PoliticsUnveiling Senator Saraki – The Man On A Mission To Bring The PDP Back To Power by integralng(op): 10:05am On Jul 17, 2015
Senator Saraki, Now That The Falcons Can Still Hear The Falconers – By Adedeji Adebayo

It is no longer news that Senator Bukola Saraki, representing Kwara Central, emerged the
President of the 8th assembly in a controversial circumstance that has pitted him against his
party’s leadership; in an election where 57 members only decided whom to lead a legislative
house of 109 members. No better expression can be used to describe the scenario that played
out on June 9, 2015, than conspiratorial affirmation.Subterfuge.

Prior to the June 9 inauguration, it was (in principle) resolved upon by the APC’s National
Working Committee that the position of the Senate President should be zoned to the North-East
for equity and fairness. The NWC of the party were of the view that the zone, which has been
terribly hit by the Boko Haram insurgents, gave the party the second highest votes after North-
West, where President Buhari hails from. Since 1999 when the 4th Republic began, the highest
position that has gone to the zone in the Senate was Deputy Majority Leader (which was
occupied by Senator Maina Lawan from Borno State who later became Minority Leader in 2007
when he defected to the ANPP). It was on the strength of these numerous arguments that Senator George Akume, whose North Central zone produced the Senate President from 2007-2015 in the
person of David Mark, shelved his ambition of becoming the Senate President.

Akume, it must be pointed out, was Governor of Benue State(1999-2007): while Bukola Saraki only became Governor of Kwara State in 2003. Also, whereas Akume was first elected to the Senate in 2007, Saraki’s first stint at the Red Chamber was in 2011. In 2011, Akume became the Minority
Leader in the Senate on the platform of Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), one of the legacy
parties that consummated the All Progressives Congress(APC). From 2011 until the dissolution of the 7th Assembly, Akume was a cynosure of all eyes and emblem of the opposition in the
Senate.

In advanced democracies like Britain and the United States, the Minority Leader usually
transmutes into the primus inter pares in the legislative assembly as soon as his party forms the
central government. So Akume, by all standards, deserves the Senate Presidency than anyone
else. But being a disciplined and loyal party man, Akume complied with the directive of the party
and settled for the position of the Deputy Senate President. However, all the pleas of the party
leaders to Saraki (also from North-Central) to stand-down for Senator Lawan, who is from North-East and has been in the National Assembly since 1999 (in the House of Representatives 1999-2007 and the Senate 2007 till date), fell on deaf ears.

To maintain cohesion in the party and present a united front in the Senate (having regard to the
fact that the new opposition party PDP was lurking in the corner to take advantage of any
balcanisation in the APC), the APC NWC conducted a straw poll where senators on the party’s
platform would choose one candidate. While 33 senators preferred Senator Lawan, Senator
Saraki and his backers, (having seen defeat steering them in the face) staged a walk-out.

Despite the unruly behaviour of the Saraki’s group, the party continued to enjoin them to honour the party’s decision in the general interest of the party. The Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo also
arranged a meeting with Senator Saraki in an effort to achieve truce in the party but the latter was rumoured to have called the bluff of the former, saying he could not be summoned by a ‘mere Commissioner’, in derisive reference to earlier appointment of Professor Osinbajo as Justice
Commissioner in Lagos in the government of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. Saraki, through his media
aide Abiodun Omisore,has since refuted the claim. The party’s NWC even scheduled a meeting with the Saraki’s group that would have had President Buhari in attendance but Saraki and his
backers shunned the parley and went on to expose the party to public opprobrium.

According to Shehu Garba, one of President Buhari’s Spokespersons, “The party had begun a
process and concluded it and some of these actors were part of that process. They knew what had
happened. There was a shadow election of some sort. It is clear that there was nothing accidental
in all of these things that happened. The process I meant, what I meant is that the APC as a party had begun a process for choosing leaders. There was a shadow election in which leaders were
chosen on the platform of the political party and it was complete. There was no doubt about
it.”(The Nation Newspaper June 10, 2015).

Many eminent Nigerians have questioned the emergence of Senator Saraki, describing it as
repugnant, unconventional and alien to parliamentary democracy. Femi Falana,a legal luminary
and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, on his part said: “The refusal of the Saraki and the Dogara
camps to line up behind the candidates picked by the party APC is an affront on party cohesion
and discipline.”

