APC keep hallucinating. Aduda is PDP, Dariye is in prison, two newly elected candidates cannot vote for now. So simply put APC have active 53 members and PDP 53 active members.

When plenary resumes on September 24th, five of those mentioned who decamped from PDP would be declared non-senators and the two new ones sworn in. Thereafter, APC can test their strength.

APC should just lick their wounds. It is called KARMA. Shey they were praising Tambulwa in 2014? Nntoooor

What are you high on? Why will you be hallucinating in the day time like this? Let the maggot in Saraki's head lead him to declare those seats vacant and you will see what becomes of that house.

The wailers will have no interest in that. The rather revel in his criminal antics to avoid prosecution. By the time he's re-arrested, they'll start wailing about how democracy is been attacked.

APC senators are too slow for my liking. Remove these men and let the heavens fall. Who told you Nigerians are in support of these looters of their common patrimony? Are these not the men who are stealing 13.5mills apart from their normal allowance of 700k from us?

APC senators are too slow for my liking. Remove these usurpers by any means and let the heavens fall. Who told you Nigerians are in support of these looters?

To defeat him will be very easy. Since he represents 3 LGA - Dass/Balewa/Bogoro constituency, all APC needs to do is to field somebody from either Balewa or Dass since he has been denying these LGAs a chance of representation for over 12 years now, play the religious card since he is a Christian in midst of Muslims and I tell you his name will be sorry in the next election.

These three LGAs he represents are Christian dominated that's why he will still win on religious affiliation.

According the the result declared by INEC in Buhari's Constituency, APC got 78% votes and PDP got 21% of the votes.

There are many things you should consider

1) APC candidate is the incumbent...he has represented that constituency since 2011.

2) PDP fielded a political rookie.

3) Buhari's Backyard: This election was conducted right in Buhari's very own constituency. It's like a test to his popularity amongts his brothers and sisters.


Despite all of these, PDP was able to garner 21% of the votes against APC 78%.

In 2019, PDP will not win katsina, but they would gather enough votes to make the totally tally make sense.

nonsensical analysis. What margin did Buhari defeat Goodluck with to become the president of Nigeria? You're here blabbing..

Samuel Ortom, governor of Benue state, says no amount of “torment or persecution” will make him reconsider his defection from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement issued on his behalf by Terver Akase, his chief press secretary, the governor accused the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of being a strike squad of the ruling party.
He also alleged that the federal government had been using the anti-graft agency to “cripple governance in the state.”
“After succumbing to nationwide condemnation of its illegal freezing of Benue State Government accounts, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has resorted to yet another shameful act in its desperation to cripple governance in the state,” the statement read.
“The anti-graft agency’s latest move is the bandying of figures in national dailies claiming that such figures are those of transactions in the accounts owned by the Benue State Government.
“It released figures allegedly withdrawn from the Benue State Government accounts without disclosing the dates of the withdrawals and the period during which they were made.
The commission has also not been able to state accounts into which such monies withdrawn were paid to prove that the funds had been diverted.
“EFCC is contented with publishing the figures without stating how impropriety has been established.
“Are government monies supposed to be kept in the accounts indefinitely without expenditure? Their objective is apparently to give Governor Samuel Ortom and his administration a bad name.
“On this score, it is clear that the EFCC has now become both a strike squad of the APC for torment, and their law court for the trial and conviction of political opponents.”

Ortom's government and propaganda are inseparable. Tell us why the accounts were frozen. Was it not for you and your cronies' illegal withdrawals from those accounts? Senator Akume should be blamed for whatever is happening to us as a result of your misrule and looting. Akume imposed you on the Benue people.

Who would love to keep a mediocre, looter and insensitive candidate like you in their fold? You've made a cheap political propaganda out of the death of Benue people thinking your questionable publicity of the attack will endear you to us after a woeful performance in government where you paraded yourself as a man of God but kept shortchanging the poor state by illegal deductions of local government funds and diversions of bailout funds. Now you're claiming you weren't the one ruling but someone else so you should be returned for you to rule. And I ask, Ortom, where is the guarantee that you will not give us this same alibi after another woeful performance? You can only deceive the gullible not me and as many as I can influence by telling them the truth about your government. I am not a fan of senator Akume but I can't support an epitome of corruption and deception like you. Tell your tales to the undiscerning.

All the allegations Oshiomole made are facts on ground. Ortom knew well that his abysmal performance can't fetch him a 2nd tenure, therefore, capitalized on the herdsmen menace to resale himself to the Benue populace. Ortom is the worst governor traversing Nigeria from Maiduguri to Lagos and Port - Harcourt to Sokoto. Since he became the governor, he's sold off almost all government investments and in return he has established several personal industries using his personal company, "Oracle conglomerate"

Dhugal:
It's really been proven that in order to be a member of APC, one has to lose his brain or at the very least, lower his iq.
2/3 majority of members of a house, a clear and explicit provision,is now subjected to varying forms of twists and gymnastics.
For those of you who genuinely don't know and want to learn,any question that requires a 2/3 majority of a legislature to settle, means 2/3 of the total membership of that house.They all don't have to be there, but once the required threshold is cleared, then the question is carried.
These have all been cleared up by the Supreme Court,for the idiots that are here supporting illegality in the hope things will later be tied up in court. See Peter Obi v Anambra HOA, Ladoja v Oyo HOA.

Nairaland really has gone to the dogs, ignoramuses everywhere,kids and adults with the iq of a jellyfish populating the space.
If only there were mods up to the task........

You insult people here but display the highest level of ignorance and behave as if you've a Phd in illogicality. Your thinking isn't up to that of a child in the kindergarten class. How can you ever conceive that All members of the house will sit before their 2/3 will be counted for an impeachment of a senate president? In their normal legislative plenaries, is it always all that sit?

