I don't know how to put it but may th families of those who supported this killings meet the same fate.

Childish emotionalism is always what you end up spewing

Those who your smuggled hard drugs have killed in other countries how do you think their families feel about you ipobs?

proeast:
People all over the world now knows that Nigeria is nothing but bad news!? Even this American man is echoing what is already known by all. Sharing a country with characters like buhari, abo.kis and their supporters is the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone!!!

Proeast I am proNigeria so you can relocate and take your development to other countries with your well concealed methamphetamine capsules.

Much of the negative image thrown at Nigeria is because of your people scattered all over the world with the get rich or die trying mentality so much so that even in countries where they know death penalties await them if caught with hard drugs they still desire to smuggle the same drugs there

Truly an airhead. Mr man, what's the correlation between what I wrote and this your zombic rant?

Since you cannot see it that's why you would forever remain a wailer.

Obvious things are always missed by those destined to wail for life

resurgent2019:
I couldn’t be better.

Good to know. Hope you have recovered from the issue about akpabios defection and the recent katsina, bauchi and Kofi defeat?

krendo:
Buhari will have his day with the ICC

That I can guarantee you

Go and drag him there same way you have dragged obasanjo there.

Confused and bitter fellows

Wawa news

Ipob and propaganda are 5 and 6

Guys look its another ipob propaganda from an ipob media outlet EXCLUSIVELY!

resurgent2019:
Hope you are doing good though?

Extremely good. You?

naijapips04:
Shut up. Independent Global corruption monitoring agencies have all rated this administration as the worse in all corruption indexes. Of course to zombie asslickers like you, you would be blind to it. Airhead.

Below is Nigeria's historic corruption index.

You mean when the corrupt began desperately trying to hide their loot in foreign accounts due to the squeeze being applies by the FG?

You have no idea how data for this is gotten do you.

naijapips04:
Really? But Corruption has gotten worse under this regime than all past regimes. Argue with Transparency International.

More like argue with International criminal court ICC

Of course when corruption fights back, it looks like its getting worse in order to delude people like you.

But smart ones like me know better

resurgent2019:
What’s up? It’s been a while!

Been a while for you but not for me

Destiny34:
We are here together and we can salvage our country together:
salvage which country ! with 5% vs 95% or with on going herdsmen killing.

You put yourself in the 5%, class. I never insinuated any percentage nor did I mention herdsmen here.

If your myopic mind cannot reason then don't quote me

He is right about the corrupt side but not right about everyone getting out if they want to get ahead in life.

There was once a time USA and UK were worse than Nigeria and they didn't all get out.

The few brave left and the few with integrity left decided to do something about it and change the status quo .

It took time but it became better. Of course those who are now well off would easily forget how they started and start complaining about those who are where they have left.

We had 16 years to entrench corruption in Nigeria which was initiated in the days of IBB and what has taken so long to dig deep into our country and her citizenry cannot be undone overnight.

We are all here together and we can salvage our country together.

God bless Nigeria
God bless Nigerians
God bless Mr President

You must be a miserable little butterfly with the way you like to turn the truth on it's head without any shame ...well by now nobody is surprised by the rhetorics of the average Buharist who is always looking for an opponent to blame for his action ...They will refuse to order the Military to confront killer herdsmen and yet turn around to blame the opposition , they will order the DSS boss to lay siege on NASS and then turn around and blame Saraki without shame...I feel so much pity foe your dark souls but know that light discover triumph over darkness ... You should be ashamed of yourself for supporting such a useless and evil govt that has nothing to offer but hardship and death ...Even the US UK AU and Saudi Arabia are now clamouring for the removal of your dullard but you zombies are still saying you want him .... Every body cannot he wrong about Buhari being a failure

Let me ask you a very simple question you this ibo man who likes hiding behind Hausa monikers as FarahAideed and SalamRushdie .

If you were the owner of a company that is doing well and another company wishes to buy you out would they not resort to ways of ensuring your stock value drops and becomes almost worthless so that they can .make you an offer and buy you out?

Have you never heard of the business term "HOSTILE TAKE OVER" before?

Its clear you have an echo inside your head since rational analytical thinking is something you have no ability to apply

GavelSlam:

Same person as SalamRushdie. Since he finds it hard to deny he has to try to tarnish all .

