President of the Senate, Senator Bukola Saraki has described his Deputy, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, as a perfect example for Nigerian politicians, saying that he has no regret working with him.

Senator Saraki spoke as Senator Ekweremadu described his re-emergence as Senator and Deputy President of the Senate as an act of God.

The two spoke at a civic reception at the country home of Senator Ekweremadu, in Mpu, Enugu State, shortly after a special thanksgiving service, where Ekweremadu rededicated himself to service to Nigeria and mankind.

Senator Saraki in his address, described Senator Ekweremadu as a man, who every Nigerian politician should look forward to working with.

He said: “For we politicians, it is always better to get close to know somebody because in our meetings in the 7th Senate, myself and him were far apart, but in this current Senate, I am the first person to tell a few people that Senator Ekweremadu is a perfect gentleman. You are a perfect gentleman and I repeat that many times and you are a good example for we politicians.

“He is the type of Nigerians that we will want to continue to serve because he only sees things for the good of Nigeria. I am grateful to be working with you and I will continue to assure you that we will continue to work closely for the interest of this great country.”

Earlier at the special thanksgiving service by his family, Ekweremadu recalled his journey back to the Senate, saying, “about two years ago, nobody would have believed that we will be here talking about Ike Ekweremadu being a Senator again, let alone being the Deputy President of the Senate. But, by the grace of God, I am today not only the Senator representing Enugu West, but also the Deputy President of the Senate.

“We went through very tumultuous primaries that almost divided our state along the line, but we thank God that today Enugu is united and peaceful.

“After the elections, PDP lost control of the National Assembly and many people thought we were finished, but we went into political engineering and I want to thank my colleagues for that long night. We decided that when we got to the chamber in the morning, we were going to perform wonders and when the time came for the inauguration of the Senate, I was re-elected Deputy President of the Senate. It was the will of God.”

Mtchewwwwwwww... am not surprised!

Yes... he will definitely be a gentleman once you've been invited to his hometown to give a speech about him. Who would have wanted to disgrace a fellow politician, which there is a high probability of working together in future.

Trust me, if he was to give a speech at Nnamdi Kanu's home town, he wouldn't have said any better.

in between* what happened to the dasuki gate scandal
For like 5days or so, no one is talking about it again or am the one who is not following closely?

Its aiit

I hate this Nigerian politicians.They can't ever do more than this..praising themselves without having @ heart progress of the country instead,looting the country treasury.its a pity!!

Good

2019.
5% may shrink to 0% this time.
Probably won't make a difference in 2019. Buhari has fanatical support in the north.
Going against him is futile for now.

?

Only time will tell how long this hypocrite will continue to delude himself

ASK MR. EKWEREMADU, WHAT HAPPENED TO ENUGU-ONITSHA EXPRESS WAY CONTRACT. THIS WILL ONE DAY BOUNCE OUT TO BITE HIM IN THE ASS.

Birds of the same feather.....

They eat all that is for their people, feeding fat at their expense.

Jegudujera.....!!!!

Saraki- The Judas of APC

Make una stop to dey ban me naa.. all these ode wey dey spit trash no suppose dey go scot free.. Aniwaiz aw far

Let him continue to deceive himself

Who is saraki to tell who is a good Nigerian? Morally deficient individual with various fraudulent behaviors....I can only sense cheap publicity and possibly trying to get igbo support in his future presidential bids.

Birds of same feather

If a fraudster like Saraki describes somebody as a gentle man he can work with, you know the two are birds of a feather. Thank you Mr Saraki, looter of Societe General bank and Kwara state treasury, for letting the world know that you and Ekweremadu belong in the same gang.