2odd:
No you are the illogical one here 2/3 of the entire house ,have to vote for the senate president removal , 80 can be present
I can see that you clearly didn't read the two examples ,not all members were present when Evan ENWEREM and CHUBA OKADIGBO were impeached but more than 2/3 of the entire house voted for their removal .

Buhari is too slow for my liking, OBJ would've done away with your thieving senate president that you are supporting just because of political, tribal or sentimental inclination. A sitting is a sitting Provided a quorum is formed. APC has the number any day to form a quorum all they need is the will power to do it and the wailers will pick up from there. No other interpretation of this. Sagay has discovered something innovative that looks like a loophole in the constitution.

Juliusmalema:
Trash

How?

2odd:
Simple question,was it the whole nigeria that voted for Buhari ??,
Pls go and read section 50 of the nigerian Constitution

You simply refuse to be logical? It's highly improbable that an entire 109 senators will be at a sitting. Example, One is in jail right now, 2 seats are vacant as a result of death, on a good day, some may go abroad for official functions. Now, a decision made by those behind can't be legal because because it's not the entire 109 senators that took the decision. Is that your thinking? Guy get some sense.

that's illegal sitting
why do apc support illegality?
an av apc supporter is an extremist and a potential terrorist

saraki is not going anywhere and will be reelected in 2019

What was the sitting of 57 senators to elect thief Saraki the senate president called. Illegal sitting? Answer this sir and I will explain to you the composition of a sitting that can oust the thief and chief bribe giver

nonsense stop disgracing your IQ
Oshiomole is a rat to saraki.

if Saraki can pocket Tinubu who's the oily face scallywag Oshiomole

kiss the truth

It's unfortunate Sagay has opened their eyes to be watchful so as to avoid a sitting that may be made up of only APC senators. Just wait and see. In this narrative, you're the one disgracing your intellect and not me.

Rubbish
who listen to that kpomo bass mouth cigar abi siGAY
Nonsense!

He'll be listened to this time around. What he's averred is simply innovative and flawless. If it didn't require the entire house to elect Saraki as the president, what makes you think it requires the entire senate to impeach him. This is what Sagay is saying in simple terms. Let SANs counter him on this and not laymen like you.

ehinmowo:
We jst hv lettered illiterate all over. Is Sagay a judicial institution in Nigeria? What benign interpretation are u talking abt? Y dnt u say dt Buhari cn be removed in d same Sagay gave dt deluded interpretation?

the senate President's impeachment is easier than that of the president of the country. In the former, it can be initiated and concluded in a sitting while the later requires a series of notification and 'transmission' of letters/notices before it can be done in more than one sitting which means if a particular number that formed a quorum initiated the idea, those absent in that sitting must make it to the next sitting where a final impeachment motion is to be voted for or against. This is the bare fact my friend.

@OP, you've further substantiated Sagay's innovative interpretation of the senate President's removal. Was it the entire senate members that were required for him to be made a senate president? If no is your answer, what makes you think senate sittings are held with all senators available in the chamber? It's the number present in a sitting that there decision matters and not that of those absent. Sagay is indeed, a professor of law. Let SANs dispute his averment and not a lay man like you.

Let's wait and see. Sagay has interpreted the senate President's removal in an innovative way that doesn't need any other judicial interpretation and you are here beating your chest that you cannot be removed. You will surely fall and go to jail, one person you've consistently bribed and bought over to use against the government of the day has fallen, your fall will be deadlier than his.

If PDP senators and a few APC senators sat and made Saraki the senate president, why can't those who form a quorum and are seated impeach him. Sagay is indeed a professor of law. These are salient issues in the constitution. There is no way every senator will attend senate meetings consistently. Now assuming 60 or less made it to the senate on a particular day and decide to impeach the thieving buffon, won't that work because the other members aren't around? The same way he was made is how he will be impeached.

Look at this thief supporting another thief. Anyway, they're Aves of same plummet.

LIFEisSIMPLE:
It took me a while to come to the conclusion, that Bukola saraki is the smartest Nigerian alive. If only he will use this God given wisdom for the good of Nigeria, then we have a gem on our hand. But if he chooses the dark route, then we would still find it hard to stop him, given that he has the ability to outwit us all.

Bukola Saraki is an acedemic case study that show cases political brilliance among the black race

it is pathetic that we Nigerians celebrate criminals on and offline. Saraki has been bribing judges, and every public officer that has one thing or the other to reveal who he is. You think the sudden twist of his case at the cct was for naught? Saraki bought the dismissed DSS boss with his ill gotten wealth that sank deep into his head to the point he wasn't taking instructions from his principal (the president). Buhari is the only one Saraki is smarter than. Not me and many other Nigerians.

They must be prosecuted

Saraki has finally nailed himself. He will go whether you his e-warriors like it or not.

How come a 25 year wedded to a retired civil servant? Strange.

@OP the number that served the impeachment notice was 12 and not 8 as you've alleged. The APC number is increasing by the day. Ortom should bring out the money he's stolen from local governments and oil the palms of the assembly members else he'll be in for trouble.

You're lucky, it's not Obasanjo.

Ortom is only been crafty after understanding that the Benue populace abhore APC, as such seeking reelection on her platform can't be realistic. He's decided to decamp in a subtle manner where he finds it difficult to tell the public what APC has leveled against him to give him a "red card"

In the national assembly nko? For the crafty Saraki will not be willing to reveal to the public how much he spent before occupying that seat.

Shameless Fayose. They did worse than this to Fayemi. In no distant time, the law of Karma has caught up with him and he's complaining as if he's never done or heard of anything like what is happening to him when in actual sense, he was the architect of all that happened to Fayemi
