Corrinthians:
They know Oshiobaba isn't Oyegun. No one takes a chance with such shrewd veteran at the head.

I hope they get some security allowance in the end for securing the premises of NASS.

Yeeeeeeeepaaaaa .
U no go kill peple with laff dis morning o

Saraki must GO!.
He should do the needful by resigning.

Yomboy4ever:



Who is mad already among the two people, one sleeping at home without any form of fear, while the other do vigilante together with gate man and law making.. Abeg who dey run mad in honest truth?

Keep consoling your poor reasoning . The mad man you thought sleeping can hardly close his eyes at the moment. Keep the vigil and give the devils no chance.

blackpanda:


We are saying the same thing. If u are sure APC doesn't have the numbers then let saraki reconvene and let's test it. What u are unaware of is that the Senate rules says 2/3 majority of members present. Not 2/3 majority of the entire house. There will never be a time wen all members are present as many of them are on different assignments nationwide. So get schooled and stop commenting in ignorance.

You APC apologist always try to change the narrative or add something to justify the illegality you want to do. Very sickening.

The constitution said 2/3 majority of the members, there was nothing like PRESENT there.

Some of you said that it means 2/3 of a quorum can impeach the sp which is also wrong because the constitution never mentioned quorum also.

It said 2/3 majority of the members, if we go by this it then means even 2/3 of just 10members can even impeach the sp which we all know cannot hold water morally and in the court of law.

APC should go and look for 73 senators to impeach saraki if they can.

SARAKI IS GONE!
Analyzing his body language for the past few days, We see a man who is giving life a final push for survival.
Akpabio's decamping is one of the strongest blows that have destroyed the foundation he has been standing on.
Akpabio is very rich, and he is a political principality that no A list politician has summoned the courage to criticize or mock his defection.
Every senator is negotiating for 2019, there is a limit they can follow Saraki. They won't follow Saraki at the expense of their 2019 interests.
He doesn't trust the Senators in his camp again, he is now running from Minna to Abeokuta, this move is a move of desperation and drowning man. If he is in charge, he won't make such moves within days.
Dogara is finding it difficult to decamp, because it is near impossibility for him to fly PDP in Bauchi and win his constituency, with the current sentiments on ground.
You would be surprised that many PDP Senators are negotiating with APC in secrets.
Saraki doesn't have the support of the power that be, his camp has been compromised by their 2019 selfish interests.
The INEC budget is putting him under pressure to reconvene, if not his foes are fast convincing Nigerians that he is the one on their way of progress.
With what happened to DG DSS, nobody in government would want to associate with him in secret again, he has lost a big grip.
He has lost every negotiating tool for soft landing. With or without him, the power that be can hijack the clerk to reconvene using INEC budget passage as excuse, to flush him out.
We see the end of Saraki, not just at the Senate, but also in Kwara.
He is really in a tight corner!

For the other ones, they are nothing but BUNCH of losers.
Sai Baba.
Sai Buhari.
GOD BLESS OUR PRESIDENT.



(Someone says Oshiomole has turned some people's parents into GATE MEN!
Hahahaha , we can't stop laughing o!

Corrinthians why nah?! )

Sai saraki , the acting NO 2 citizen

Nigeria should be sold to Jeff Bezos, so I can collect my share of the money.

*Another interesting dimension to the leadership question in the Senate.*

The constitution says the Senate has the power to promulgate rules for their administration and organisation, which they have since promulgated, and now operate as the Senate rules which consequently, when passed, form part of the constitution by inference...

Those Senate rules state that, to become a Senate President, you have to belong to the party in the majority in the Senate, and they have applied this rule since 1999...

Therefore, all the lawyers, with due respect, who have been talking about impeachment, have been off tangent, as the issue isn't about impeachment, which is generally about the Senate President's conduct after his election, whilst the current issue ought to be about eligibility, which is vested in the majority party, and should be self regulatory amongst honourable men, which I am afraid Nigerian politicians seem not to be...

Remember Saraki was elected Senate President with perhaps only 6/7 APC senators present, while PDP caucus were fully seated, and yet in spite of their majority on the day, the PDP didn't and couldn't have selected one of themselves to stand against Saraki, which would have been rather easy but which wouldn't have been supported by the Senate standing rules...

Recall also that parliamentary jurisdictions use this simple rule to determine heads of their governments, and it's simply a measure of knowing by simply counting which party has more seats internally, and the convention is obeyed without resort to any unnecessary impeachment or court process...

Remember that Saraki took this plunge of defecting to the opposition, thinking he had 30 senators decamping with him, but the numbers had been drastically reduced by the damage control of the Oshiomole leadership of the APC. So now that it appears that he didn't get the numbers required this time, he is no longer being smart but disingenuous and devious, because If indeed Saraki's party is in the minority, he is not eligible for the position...

