Assuming Federal Character was meant to be applicable to the National Assembly, then certainly one of the Houses of the National Assembly must be headed by a Southerner. Remember sir, that in the run-up to the election of the Senate President and Speaker, our party made a deliberate choice, to apply this same principle of Federal Character such that all qualified zones will be represented in the spirit of national unity, which we embrace, but we all know how that ended

Wrs osinbade,d 'mere commisioner'vp

He's at Aso Rock...Presently, as things stand, with the president out of he country for some days, he's in control of everything.

Kulas:
Anyway I was among those that called him Alhaji Abubakar Okorocha then.Well for now,he stand a chance more than any other igbo man of becoming d president.Besides he grew in North n speaks Hausa and behaves like them.

Now you're talking politics

As long as he didn't make a mistake of saying ' our party-PDP', ba problem.

I heard the blunder but I don't blame Sai baba jo.It's not easy to contest four times under three different parties that sounds alike. I mean from All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP) to Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) to All Progressives Congress (APC)...it's not easy. Baba carry go...this will not prevent you from retrieving all our money back from those thieves...

Okorocha-the top contender to be the next Southern President of Nigeria provided....

Nigeria's first female medical doctor Wow...RIP Mama

OrlandoOwoh:
Joseph Mbu should be the CP of Borno State.

Wicked

IAMTHEHERO:
Even as wicked and ugly as Obasanjo was when he was the president of Nigeria.Even as sick as Yar'dua was when he was there.Even as Clueless as GEJ was when he was there,none of them had ever traveled with their son. Chaii, Nigeria ,why,why?We are in for a long thing.

But they all travelled with their wives

Wow...I can't see his wife's name

That's my governor...Eko o ni baje o

The general is not Smiling......


SARAKI KNOWS BETTER

Not smiling at all. Second picture is so funny...see Saraki eyes, mouth and cheeks... I smell fear

calmbabadee:
When saraki sees dat photograph up there. He go pee for his pant.


The General ain't smiling at alllllllll

Well said

Ghandi12:
If truly there are no verifiable records of the 7th Senate amending the Senate Standing orders 2011 then the SUF have a very good case. Apart from the usual suspects police may want to find out from the Clerk where he got the controversial 2015 Standing orders from.

Who forged the document? Of course PDP forged the document. SP Saraki with his 7 APC friends are back in PDP.


This is a very easy way for Buhari-Led-APC to legally destroy its enemies in the Senate before they do more damage.

If no one owns up to the document and the 7th Senate records do not show its origin APC should just snatch back their right now before things get messier.

On point

adioolayi:
Is Melaye the APC, Senate or Sarakis spokes person?

I ask myself the same question. APC is making a big mistake by not punishing these guys.

you reduce , wahala

human beings??

I think he's actually right from the view point of law. What he's simply saying is that, they have to take the full money and give whatever they want to donate back to the Federal or state purse.

Ghandi12:
Your choice of word is similar to the alleged one used by the SP Bukola Saraki on the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. Everyone that expects respect from others should understand the law of reciprocity.

Civil service is an enviable career and should not be derided. Politicians are not necessarily more intelligent or more resourceful than their contemporaries in civil service. Fashola, Oshiomole, El-Rufai, Ribadu, Osinbajo, and many others are products of Nigeria civil service and they are all still contributing to the development of this Nation.

God bless you...

9jatatafo:

PMB is a sole administrator. It beats my imagination that a democratically elected president has no ministers. APC are accusing the ex finance minister that she withdrew some money without approval and I am wondering who approved the funds PMB shared to states all in the name of bail out. We are in a big mess

What do we get from Ministers like Deziani, Okonjo Iweala and co...

Whynotthetruth:
Maybe soon his APC supporters alongside PDP will team together to impeach buhari...they have the numbers bro... and he will graduate to president immediately

If there's anyone that'll be impeached, it's Saraki...you think the northerners are that stupid. You sincerely think they'll impeach Buhari for Osinbajo to be president? Are you kidding me? They'll rather use Saraki as a sacrificial goat or cow.

Whynotthetruth:
Maybe soon his APC supporters alongside PDP will team together to impeach buhari...they have the numbers bro... and he will graduate to president immediately

Let's assume for a minute that they have the numbers( we all know that's not right) but don't forget that Buhari has the power...You don't mess with a president. They dare not.

bamidele029:
He he he, Saraki you sef don become ordinary senate president karma is on time

'Ordinary Senate President'. But seriously, the way this is going, no one will respect Saraki o...

Recently, the labour leaders calls for 60 percent cut in national assembly members salaries and allowances. It is no more news that the President and his Vice last week cut their salaries by 50%.

The National Assembly members are expected to follow suit in the next few days when they come back from recess if not, according to an insider, the president is prepared to do the needful without any further delays.

nerodenero:
PMB sent an invite to APC senators, Sarakill declined. VP PYO sent an invite to Sarakill, he said, 'he couldn't honour an invite from a mere Commissioner'. APC sent a letter indicating the names of principal officers, Sarakill disobeyed.

I don't think Sarakill has ANY right to get angry if such is done to him.

True talk

ayindejimmy:
This Momodu guy is one big sycophant.
I used to hold him in high esteem because he also went on exile for the annulment of June 12.
I even tipped him to replace Doyin Okupe as Buhari’s media spokesman
But when I saw him with Saraki.... Everything was lost.
Loyalty is very important in politics
I don't fancy Tinubu too. But when you speak of politicians wit principles, loyalty and strategies - Tinubu is topnotch in the realm of Nigerian politics.
And, Tinubu might be alleged to be corrupt like every politicians, but he's know to install diligent people in position. I think he favoured Lawan over Saraki because Lawan will be more loyal in pursuing the party’s agenda better than Saraki who is more inclined to Atiku - the rattle snake
And we all know Atiku is just on loan to APC

You nailed it. Gbam.

StOla:
If Amaechi does not use federal powers to deal with Wike the same way he was harassed as governor, then it means there's no justice in the world.

Wike's tenure must be made miserable for him. That is the bed he laid, the tout must lie on it.

Wike must wail tears into a bucket, then we will play the record of his past thuggish statements against the elected state government of Amaechi to console him.

Time for Wike to feel what Amaechi felt under Rivers police commissioner Joseph Mbu....karma things...