I saw where he was indicted as salamrushdie and 2 other monikers like that and since the day I accused him based on this observation I made, he began trying to claim I am you.

Such childishness is just comical to see

GavelSlam:
Don't mind the dummies.

Once you are found to be articulate that assume you are the same individual.

I never really take that farahaideed seriously anyway because all I see in him is senseless hatred and childish emotions that have made his rational mind to take flight

FarahAideed:
Hello ButterflyGavel.. disprove me with facts and not your Fishwife ill manners .... When Benue was in APC na so blood just they flow since they left it's been quite quiet , when Kogi joined APC since then it's been a blood fest there and Ekiti just became an APC nest and the blood has started flowing now ..

I know you are totally bereft of common sense but let me help by lending you some.

When Benue was under APC there were reports of killings every month.

Then PDP told Ortom to defect so the killings can stop and guess what, he defected and the killings stopped.

However it was layer discovered that one of his aides was a sponsor and the Benue government had been paying 20m monthly to that sponsor.

Now the killings have stopped. Did anything extraordinary happen in Benue apart from the defection of ortom and the arrest of his aide?

When security issues of this kind occur in any state, the biggest beneficiary is the Governor bexuase he would get more security votes of which ortom has received several billions in security votes and is yet to account for a penny from that money.

2+2 = 4

Its clear PDP were behind the killings
Its clear Ortoms Aide was in cahoots with him to orchestrate these killings
Its clear that he did this so he can get more money coming to the state as security votes wvi h he can syphon
Its clear that PDP is a major instigator/ beneficiary to violence in the country

When Kogi joined APC, same scenario is playing out because they want to get the people to think APC was behind it. How can a people in power turn against its own people thereby reduce their electoral value? Its only an opponent that would employ any and every means to devalue that which is already valued so they can sneak in and claim the prize.

In war, that tactic is called DIVIDE AND CONQUER. You should look it up.

And lastly I have told you before that I am not gavelslam and if it makes you poo better by assuming I am, then continue

FarahAideed:
Any where APC nests expect blood

Stupidity gave birth to you for this comment you just made

For those who are already doing the usual chant of APC this and that. APC has nothing to gain from this because they have already won the elections. The loser which is PDP and fayose have everything to gain from this and have been known to be shedders of blood.

If this is not a simple assassination due to business gone wrong, then the next place to look should be fayose and his killer thugs same way one of his thugs Akilapa was caught recently with a dead body

PrecisionFx:
PDP didn't lose in 2015 because of 16 years of looting, They lost because the north needed to get power at all costs n since GEJ refused to step aside for a northerner back den, Saraki Tambuwal Dogara Obasanjo El rufai countless senators, countless reps members 5 governors and very many more all left PDP n joined APC just to get power back.

Now the power is back in the north since both PDP n APC are fielding northerners they have fled back to PDP.

Nothing special, But only zombies do not know this.

Maybe you are suffering from selective amnesia because the truth is staring you in the face and you cannot avoid it.

PDP and that ineffectual buffoon were kicked out for 16 years if mismanagement or have you forgotten how our reserves were depleted in the time of plenty? Or how GEJ was known as the ATM with no pin number?

The list of their atrocities are endless. Keep deceiving yourself especially as I said, only the fraudulent can defend the fraudulent and only those with zero integrity would side the same.

PrecisionFx:
PDP does not pay anyone here to defend any dullard, Pdp has no dullards

Apparently PDP are all dullards if after 16 years of national mismanagement they still think Nigerians are stupid enough to embrace them so they can come and finish the damage they began.

Notice they came 3rd in the most recent by elections so much so that baby political parties fared better? The writing is on the wall.

That being said, nobody needs to pay for truth but people can always pay for lies and negative propaganda which is what PDP has been doing since 2015 when they lost

cornoil:
why are you so obsessed with Bukola Saraki? Anyone that shares opposite view wit Sai Baba automatically becomes your enemy.

This is not about enemies but all about truth and equity being upheld in the hallowed chambers.

Saraki has desecrated the hallowed chambers and every upholder of truth and patriotic Nigerians know this.