Another constitutional lawyer Professor Itse Sagay (SAN), while advising President Buhari not to
recognise Saraki as the Senate President, had a more scathing words for Senator Saraki: “In my
view, it is not only an act of gross impunity which Senator Saraki has brought from the PDP….It
is an illegal act because there is no way a Senate can be formally inaugurated without all the
members being present– provided they want to be present…it was an attempted coup in the first
arm of government in Nigeria and it is a very serious assault on democracy in this country
(Punch Newspaper, June 10,2015)

To Robert Clark (SAN), “…what transpired in the senate today does not confirm with the rules
of the senate in the election of its principal officers… What Saraki has done today is sell out his party. I can’t see Saraki last for 9 months.” (Nigeriamonitor, June 10, 2015) Former ASUU President and Harvard University Professor of Comparative Literature Biodun Jeyifo also severally in his column in The Nation has condemned the heretical move of Saraki against his party.

However, most of Saraki’s sympathisers are quick to cite the case of Aminu Tambuwal, former
Speaker of the House of Representatives, to justify the sheer indiscipline and rebellion in the
Senate. First, APC is not PDP. The two parties profess to different political ideologies. Second,
events that led to the scenarios of 2011 and 2015 are not the same. Whereas members of
the House of Representatives from the PDP in 2011 wanted Tambuwal ahead of Mulikat Adeola,
Senators-elect (as they then were) on the platform of the APC chose Senator Lawan. In the
House election, Tambuwal polled 252 votes as against Adeola’s 92 votes. During this period, ACN members were 77, ANPP 50 and other smaller parties like APGA, LP (two parties which
were always in cahoots with the PDP) 10. If all the non-PDP members had abstained from the
election, Tambuwal would still have polled 125 to defeat Mulikat Adeola.

Clearly, not less than 125 PDP members in the House wanted Tambuwal to lead them.Tambuwal was favoured by the majority of the PDP members:the same way majority of the Senators from the APC favoured Senator Lawan during the mock election where 33 of them cast their votes for him. Saraki is not popular among the majority of the APC Senators in the Senate and this should be the moral question Saraki and his backers should contend with. While Tambuwal did not reject the candidates of the PDP for the position of the Majority Leader and other principal officers, Saraki, with the imprimatur of some interlopers, spat his party by appointing other principal officers different from what the party wanted. Given the horse-trading that characterised the emergence of Saraki and a PDP Senator Ike Ikweremadu as a Deputy Senate President, It is tempting to conclude that Saraki is on the mission to bring back the PDP (that the Nigerians rejected at the polls) to power and limelight.

At this juncture in our nation’s history, this is not the appropriate time for Senator Saraki to hold the position of a Senate President. Saraki is enmeshed with corruption cases. Bukola Saraki is being investigated for his role in the collapse of the defunct Societe Generale Bank and his
tenure as the Governor of Kwara State (2003-2011). Saraki has against him cases bordering on
conspiracy, forgery and stealing. He is said to have used fronts to siphon the sum of N6billion
from the accounts of Joy Petroleum domiciled in Intercontinental Bank Plc (now Access Bank).

While presiding over Kwara State as Governor, he is also alleged to have used the state’s
assets as guarantee to secure a loan of N21billion for the use of private company. Saraki is
known for his penchant for tying the hands of prosecutor by unleashing court injunctions on
them. At every opportunity, he rushes to seek court injunctions to bar Nigeria Police and other
agencies of government from investigating, arresting or prosecuting him. One of the court cases
he has instituted is that of FHC/ABJ/CS/131/12 pending before the Federal High Court in Abuja
after a coordinating court in Lagos has rejected a similar relief he sought there. Saraki, who was first taken to court by the EFCC in 2011,has not been able to present a strong legal representation to exonerate him in court rather he has been playing cache-cache by seeking injunctions now and again.

I am of the opinion that Saraki should first of all strive to clear his name of graft allegations
before he seeks to hold a position as high as that of a Senate President, a number three position in the political hierarchy in the land. Most Nigerians, like me, voted for President Buhari and his party the APC on the General’s avowal of zero tolerance to corruption and the manifestoes of the APC to fight graft and clean the Augean stables. The hoopla that followed the appointment of former Bayelsa State Governor Timipre Sylva as Chairman of Buhari’s Inauguration Committee is still fresh in my memory. National Chairman of the Labour Party Abdulkadir Abdulsalam, said (in the Guardian Newspaper of May 1, 2015) that President Buhari might fail in his crusade to tackle corruption in the country because of the people he has surrounded himself with… ‘Imagine, the man he chose to lead his transition (sic) team, former Governor Timipre Sylva of Bayelsa State appeared in court only yesterday to answer to corruption charges. This is a minus for a man who wants to fight corruption…’(italics mine).

