadership.

“So if you ask me, that is the end of him. He is gone. And like several other government where you think you get in and it will be business as usual, it is not true.”

He regretted that Saraki would not learn from advanced counties where someone like him, who is undergoing such trial, would have resigned from office.

He said this was one of the reasons why countries like the United State of America is still being respected.

"An accused person is deemed innocent until he is proved guilty".. Section 36 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

Bill Clinton didn't step down because of the Monica Lewinsky Scandal

Richard Nixon did not leave office until he was fully proved to be enmeshed in the Watergate fiasco undecided

So Chief Gbagi should just shut the fvck up until Saraki's trial is concluded angry


SARAKI FOR SENATE PRESIDENT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE angry

Firstly, Nigerians should know that this fight is against corruption and not saraki or his office of senate president.
Call it witch-hunting, conspiracy, gang up or whatever name, the bottom line is the issue of corruption through false declaration of assets.

If truly Nigerians want us to destroy this heldraheaded monster called corruption, certain presumed mighty people must have to fall.
As it is and known by mosNnigerians, most of our political leaders are nothing but petty thieves and thus there shouldn't be any honour for them.
This corruption war and the antendant success thereof is dependent on Nigerians largely. We either continue with the status quo ante or break those eggs to make the needed omelette.

Gbagi just want to be heard, the principle of law that says a man is innocent until proven guilty doesn't seem to make sense to him.
There is a fundamental difference between Democracy and Dictatorship, while democracy relies on the rule of law, dictatorship relies on the rule of brute force. Gbagi should pick his choice. Democracy is slow but arrive safely.

True! But since Saraki emerged(through treacherous means) as the senate president, there has been division in the party, no peace in the senate and its affecting the CHANGE Nigerians have long been yearning for. He should just step down for the 'good' of the country.

Bros i am very very on topic!! The topic says Saraki should resign because he is facing criminal charges likewise I am also saying Buhari should equally resign until he locates his "missing" WAEC certificate.