Only the fraudulent and those with zero integrity would side with saraki on this .

Th dullard is now rejecting the same card reader that he hailed as what brought him to power, He hailed the card reader as what made pdp not to rig the last elections.


anyway am no longer shocked @ ur posts, bmc gotta chop by end of the month sha

Still being peurile I see and FYI I am aware that the LMC have to desperately earn their keep as the Looters Media Crew they are which is why you would defend fraud, fraudulent people and all manner of illegality over your 20k stipend monthly.

I would have easily given you that 20k monthly for free if you had only asked

People like Bukola Saraki, the hugely compromised and controversial Senate President, believe that Nigeria is perpetually indebted to them. How he and his likes came about that ingrained entitlement mentality beats me. How they had come to the conclusion that Nigeria owes them baffles me. Considering that they have taken more than the fair share of the national cake, this mentality should be the other way round because the country has suffered
precarious hemorrhage to meet the elephantine cravings of the Sarakis and their ilk, who have come to believe that the country should serve them and them alone.

The Saraki family history speaks of long years of predation which the country had borne. The Bukola Saraki case is more confounding! Here is a fellow who has been living off the state for the better parts of his life, a person who has appropriated several high political offices and dedicated them to the service of self and self alone.

Perhaps what has helped Saraki to maintain and deepen his stranglehold on the country’s political space is the moral bankruptcy that encases his political career. Saraki is a moral invalid who cares no hoot about the morality of his ambition so long as it will eventually offer a bounteous reward for Bukola Saraki. He makes no pretences about being a moral cripple that holds fast to the belief that the end justifies the means. Nowhere is this moral bankruptcy so displayed than his surreptitious conspiracy with the desperate opposition to steal his party’s Senate presidency and trade off the Deputy Presidency of the Senate to his cahoots in the process.

When his party was still in a meeting to iron out issues relating to the Senate presidency, Saraki rallied the minority opposition, cheekily gave them the deputy presidency of the Senate and took the Senate presidency. Helped by President Buhari’s lethargic attitude to who emerged the Senate President, Saraki rode roughshod over his party which dithered as the situation demanded a clear-cut action to quell Saraki’s insurrection and instill discipline within the party.

If Saraki’s means of stealing the Senate presidency was abhorrent, his efforts to hang on to the office, despite a plethora of serious criminal and corrupt indictments is noxious. It was obvious in the past three years of Saraki’s headship of the Senate that he can do anything to hang on to office. He had dragged the Senate to its lowest nadir in reputation, as the visage of a Senate that closes plenary to accompany Saraki to his many shameful court trials marks an all-time low for what should pass as the hallowed law-making chamber of any nation. Saraki ferociously fended off every effort to call his non-existent moral hue to action as the Senate became the butt of the scorn of perplexed citizens, who were at a loss to reconcile Saraki’s obdurate hanging to office with the lofty demands of the Senate presidency.

With the belief that all is fair in battle, Saraki ignored every effort to make him see the honour in not engaging in a muddy fight that will reduce the Senate in the eyes of Nigerians. With a plaint, hugely-compromised and ethically rusty judiciary, it is easy for the Sarakis and all those that believe
with him that Nigeria could be bent to serve their narrow whims, to walk away from the very obvious indictments that keep stalking them.

With a judiciary that excels in descending heavily on petty crimes than on huge crimes committed against the mass of the people, it is easy for Saraki to walk through impregnable indictments and walk away with blue murder, as we keep seeing in the chequered history of Nigeria but then, the Sarakis have come to see themselves as the approximation of the Nigerian state and have often mocked our collective impotence in calling them to order.

But then, in his latest struggle to keep the Senate presidency after walking away from the party that rightly owns the seat, Saraki is charting newer courses in self-aggrandizement and this may sound his waterloo in his assumed impregnable political life. Saraki recently choreographed the defection of some Senators and House of Representatives members from the APC to the PDP. He was to follow days later with an announcement of his own defection to the PDP. Despite all his efforts and a generous sponsorship of media misinterpretation of the
implications of his action, his new party, PDP, still fell short of the numbers needed to dislodge the APC as the ruling party in the senate.

