Tinubu's supporters are hyperfocused on igbos while the North continues to betray them daily.

You couldn't get simple majority to win Senate president, it is two- third majority that you would now get. Yari thinks two-third majority na beans.

Beer parlor gist

It's not beer parlour gist. I live in Abuja and I'm quite privy to political developments over here.

I'm actually more concerned about how this information got to the media space, cause it's been a well guarded plot. Looks like one of the senators in the inner circles has close aides who cannot put a lock on their lips.

There is a grand scheme to topple the current leadership of the senate through a democratic process. It is being spearheaded by the current Northern politicians. They have been berated by the old Northern order, that they're so docile to the point they're allowing the South dominate their region politically, in this dispensation.

So they have opted to stage a legitimate resistance by courting the majority in the red chamber and they're doing this by any means necessary, even through humongous bribes. Trust me, if Godswill Akpabio doesn't up his game in the days ahead, he'll lose that Senate Presidency and the North will take over control of the Legislative. They've seen it as the best way to have a firm grip on the activities of this current government.

It is constitutionally allowed.

The moment the house majority tilts towards the favour of another party, another election process for the principal senate office is going to be conducted. It is a very easy process.

This is gang up against Tinubu over his recent bold appointments. This move is orchestrated by the north....the southern senators should rally round eachother regardless of political affiliations and dissociate themselves from this evil plot...they should support Tinubu at all cost. Any southerner that supports this evil plot,thunda faya you.

Modified: I posted before seeing Buddha3's post up ∆∆^ there.

I said it,it's a northern plot!

South beware..let's rally round Tinubu

Is PO himself not an old wine. If I remember clearly, LP is his third party. He wasn't even at any point celebrated as best in anything when he was governor. Your holier-than-thou attitude won't lead you anywhere. Simple.

You people give too much credit to Bola Tinubu. Before his emergence in the political scene, there were other politicians.

What makes you think Tinubu has the influence to decide for Legislators from his abode in Aso rock? See, Northerners can die for tribe and religion, but not for money. This particular issue is being pushed on the altar of tribe and ethnicity. The North is already starting to feel disenchanted that the region is being left out of major seats in the country's leadership. Now they're playing the tribal card with the politicians they have left in the current Government. And believe you me, there's no amount of money or material inducement Tinubu can give to any current Northern politician that would sway him to betray the interest of his region.

This particular one, might sadly prove to be beyond Tinubu's control.

Nothing to worry about. Senate President Godswill Akpabio will simply declare their seats vacant and it will be enforced immediately. Bye-election will be conducted and loyal party members will be elected.

Which constitution supports this your adumbration?.

Who's Senate President to declare seats of his EQUAL COLLEAGUES vacant?

Go read your constitution properly my man

And I trust Akpabio to do the right thing within his senate power to protect his seat and also guarantee a good governance. Akpabio is smart and very experience, he would deal decisively with the situation if it ever bring its ugly head up.....

You're joking!

A simple majority of two senators is enough for the opposition to push for another senate election to remove Akpabio.

Sometimes I wonder where you get your political knowledge from. Cause you often sound like someone who has very faint insights into the Nigerian constitution.
