Saraki would try hard to push till APC primaries are conducted before October 7 inec deadline. After APC primaries, many senator without automatic ticket or the ones their state governors steal and influence their ticket, would simply defect to saraki/dogara's side

Makanjuola89:

You think PDP too won't have a divided house after their primary elections?

abokibuhari:
Tambuwal adjourned the house till December and the then opposition hailed him, Saraki just did his own for just few weeks they want to die. As for me and other meaningful Nigerian youths, Saraki till 2019...

How about the ones that will have issues with PDP, will they remain with PDP or move to APC? You see, thinking with only one part of the brain ain't right.

iammo:

If you are any educated which I doubt, you would know you actually think with one side of your brain and that's the Frontal Lobe, but since you don't know let's go back to politics. Going to the primaries with people like okorocha, ajumobi, aregbe, elrufai, and a co others, If you are smart which I doubt, you would sense more discord and power tussle in APC legislative primaries than PDP

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the Senate President Bukola Saraki has refused to reconvene National Assembly because he is afraid of impeachment.

The APC Acting National Publicity Secretary, Mr Yekini Nabena, in a phone interview with Daily Trust yesterday, said the Senator knew that the party had the two-third majority needed to impeach him.

Nabena said Saraki was just buying time thinking that the party would negotiate with him, advising the Senate President to reconvene National Assembly in the interest of the country.

When asked whether the APC was still insisting that National Assembly should reconvene to consider INEC Budget, virements from Mr President and other issues raised by the National Chairman, he said, “Yes, because it is for the good of the country and the masses if the National Assembly reconvenes. The budget is something that will affect everybody. So, it’s not for personal interest. Budget is meant for the country. We all know that the INEC issue is still outstanding, security and other issues of economic importance.

“So, we are still insisting that Senate President should reconvene the National Assembly. His only fear - he is afraid because he knows that the numbers are there. That is why he is afraid. But he is just buying time. All what he is doing is just to buy time to negotiate with him this time around.”

Asked if the APC was insisting that he (Saraki) should resign, Nabena said, “He needs to resign from the position since he has moved to the PDP. And this is not negotiable. Nobody is negotiating with him. And if he doesn’t, he will be impeached democratically.”

When reminded that there had been argument over what actually constituted the two-third majority, the APC acting spokesman said, “That is what I’m telling you. He knows that the two-third is there. He knows. That is why he is buying time. First of all, he must understand that the country comes first before any individual interest. If that is what is going to make the country move forward, the people also know that. So, the country cannot be held to standstill because of one man. So, if he is not afraid, let him come.”

Well, if you are not too dumb you should have known that such a phrase should be taking literally. A hyperbole you get? Oh! you don't grasp because you aren't that smart.
Then back to politics, I really did not know its only in APC that there will be doom and gloom between the Gov and the reps.. PDP gov and their reps are all blood brothers with no qualms. You know nothing about politics. Just bear palour analogy.

Peacecore:
Chest beater go n tell him to reconvene if he is not afraid

There is no argument on what constitutes 2/3... it is 2/3 of the entire senate.

If its 2/3 of a quorum, we would be having senate presidency change everyday as those in a particular quorum can otherwise be seen as majority aswell.

Don't care if it is "Bear" Parlour or Monkey parlour anology. NASS are on their legal annual recess, soon the primaries is coming, Nigerians shall see the real mother of all defection

Psalter:
Why is Saraki afraid of reconvening the house? What should be paramount is the interest of the country and not personal and selfish interest. I implore Nigerians to view this issue beyond their political leanings but the overall interest of the country.

Saraki has turned APC to opposition party. So am not surprised seeing APC playing opposition role while they are still in power