That should have informed him to immediately resign from the Senate presidency, but he would
hear none of that. He wants to walk away with his loot. His new party, so impervious to honour, is urging him on. To them, it is a gangster’s game and the smartest gangster will keep the trophy. What more, Saraki considers himself the smartest thing God created so why won’t he and PDP huff and puff if that will allow them keep the booty?

Let’s briefly recap that extensive smart input Saraki put to his latest antic. He and his acolytes had long been grumbling over being left out in the APC while making noisome boasts of their electoral prowess. As they sensed their game was getting to the breaking point, they sponsored some of their cronies to claim to have founded what they called Reformed APC as a way to create a semblance of factionalisation in APC.

That done, they planned an extensive pullout where they boasted that over 30 senators were set to decamp from APC to PDP. They proceeded
to make a daily catena of their readiness to defect, and when that seemed not to move APC to acquiesce to their clear blackmail of granting them some imponderable concessions, Saraki staged a show. In cahoots with the PDP hierarchy, he organised a defection drama. On the day of the said defection, he and his deputy organised a scam blockade of their residences.

How they managed to evade the so-called blockade meant to allegedly prevent them from defecting, is still whirling in the wind. But the bottom line was that Saraki found himself in the Senate, where he gleefully announced that 15 Senators had defected from APC to PDP and quickly adjourned the Senate for over two months!

Whoever had an inkling of Saraki’s game plan knew that he failed in the coup he wanted to pull off. Saraki was working on at least 30 Senators defecting from APC to PDP to give his party the lead it needed to retain him as Senate President. It was alleged that he copiously compiled the list of over 30 senators he felt were having issues with the APC as his defection list. Even when he announced the defections, the compromised lazy media was put on hand to announce that PDP had taken over the Senate and was now in the majority.

Like heedless sheep, they did just that but Saraki was not convinced hence he announced a surprising two months’ adjournment even when critical pressing issues were on the agenda of the Senate. Believing that time would offer him ideas on how to deal with the issue, Saraki knew that his objective to get a PDP majority needed to retain him as Senate President failed and in a desperate bid for time, he had to quickly adjourn the Senate for a long period.

But then, even with his failure to twist the majority of Senators to the PDP, the shenanigans surrounding Saraki’s so- called fifteen defectors emerged soon after as some of the 15 Senators that allegedly defected, distanced themselves from the mess. Some others alleged that they defected to other parties and not to PDP as Saraki desperately announced. Again, there were allegations that Saraki refused to also announce the defection of Senators Hope Uzodimma from Imo, Sonnie Ogbuji from Ebonyi and Fatima Raji-Rasaki from Ekiti, after these had sent correspondences to that effect. But perhaps, Saraki’s house of cards was to tumble few days after when the Senate Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, announced his defection from PDP to APC.

That was enough to burst Saraki and PDP’s bubble and finding that they didn’t realise their original aim of swerving the Senate to a PDP controlled senate, they now focused on adopting quite bizarre tactics that are rooted in scare mongering and putrid blackmail to ensure they retain the Senate leadership, even when they are in clear minority.

What is curious is what made Saraki and PDP think that APC will sit idly by and watch them steal the senate presidency. If indeed there is no honour in the game and all those that are preaching to Saraki to resign on moral grounds are wasting their time, as they oft say, what makes them think that APC will submit itself to honour in removing Saraki? If Saraki and PDP feel they are the smartest gangsters that have succeeded in robbing the senate presidency, what makes them think that APC will restrict itself to the realm of morality in removing Saraki?

If Saraki and PDP feel that all is fair in war, what makes them think APC will buy their naïve efforts to reduce the issue of removing Saraki to what is moral and not what is practicable? How can a Saraki that forged Senate rules to steal the Senate presidency and who was elected by only 57 Senators think the APC will shackle itself and wait till all the 109 senators have convened to remove Saraki?

Saraki and PDP know that it is a clear aberration to allow them to retain the Senate presidency when they are in the minority. That is where many are appealing to Saraki and PDP’s non-existent honour and morals which is like pouring water on stone. So APC must do everything possible to remove Saraki since he feels it is a gangster’s game. So from whichever angle one looks at it, Saraki is crippled from continuing as Senate President.