Saraki should not be used to blackmail President Buhari and his party to rid the country of
corruption. Some of the political office holders of yesteryears who have been indicted of
either dipping their hands in the till of the country or have character issues are currently in the Senate and it will be morally inappropriate to appoint a Saraki, who is in the same league with them, to supervise the same Senate.

Since his joining of the APC in 2013, Mr Saraki has been accorded adequate regards that befit
his status. The party has allowed him to control the political structure in Kwara State. It would be recalled that it was as a result of pre-eminence the party gave to him that made Dele
Belgore (SAN), who was the governorship candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria in 2011, to
dump the APC for the PDP. Belgore, (who was also the boss of former Lagos Governor Raji
Fashola in the law Firm of Sofunde, Osakwe, Ogundipe and Belgore), was for many years the
face of the opposition in Kwara State. Saraki should think less of his personal ambition but as a leader think more of his political lieutenants. If he carries on as if, in local parlance, there is no lele, his senate leadership is heading for monumental failure. Only political naivety will make a Senate President believes that he can succeed in a legislative house full of rancour, division and above all absence of support of his political party and the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the country. The statement of President’s Buhari spokesperson is a pointer to the fact that Mr Buhari is miffed with the way Senator Saraki rubbed mud in the face of the party. Saraki and his backers should shed the toga of war and embrace reconciliation as begun by the party. Politics is about give-and-take.

I want to see Mr Saraki in the mould of Senator Olorunimbe Mamora of Lagos State. Mamora, a
former Financial Secretary of the University of Ife’s Students’ Union in 1977, a medical Doctor
of repute, Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly(1999-2003),two-time Senator from Lagos
East and an encyclopedia of legislative procedures, was asked by his party to jettison his
ambition of returning to the Senate in 2011. Although the decision of the party was a painful one
to him, a thorough-bred party man Mamora took the setback in his stride and did not rock the
boat of his party. Today, the same Mamora has regained his prominence in Lagos, nay, national
politics. He was a member of the Buhari Campaign Organisation in the 2015 election and he is
likely to become a Minister when the cabinet is set up.

Saraki should apologise to his party for his sheer misconduct and the way he has brought her to
public ridicule; beat an immediate and permanent retreat and allow peace to reign in the party. It will not do him or any Sarakian any good if the party beats him to his own game by giving her
support to another political group in Kwara State to rival Saraki’s hitherto political dynasty.

It would not be good if someone like Dele Belgore (SAN) is appointed a Minister to represent
Kwara State. A minister has the capacity to impact positively on the state than a Senate President, who has no statutory power to control his budget, has no power to recruit into the
public service and maintains frosty relationship with his party and President of the country. Senator Saraki should show statesmanship and display camaraderie spirit now that the
centre can still hold.

PoliticsYoruba Youth Alliance Supports Buhari/osinbajo by integralng(op): 10:14am On Mar 21, 2015
“Every generation must, out of relative obscurity, discover its mission, fulfill it or betray it.”

-Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth.

The Yoruba Youth Alliance (YYA), which comprises different groups formed by professionals, former students’ union leaders, youth/labour rights activists, entrepreneurs, wishes to state her position with regard to the 2015 Presidential Elections.

Having examined the projects the Government of Goodluck Jonathan has undertaken in the southwest, we are tempted to conclude that President Jonathan has nothing but contempt for our region. The latter-day construction of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway is a gimmick to score a political point and appease the people of the southwest to curry their support for 2015 elections. It is ridiculous that President Jonathan would need to wait until the eleventh hour before he could order for palliatives on the Lagos-Ibadan Road. It is more ridiculous to learn that the Government of Lagos State which has been magnanimous enough to cover the ‘unclothedness’ of the federal government pertaining to the deplorable conditions of its roads is being owed about 50billion Naira. One can imagine how hellish life would have been for the people of Lagos if the Government of Lagos State has not intervened. From Lagos to Ogun;from Ogun to Oyo;from Oyo to Osun,Ekiti and Ondo,the story is the same:it is litany of deplorable federal projects.

In another vein, President Jonathan has failed to create jobs and protect lives and property of the citizens of this country. It is disheartening that the government through a third party falsely obtained money from unemployed graduates in the name of employing them in the Nigerian Immigration Service. In spite of the uproar the recruitment exercise generated, Mr. President does not seem perturbed punishing all the officials that were culpable in the racket and untimely death of promising Nigerian citizens. Mr. Abba Moro, the Minister of Interior who supervised the sham recruitment, still holds his cabinet position.

