Saraki's "bloodless coup" or better put in military terms "blitzkrieg" as agitated members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) chose to call it, was subterfuge of the very highest order.

The hierarchy of the Party had on defeating an incumbent Government in 2015, the first time in our history, positioned and backed Ahmad Lawan, a ranking member and Senator representing Yobe North Senatorial District as the next President of the NASS.

It was impossible for the former Kwara State Governor to have pulled through but for the support of the leading opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. The APC had to ensure a repeat performance won't happen in 2019 by whipping members in line, on time and ensuring a last minute discussion by President Muhammadu Buhari with Senator Danjuma Goje (Gombe Central Senatorial Zone) puncturing any hope of a deja vu.

Fast forward to 2023 with a President-Elect (SW) and a Vice President-Elect (NE) both of same faith, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and top Party apparatchik have tacitly endorsed the Senator representing Akwa Ibom North-West, Godswill Obot Akpabio for Senate President.

What will have been a consensus and easy crowning with the withdrawal of Senators Ndume, Umahi and Barau Jibrin, backing Akpabio, is becoming a hard nut to crack with Yari refusing to step down.

Abdul'Aziz Yari, a former Zamfara State Governor and a ranking member in the Senate has insisted to run the whole race.

"What is going to happen that day, it is going to happen based on the instructions of the Constitution and not for anyone.” The election of the President of NASS is the Senate's business", the Zamfara West Senator was quoted as saying.

The APC controls 59 seats, PDP 36, LP 8, NNPP 2, APGA 1, SDP 2 and YPP 1.

At the burial of the father of Bayelsa State Governor today, Pa Abraham Diri, Yari was seen flirting with the highest echelons of the PDP. Present was VP Yemi Osinbajo, former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, Atiku Abubakar, PDP Vice Presidential Candidate: Ifeanyi Okowa, LP Presidential Candidate Peter Obi, Senator-Elect Tambuwal, Senator-Elect Ned Nwoko and a host of other Senators.

Are we going to have a Saraki 2.0?

I thought they have sold it to Akpabio ?

And the other short man devil from Edo North is still changing the old druggie's pampers to see if he will be considered 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

I didn't mention names o 🤣

..

The truth is that the senators are afraid and are being cautious on whom gets the Senate presidency and house of rep . They no tinubu is very likely not going to be president.

No matter how they plan, they have it at the back of their mind that constitutionally Nigeria has no president elect.

Will the CJN damn the consequences and swear in an unconstitutional president? I don't think so. I don't see that happening.

Let's keep our fingers crossed and keep watching. Events kicks off on monday.
But one certain sure fact I know is PODATTI is coming.
The new OBIDIENT Nigeria is at hand.

Who knows 🤔

These criminals are always linked to efcc

Just search his name and efcc

They can't stop stealing

Obasanjo should go and rest please. He's the pioneer of whatever type of democracy we are doing in Nigeria today . All of a sudden they have become an overnight saint

How can a coup not be in the offing with about 10 persons longing to contest for the office of the senate president? See how politicians congregating to scheme against the populace.

PDP dislikes SE despite their many years of investment in the party. If PDP wants to hijack legislative arm, it should be through ranking legislators from SE and not Yari and Wase

I actually want another Saraki scenerio to play at at the 10th senate.

We must not have a rubber stamp Senate President.

Stop deceiving ur self. Obi will never be the president of Nigeria.

Yari doesn't have what it takes to do a Saraki, moreover, they are dealing with a more experienced politician in Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Very interesting times for the 10th assembly. Akpabio's candidacy and Tinubu's choices in general still bears more weight and that is going to be hard to overcome. Tinubu is slowly winning the hearts of Nigerians and the the politicians don't want to be in his bad books.

Pierced:


Stop deceiving ur self. Obi will never be the president of Nigeria.

Go and tell that to the over 6 million people that voted for him on a labour party platform .

Clown.

We all know why 6 million people voted for your religious bigot.

The opposition party will have their way in the Senate and the House of Representatives too. Saraki 2.0 will surely happened in the Senate and the House of Representatives. APC betrayed Orji Uzor Kalu and Kalu will do the needful on them too.

How will that happen, please?

He doesn't have the numbers!
Yari is a crooked which will be tamed. He has shown the signs from the failed reelection of Gov. Bello Matawalle!

Can you likely explain how this will happen?

When I say THIS APC/Tinubu Govt will be Full of KataKata and will NOT achieve Anything tangible,
Peeps will be Cussing me.
Even NL Mods like Mynd44 will Ban me.😒

Too Many Old, Greedy Fellows in APC, just like the President Select himself. 😕


BTW, I remember Saraki Bravadoic Legislative Coup in 2015. It will be one of the Historic/Infamous moments in our Democracy.

He Outwitted and Thrashed Tinubu, Lawan in the Senate and Even Gbajabiamila in the HOR. 😊😎

Dindinrin!!! You better wake up

Dead on arrival.

A Northerner, not again, we will never give any Northerner any appointment again.

Buhari regime is over, the North will never rule Nigeria again

Tinubu is not Buhari.

When are you likely going to wake from delusion. Stop soothing your soul with fallacy, you are so confident as if you are part of the judges that will deliver the judgement. I hope the outcome won't send you into coma