Constitutions in developed countries are usually not voluminous because everybody in such societies know what honour, morals and integrity are and play by the rules. Every game has a rule and in legislative institutions, the party that commands the majority of legislators control the legislature. It is often not written but well accepted and hardly violated. Perhaps after the removal of Saraki, this will become an integral part of our Constitution since Nigeria is a smart haven and whatever is not written down is not adhered to. Saraki must be taken down since he can’t muster the integrity, morality, honour to resign.

That same Doctrine of Necessity that made Jonathan Acting President must be invoked to remove Saraki who wants to relocate to another location with a stolen crown. I see clearly the end of the charmed Saraki political exploits. The cloud is thickening, the tempest is gathering and what a way for Bukola Saraki, the smart political player, to end his unfurling rich political life if he is to be removed in a shameful and disgraceful manner because he lacks the moral capacity to do what is right.

I thought u buharists said only Buhari body odour causes a tsunami of victory for other apc members in elections talk more of himself.

why him de fear

This has nothing to do with fear or electoral victory but has everything to do with fairness and looking out for the common man like you.

The electoral order should remain the way it is.

Stop thinking and talking like an emotional child

errhis:
Sir, saraki took ekiti from his father right before his very eyes and he could do nothing about it. Saraki emerged the Senate president of Nigeria against the will of APC and there was nothing they could do about it.
Saraki might not be as powerful and influential as the president or other candidates, but he his by eon smarter than they all in all facet of knowledge. He his ambitious and this are the proper ingredients for Success. Even if he his evil, we lack someone with this kind of wisdom in Aso rock

He FRAUDULENTLY achieved all that. Mark the word FRAUDULENT.

Celebrate that

centoke30:
please is there any problem or faction in the PDP at the moment?

Was there any in the APC?

TheAdvocate:
I am sure you don't even know how someone becomes a senator. The fact that a person won election into the senate and issued with a return certificate doesn't make him a senator yet. There are processes to be done in the senate chambers before he takes his seat.

I am equally surprised that APC is counting a convicted senator as its member. The position of the law is that a convict cannot hold political or civil service job in Nigeria unless pardoned or his conviction is set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Again, during the last senate plenary, 15 senators jointly signed a letter of defection which was read on the floor. One of them protested that he didn't defect and the list was amended and subsequently passed as a resolution of the senate which is a law unto itself. The others like Tejousho and co who never objected cannot parade themselves as members of the senate unless they write the senate again and it will be passed as a resolution of the senate.

Legally too, the defection of Akpabio is also ultravires the law. A senator who seeks to defect must write the senate president that he intends to do so and it will also be passed as a resolution and have the backing of the law. Akpabio is yet to do because he decamped during the recess.

In the case of AGF V. Atiku Abubakar (2005) 10 NWLR, the almighty Supreme Court stated that a senator or house member can only defect when his party is divided at the national level or there is a legal merger of 2 political parties which includes the one he was elected on its platform.

As it is, the seat of Akpabio and all those who decamped without their letter read on the floor of the senate should be declared vacant.

I so moved.

Why do you lie so unashamedly?

Attached is Akpabios letter of resignation. Who were those copied?

2odd:
I agree with you in bit ,lemme ask you , before saraki emerged
PDP HAVE MORE THAN 37 MEMBERS RIGHT ,THEY FORMED A QUOROM ,WHAT STOPPED THEM FROM HAVING THE SENATE PRESIDENT SINCE DAY ONE?? EVEN IF ALL APC MEMBERS WERE IN MEETING WITH BUHARI ON THAT DAY ??

A quorum is not what is required to elect or impeach.

2/3 majority of members present is what is required for impeachment or election. But therein is the ambiguity and that was what saraki took advantage of and got in through that loophole with 57 senators out of which 37 were PDP and the majority party only had 20 votes.

Even his action was illegal because the President had to first address a new senate prior to any elections and he went against this legal norm

centoke30:
lets get something straight here, as far as Saraki have not read the defection letters of all those who moved to APC including Hope Uzodinma, Akpabio, Sonni mgboji, that ekiti woman, and others, they are still not referred as APC. and one thing is that Saraki was so intelligent that they first formed a faction based on the marginalising factor. what will Akpabio and others say Wen they will be asked to explain their defection reason when the constitution clearly stipulates that there must be an irreconcilable difference with the party

Once the senate reconvenes one of the first demands that would be placed on him would be for him to read the defection letters.