This has nothing to do with impeachment, and all the lawyers who have opined on this seem all to miss the point!!!

If, indeed, the PDP is the minority party, then Saraki cannot by any law or reason continue to hold office as Senate President, as he would not be eligible for the position thereby ...

they can't defend the electorate who's money they're enjoying, but they can defend Saraki by shifting their bedroom s to the national assembly. the earlier those supporting these criminals comes out of their cage and imprisonment of their sense of reasoning the better.

dear learned brother ,,where did the constitution stipulate 109 members for impeachment ,becos by facts NASS rarely convene with such numbers ,,their is no politics without reference to history or quotes from the constitution.
if 109 was not required to enthrone saraki why should 109 be a must to impeach him. lets learn

Sec. 50 (c) states that Senate President or Speaker can be removed by the “Votes of not less than two-thirds of that House”.

Meanwhile, Sec. 54 stipulates that the SENATE or HOUSE shall be ONE-THIRD of all the members. This is in respect of the constitutionally recognised quorum for the sitting of either the Senate or the House.

sec. 56 (1) states that “Except as otherwise provided by this constitution, any question proposed for decision in the Senate or House shall be determined by the required majority of the members present and voting; and the persons presiding shall cast a vote whenever necessary to avoid an equality of votes but shall not vote in any other case

in conclusion 1/3 of 109 is what is needed to form a legalize quorum in the senate for impeachment purposes only ... does apc have 1/3 of 109= YES ,,is saraki/PDP aware=YES.
saraki/ pdp next move is confrontation with apc senators, victims card

You are a retarded dingbat and a dimwit. Senate procedures are not contained in the constitution that is why APC want to develop their own procedures to impeach the sp and expect PDP to sit and watch them.

You are the one who is an ignorant gnat.

But wait ooo if Saraki isn't afraid why not declare National Assembly opened and tackle with APC about removal.

The guy dey jittery

Where did I mention that the 109 members must be present?

2/3 majority is what am talking about. 2/3 majority of what?

The person I replied tried to be clever by adding PRESENT to what he quoted an I debunked it that that ain't true and you are now trying to say it can be 2/3 of 1/3 of 109members.

Therein lies the problem, because of this illegality that the APC wants to perpetrate is why PDP is keeping vigil at the NASS.

Corruption murdered sleep and you shall sleep no more

Just for those who understand what is happening and why the house will not resume till september as officially announced by the senate president on the day he made them go on recess.

https://www.boardeffect.com/blog/what-constitutes-a-quorum/

The reason why Saraki is afraid of being impeached is because of Karma...He came in through fraudulent means now he is afraid of being thrown out fraudulently...No rest for the wicked...lol



"Bukola Saraki, a former governor of Kwara State, has been elected the president of the eighth Senate.

Mr. Saraki of the All Progressives Congress, APC, defeated his party’s preferred candidate, Ahmed Lawan, to emerge the Senate president.

He was nominated by Sani Yerima and seconded by Dino Melaye.

He was elected unanimously by 57 senators present at the session.

The remaining 51 senators were at the International Conference Centre waiting for a truce meeting reportedly called by the leadership of the APC and President Muhammadu Buhari.

One senator, from Borno state, passed on shortly after he was elected.

Mr. Saraki has been sworn into office.

The election for the office of Senate Deputy President is still ongoing. Immediate past deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, is contesting against Ali Ndume from Borno State.

He is expected to win the race following a power sharing deal that had the minority but influential PDP back the new senate president, Bukola Saraki.''

what is illegality in having quorum recognise by the constitution, i quoted the constitution for you or did you think that section 50 was my ideal or from apc constitution . just to avoid arguement was why i quoted the constitution ...yet you are still beating round the bush

MartinCorridon:
APC should forget about impeaching Saraki.

Buhari is paying heavily for his low IQ and clannish nepotism.

Right under your nose, your own SSS director was bought.

Tinubu warned him about Saraki from Day 1. Right under him, Saraki has been actively campaigning since 2015

I think he heeded the advise of his cabals which his wife was referring to.
but now,he and his party are paying heavily.

And who will the executive recognize as senate president is what is important OK.

The day the federal government annouce that he has been impeach will be the end.

APC is just trying to be more Democratic than PDP.
We know how OBJ was changing them like wrappers

Saraki can even be impeach in Oshimole bed room and the federal government will withdrew all his details and ask him to go to court and he will be in court till 2023.

What are they afraid of? Why are they giving themselves sleepless nights?

Its clear now that the only edge PDP and those who defected to PDP have is to ensure saraki remains as senate president. Once he is removed, all their plans would die with his removal.

and it's also very clear now that the only edge A PC and those who remain there have is to ensure Saraki is removed. Once he remains senate president, all that I plans would die. including that of the clueless idiot.
