The people complaining here never supported nor voted for PMB. So, what's the fuss all about?

Naira is not dropping at the speed of light, it is still 199 at the official rate. It is bureau de change rate that is fluctuating. That rate hit a 240 high under Jonathan despite NOI wasting $2billion to stop it. It's a falling knife already, so get some patience. Also, Jonathan appointed ministers July 11 so baba never late yet. Yaradua and OBJ were similar, the world has not ended yet.

Dogora can't chose pdp leader in d house for pdp likewise Apc, so,Dogora should do the needful by anouncing APc candidate by Apc to lead Apc in the house.

It seems I'm now believing the Members of the House of Reps more than our Senators. Hadn't been Saraki was the Speaker and tries what he's trying in the Senate floor, in the House chambers, I believe he would have been laid to rest by now. It wouldn't take a member a second to accost him and hurt him. You may call that legislative rascality, but it's welcomed in times like this.

The Party has the SAY on who is to be the Majority Leader and all that, all the Senate President or House Speaker has to do is just announce the list submitted by the Party.

Ahmad Ali, who was the Former Chairmen (7th) House Committee on Justice was asked to leave the House of Reps and contest (Kwara) State House of Assembly Seat. He won and he was eventually made the Speaker. Who aided that? The Chief Godfather of Kwara Politics (Saraki). He believes in imposition in his State but doesn't believe in it at the Central because it wouldn't favour him.

As usual, PDPians would invade this thread and commend the duo (Saraki and Dogara). My question for you guys is: "Did Tambuwal refuse to announce the names submitted to him by PDP in 2011 as Principal Officers?" If NO, then y'all (TANdroids) should shut that bleep!

Here in Onitsha, extra judiciary killing was common during the era of Bakassi. But in the month of June, over 3 armed robbers have been burnt in the street of Obosi. I'm not supporting armed robbers, my point is, this Kanu guy is having a disturbing influence on his followers.

If not check, I fear his many followers won't think twice before killing their neighbors that doesn't support biafra, even family members. Since everyone that doesn't support is regarded as an enemy.

Cadamlk:
I support that too.At least it will reduce the influx of arms into the country .

fitzmayowa:
With the rate APC is "mocking" everything that concerns the national assembly, I hope the 8th assembly won't be a MOCKERY...

NgeneUkwenu:
I am happy, that even his core supporters are now feeling highly embarrassed by his selfish action.

Saraki should not and Can Never be bigger than his Party! Expel Him Now, Heaven Will Not Fall!

NgeneUkwenu:
Buhari should Reign on this traitor called Saraki, let him defect to PDP and dig his political grave!

Enough of this nonsense pettings!

Your knowledge of Politics is very little.

The fact is that in politics Loyalty is very key. For a president -most especially Nigerian president- to succeed, he needs a senate president that can be loyal, trusted and a reliable party ally. Because the nigerian politics is a "winner takes all" kind of politics. Even the president realised this too late which is the reason why he is now angry with Bukola after declaring his readiness to work with him. All this was due to the inexperience of PMB and APC at the federal level.

Does a Bukola saraki have any of those traits? Someone who betrayed his own father and sister.

The undeniable truth is that Bukola can betray anyone for his personal ambition and it is very dangerous for a president to rely on such person.

Nigeria's politicians are very unstable, so much so that i consider your assumptions to be political miscalculations. Before 2019 you could see these men hugging themselves like they are gay.

.....Mr your comment is very funny and sheer display of ignorance.
Let me lecture you a bit on the science of politics.
1.comparing Tinubu and Saraki head to head is like comparing life and death.they are not mates and it's a complete mismatch.you yourself that typed those rubbish above know this cos Tinubu was never a product of anybody but he personally built his political status unlike Saraki that was just a mere beneficiary of his father political legacy.where was Saraki when Tinubu was busy building his political empire?,Saraki was still in SGB embezzling their money.
2.Tinubu is not nursing any political ambition anymore except that he just wanted to build a strong party he laboured to bring to the national prominence and leave an enduring legacy unlike Saraki that's still nursing more political ambition.so you would expect their approach to be different.
3.Tinubu has been in an opposition all his life starting from military days and has weathered all the storms that came with it unlike Saraki that has never being in opposition and has always been having his romance with the ruling party.if you still have any memory left,you could have easily remember what he went through in the senate when he decamped to this same party just last year.
4.your claim that he is a godfather on his own,mention people he has been able to mentor in politics unlike Tinubu that has built leaders everwhere.
5.since you are so sure of his political sagacity,why didn't he form his own party when he left pdp instead of coming to join apc that's already gaining grounds?,at least Buhari despite his lean financial muscles,still managed to formed Cpc.
6.Is Tinubu only the decision making organ of apc?,what is the work of their nwc?.if everything falls on him,that means he is only being genius and professional.
Mention one politician alive today that you can put side a side with Tinubu?.none.he was only a governor but he has been able to extend his tentacles because he has a vision.this man play a politics of compromise....give and take,that is why he's a leader.
Finally boy,let simple reason prevails whenever judgement comes and not based on personal hatred.Also,I would encourage you to read more books on politics so you can be vastly informed.may God help you as you do so.

Tinubu coming together with Buhari won't have mattered if GEJ performed. He did not perform and was a very divisive figure. If he was well advised and treated the SW properly he could have marginalized Tinubu. Tinubu is not that respected in the SW contrary to what APC supporters might think. GEJ disrespected the SW that is why he lost there. By the time he started sharing his dollars it was too late. He was inexperienced and allowed himself to be misused by Eboes thus losing the final opportunity for southern solidarity against the north

gwales:
Wike the wicked

omonnakoda:
All of us removed GEJ not Tinubu,yes he played an important role no doubt but ultimately GEJ removed himself because he was clueless and from a minority ethnic group and failed to understand that latter point

[size=13pt]the OP must have smoked oshogbo weed
thief-nubu has not yet recovered from events that led to the emergence of Saraki n Dogara as Senate President n Speaker.
thief-nubu will still be shocked when Buhari releases his ministerial list, this is Federal Politics and not the amala n Ewedu politics u people play in Lagos n Osun state. [/size]

disumusa:
you an ibo man who is always happy on another mans property or achivement is saraki an ibo or pdp remember all other official apointment in senate,house will be apc so dogara and bukola will become toothles dog.

omonnakoda:
There is no need to "outsmart" Tinubu.Tinubu can never be president of Nigeria and he has accepted that I hope. Even if there is a need to outsmart him the timing and theatre are wrong.What real power does Senate president have ,sharing so called "juicy" committees. There will be no juicy committes for the next 4 years under Buhari and Senate president only has one vote and from past experience cannot tell others how to vote

Moheat:
Your opinion though!