He has since been denying he has them (which is another lie)

lagosrd:
Bros two senators have filed a suit wrt that yesterday. Trying to remove Saraki will only give this government a and name and spell doom for this country. There will definitely be commotion. Oshiomole is a complete dunnes and dumbass. He thinks removing Saraki will solve his problems come 2019. Have you imagine how oyegun will be feeling now?
Meanwhile no matter how many DSS, POLICE and other security agencies deployed you will see the outcome for yourself. Let Saraki remain and that Inec budget be reviewed. Why is APC so aggressive about that outrageous inevitable budget. Nobody seems talking about it. They have the machines, personnels and etc yet see how much they want to collect. 2.5 times 2015 election. Saraki is not Nigeria's problems. You could imagine what made some MDG submit their budget late. Let me how that kind of budget won't be padded. Playing let me know.

Emotions are not a part of legal processes so you can try and stop being emotional about what you are saying.

There is a legal principle applicable to the hallowed chambers of the senate and it is expected that the senate president must be a person of impeccable character and very high levels of integrity.

The very day saraki was made SP he did so on a illegality. He fraudulently mounted that seat and ever since that day, every other action of his has been majorly fraudulent.

He has delayed budgets for Nigeria for over 6 months and people like you didn't say anything even when you knew he did so for selfish reasons so he can pad it (which is another illegality)

He has been linked to being sponsors of political thugs who later got involved in armed robbery and killed 33 people.

He has lots of fraudulent charges both home and abroad hanging on his neck.

His people in Kwara all took to the streets in protest calling him a thief on national and international television.

He is running the senate ad if it was his property and based on his whims and caprices and has somehow coerced other senators to become foolish as they act in same manner.

He has turned the hallowed chambers to a place of disrepute especially when senators were seen the other day turning it into a bar.

He is not fit to be in the senate not to talk about being senate president.

He is one of the major problems in Nigeria.

Oshiomhole is very right with his utterances and decisions regarding saraki

Saraki is only popular with the emotional like you and the fraudulent. But to the learned and patriotic, he is a cancer that needs to be eradicated.

This is not about DSS or police or any other arm of law in Nigeria. This is about doing what is right with regards to the legislative arm of Government known as the senate.

mknigeriagreat:
You should leave some of these SS1 students alone they ain't worth your time. The same Saraki that was elected under the noses of only 57 senators present? Now to impeach him they are shouting 73. If he knows that 73 senators are needed to unseat him, why where they fighting DSS that day and trying to force themselves in since APC has less than 55 senators? I don't know how a new Assembly can legally commence without the proclamation of the President of the Federation Republic. And he sat, commenced the senate while the president was to meet with them in ICC? Buhari not being a real politician gave him too much space and he over stepped his boundaries. The likes of Tinubu and the rest knew what they were saying trying to step him down from his illegally acquired senate presidency. God help this country.

And you can hear the legal illiterates supporting his illegality too without pausing to first understand its far reaching implications.

lagosrd:
So is it your job to solve the ambiguity in the constitution or do you think motor park strategy is deployed. If care is not taken oshiomole and his band wagon will set this country on fire.

Nobody is setting anywhere on fire. Its the job of the courts to address the ambiguity but this cannot be done unless there is a lawsuit filed to that effect and you cannot just file a law suit without an " infraction" to the law being committed.

Notice I put infraction in quotes and that's because it may also not be an infraction based on interpretation of that portion of the constitution.

The constitution is silent regarding number of senators to be present but is very clear regarding percentage of votes required.

The only hint it gave regarding number of senators is the word MAJORITY which itself is ambiguous because same majority could also.mean a number greater than half the total number of senators in the senate.

Total senators is 109

Any number such as 55 senators or above form a Majority of the members of the house.

That is the loophole in that constitution and saraki can be impeached based on this. He can thereafter go and seek redress in court but would no longer be senate president while doing so.

Case can be adjourned and readjourned until after the elections in 2019 at which point the lawsuit would become useless