Similarly, the Sure-P/ FERMA Project which Mr. President has been touting as his major achievement in the southwest region is also a massive deceit. It is sad to note that after about one year when each applicant was asked to cough-out about 30,000 Naira to obtain uniform and application form, no employment letter has been issued to anyone: our youths only loiter around 7Up area (the Sure-P office in Lagos) every day. It is pathetic that the government of Nigeria under the headship of Mr. Jonathan would subject our youths to degrading conditions under the pretense that they are offering them employments.

To cap it, under the current government, more than 200 secondary school students from Chibok have been kidnapped and the military is confused and clueless on the strategy to adopt to retrieve the girls from Boko Haram insurgents who have declared part of the country as their Caliphate.



Considering the abysmal performance of President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, we in the Yoruba Youth Alliance have resolved that supporting his re-election will further plunge the country into abyss. It therefore defers logic to hear that factions of the Afenifere and the Yoruba Council of Elders could lend their support to the President’s re-election bid. We regard the endorsement as self-serving and repugnant. However, having identified the personae behind the endorsement, we are unruffled; because the ‘endorsers’ are spent politicians with little or no electoral value. An average Yoruba is aware that they are political jobbers. We can beat our chest that none of these characters can deliver his polling unit to the President because an average Yoruba man/woman is aware that they are

Generals with no battalions. Is it a coincidence that most (if not all) of the characters behind the shameful endorsement are conferees of the last jamboree (National Conference) where they were paid huge amount of millions from the federal treasury to carry out the functions of the National Assembly? It is a rarity for a freeborn Yoruba to campaign openly for President Jonathan’s re-election, except those who have benefitted substantially from his largesse, those with shady pasts and shaky means of livelihood, who have no business venturing into politics in healthy climes.

Conversely, we have perused the manifestoes of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and can confirm that the party has the capacity to restore sanity, prosperity, progress to the country. To this end, we have adopted the candidacy of General Muhammadu Buhari/Professor Yemi Osinbanjo of the APC. We consider this ticket as the best combination to salvage this country.

Since the emergence of General Buhari and Professor Osinbajo (a son of the ‘soil’ and husband to Chief Obafemi Awolowo’s grand-daughter), we in the Yoruba Youth Alliance have been in the field campaigning vigorously for Buhari/Osinbajo Presidency and the feedback we are getting is very encouraging. We have noticed that many Yoruba people have embraced the Buhari/Osinbajo candidacy as a pan-Nigerian project. We are certain that more than 85percent of the votes in the South-West will be for Buhari/Osinbajo.

But it is shameful that the self-acclaimed Apostles and Scions of Chief Awolowo could not embrace a presidential ticket that has a worthy Yoruba son like Osinbajo on it, a Chief Awolowo’s Son-in-Law for that matter! Where then is their Awoism?

As youth, we believe we will be spending most of our precious lives in the future while these ‘elders’ shall have permanently quit the stage. Therefore, that future and now are very dear to us because any decision taken on our behalf today will definitely affect us later either directly or by implication; either adversely or positively. This publication is not just a rejoinder to their shameful exercise but a generational resentment to the so-called Yoruba elders who are willing to sell our collective future for a pot of porridge. The Yoruba Youth Alliance uses this medium to appeal to the entire South-West Youth to disregard that selfish call by the ‘elders’ as such a call only represents their interest and those of their immediate families.

While everyone is free to support any candidate of his or her choice,it is uncharitable and 'unkomradic' for anyone to bring the name of the Supreme Comradium(Kegites Club International)into political discourse.I ill try as much as possible not to use the kegites' lingo in my comment.
The Kegites Club International is a socio-cultural organisation for the promotion of African culture,values,ethos...(so the organisation does not dabble into politics) with presence/brances in virtually all the public higher institutions of learning in Nigeria.The Ilya du TAWINJI:Institute of Management and Technology Enugu (which the Op claims he represents)is one out of the many Ilyasis(branches) of the club...Apart from this branch,there are about 9 other branches of the Club in Enugu alone...The Head of the Club in any branch is the Chief and he is ably supported by other officers(Grand Lords) like AB Elder,AB Parrot,AB Feda etc.The Head of the Club in Nigeria/Overseas is the Chief(AB WORLD) of the World Headquarters(Obafemi Awolowo University,Ile-Ife).After the AB world is the AB National(University of Ibadan)...I have taken my time to explain the above so that non-member readers on this forum will appreciate the fact that the Club is an organised Club...
In the matter that bothers on the General running of the Club,the Council of Chiefs(which includes the current and all past Chiefs of the Club) will meet and decide on it...
In relation to the alleged Endorsement of President Jonathan by the Kegites Club International,I know this is not true.It may be correct that some persons who are supporters of Jonathan might be using the good name and wide presence of the Club to campaign for their candidate...It may also be correct that the Chief of the Ilya du Tawinji might have used his position as the Head of the Club in his school to drum-up support for Jonathan.However,it must be stated that at no time did the Council of Chiefs of the Kegites Club International sit to endorse the candidacy of any presidential candidate.I am a staunch supporter of GMB and I co-ordinate a support group campaigning for him.We have more than 200 Kegites Chiefs(including about 4 or 5 past WORLD Headquarters CHIEF and 7 National Headquarters Chief).Inspite our strong support for GMB and connection to the Kegites Club,we have never used the platform of the club to campaign for GMB because we know it is against the constitution and interest of the party .
To stop the unethical action of the OP and his group, I will ensure I bring this situation to the attention of other Chiefs of the Club,particularly the AB Chief World(who is the No1 Citizen of the club in Nigeria and Overseas) so that appropriate sanctions can be meted out to the erring members.

PoliticsRe: ”APC To Release Scandalous Documentary Against President Jonathan" FFK by integralng: 7:29am On Mar 20, 2015
corneli83:
Femi Fani Kayode, in a new statement released today, has cried out that the APC has hired 3 well known international spin doctors from two western countries and budgeted $2million to produce a blockbuster documentary that slanders President Jonathan and his government. And that they are planning to release the documentary 3 days to the elections.

Read his press release below:

There are three issues that we wish to bring to the attention of the Nigerian Public today, all reflecting the sheer desperation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to get power.

• One:

It has been brought to our attention by members of the covert and special operations unit of this Directorate that certain unpatriotic steps are being taken by the opposition in an attempt to discredit not just the President, but also his government and indeed our entire country.
As we are addressing you, a scurrilous and utterly baseless documentary and video has been commissioned and compiled by them. It is titled ‘’Nigerians…What Is Going On’’. In the documentary the opposition has listed some areas which they claim reflect the
corrupt nature of the Nigerian people, the nature of the President and the nature of the government that he is heading.

All manner of lies, deceit, fabrication, slander, falsehood and misrepresentation of the basic facts are in thedocumentary. The whole thing is simply an attempt to denigrate the Nigerian people and bring is into disrepute and opprobrium before the International community.

Two million dollars was budgeted for this irresponsible and shameful project and the services of no less than three specialists and well known international spin doctors from two western countries were procured.

These specialists are now in Nigeria to put finishing touches to their project. The whole idea is to perfect the work and then release it to the international television networks and the Nigerian public three days before the elections. I will not go into detail about the contents now but some of the subheadings are as follows:

*$15 million US Private Jet Arms Scandal
*N5 trillion stolen under Jonathan
*N21 billion Pension funds embezzled
*N10 billion private jet scandal.
*N1.6 trillion oil subsidy scandal, and much more.

These are the obvious ones we can talk about here. They have targeted the oil and gas sector in a particularly brutal and shameless manner and they seek to tarnish the name and image of Mr. President and those that run that sector with sleaze, dirty lies, disinformation and unsubstantiated allegations.

Every single heading that we have just listed, plus all the others that we have refused to list here, are not backed up with anything tangible and are devoid of truth and substance. Their foundation are nothing but lies, deceit, falsehood and malevolence and the whole enterprise was put together simply to demonise the individuals concerned, to demonisethe government, to demonise Nigeria and to make the Nigerian people look like a nation of hardened criminals.

The objective of the planned documentary is to incite the people, to destabilise the country and to bring the President into utter disrepute. In order to achieve, these effectively consistent personal attacks will be launched on key government officials.

This documentary, which we consider to be very dangerous, is full of false and irresponsible postulations about what is going on in this country and if it is released in its present form it is capable of setting Nigeria on fire.

We are letting the Nigerian people know about this in good time in order to pre-empt it and we want the opposition to be fully aware of the fact that we know what they are doing, what they are planning, when they were planning it and who is involved. We also know the amount budgeted for this project, who is disbursing the money and what their real intentions are.

We also want them to be fully aware of the fact that even if General Muhammadu Buhari, Bola Tinubu, Rotimi Amaechi or any of them are in their toilets, in their bedrooms, in their covens or anywhere else they may choose to hide and hold their secret meetings, we know what they are doing.

This document was passed on to us by a loyal and patriotic Nigerian who is working with them and who is a key officer in one of their most sensitive and secret cells and covert intelligence units.

This individual was so disgusted at the level of fabrication and propaganda that they were indulging in that he felt that it was important to share the information with us. We commend the courage and patriotism of this person and we assure him of his safety. He made this vital information available to us and we commend him greatly for it.

Finally we want to say that such an irresponsible course will not achieve the objective for which it was set. This government, this country and our dear President will not be destabilised and distracted and Nigeria will not be set on fire.

•TWO:

Again, gentlemen of the media, our attention had been drawn to the existence of an illegal Radio station called ‘’APC RADIO’’ or ‘’RADIO CHANJI’’. This radio station has been broadcasting falsehood, propaganda and inciting comments periodically over the last few days and since inception.

We seize this opportunity to call on the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) to set its house in order while ensuring that its rules are followed. We call on them to use all means available to stop this illegal radio station from operating and if necessary to block its illegal transmissions.

The person that is heading this operation is Ambassador Yusuf Mamman, an APC leader and stalwart who has much experience in the world of special ops and disinformation and who has been given millions of dollars to start this illegal radio station.

The objective of the radio station is to serve as a propaganda tool to fight the government after they lose the elections on March 28th. The brain behind the operation is the former governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi who equally founded Radio Kudirat during the days of NADECO when the government of General Sani Abacha was being fought by a number of people in Nigeria.

The opposition know that they would lose the election and after this happens it is their intention to begin to use this illegal Radio Station to incite Nigerians against the government. They seek to create mayhem and cause panic and create a toxic and bellicose atmosphere in which their supporters will be encouraged to slaughter and kill innocent Nigerians whilstthe country burns.

They also intend to use the radio station to incite the armed forces to mutiny. They intend to create a major division and utter chaos within the Nigerian state, using religion and ethnicity, and they will take that opportunity to either call for full blown military intervention or the establishment of an Interim National Government.

It is through the auspices of this illegal Radio Station that they intend to announce members of their planned shadow and parallel government, to nominate their ministers and to then create major crisis in our country.

The truth of the matter is that this will not work. However it is important for the security agencies to arrest Yusuf Mamman and question Kayode Fayemi, Bola Tinubu, Rotimi Amaechi and the APC Presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari himself on the operation and illicit and dangerous agenda of this illegal Radio Station.

We will not sit back and watch them achieve their objectives. We will not allow them to destabilise Nigeria and we will not allow them to create a parallel government after they lose the elections.

•THREE:

Our sources within the Buhari and APC camp have also revealed to us that Gen Muhammadu Buhari is in a quandary about what to do about the very serious allegations that have been made against Bola Tinubu when it comes to his tenure as Governor of Lagos state and thereafter.

Buhari is said to be overwhelmed by the staggering allegations and compelling evidence that have been documented and exposed in the last few weeks about Tinubu and his closest associates.

Our sources have revealed that Gen. Buhari has resolved that in the event of his winning the Presidential election, he will issue an ultimatum to Bola Tinubu.

The ultimatum will be that either Tinubu would forfeit and give up 50 per cent of the money, property and the illicit gains that he has fleeced and garnered from Lagos state over the last 16 years or he would face the full wrath of the law and be prosecuted for corruption.

It is clear from this that all is not well in the APC’s camp and that their de facto leader, Bola Tinubu and their presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, are on a collision course. These two people and their party simply cannot be trusted with the future of Nigeria.

When did the senator become God's mouth piece? Hypocrisy of the highest order from the senator. So man of God shouldn't participate in government because he lives in Heaven and he is not affected by the actions of the government right?

Cc: Seun, Obinoscopy, Lalasticlala
Smart Adeyemi is afraid that he is going to be booted out from the senate this time around.His party's rank in Kogi is depleted so the imminent defeat is scaring him in the face. His current stance on GMB is a direct insult to the Senate President David Mark who,like GMB,is a retired General. Finally,on his claim that his party PDP is going to win with landslide,the reality in the country points to the contrary and his party National Chairman has confessed that the PDP can't win(if at all they will win)with landslide...Smart Adeyemi can continue to show his buffonery
