I was even amazed at most people saying Kwarans are not yoruba I can't imagine kwara people reading this and they won't laugh at you guys. Back to the matter it is the the zoning of the political sphere that made kwara state to fall under North Central but ethnically and historically Kwara belong to the Yoruba lineage and nothing can never ever change that not even the geo-political zone. This is a fact, I have kwarans as colleagues, even as inlaws and I believe we all have kwara indigenes around us you just walk up to anyone of them I tell them they are not from Yoruba heritage lolzz! I bet you won't like the kind of reply they will give to you immediately just because they hate it when people disassociate them from Yoruba Kingdom. This is a fact just ask any kwarans around you and you will know how far lolzz!

Saraki means "important" in Yoruba

Does the name BUKOLA sound fulani or hausa to you? dullard

jayfolarin:
Just when hopes of a better nigeria was at its peak, the unforeseen happens! The party that has brought nigeria to its knees rules the upper and lower chamber again via proxy!

The druglords, looters, child-molesters parading as leaders and elder statesmen may just have shielded themselves from the whips of Buhari's anti-corruption lashes as a result of this election.

Good God!! How did we get ourselves right back into this mess!!!! I mean, even if EFCC finally indicts saraki, the vice-president is a PDP!!!

It is finished!

MotherConfessor:
Everyone is hailing the move calling it a master stroke, deep down this dude put himself above his party,this is part of the Nigerian problem, politicians always thinking about "self" and nothing more!

#betrayal
#indisipline
#self above everything

agarawu23:
nice one


But I still don't understand why PDP are jubilating over saraki's victory

oyogunle:
This matter no clear o. Buhari is presently having a meeting with all APC senators and non of them was at the National Assembly as at the time of the inauguration. Saraki won as "un-opposed" cos no APC member was in the house.

kaybams1:
The truth is APC actually showed uncommon political maturity. They realised they made a miscalculation by conducting a primary for the senate seat- an act that led to uprising and PDP wanted taking advantage of. They saw that all PDP just wants more than anything isn't the senate seat, but spoiling the goodwill and reputation of APC. The chess players in APC saw this and decided to outsmart their opponents. They know in politics, reputation and public perception is everything. They saw that the dent in their name will be higher if Lawan is forcefully inaugurated. So they played the fool and made a hard decision of begging every Ahmed Lawan supporters to sheath their sword and allow Saraki be the Senate president just to send a message that APC is truly a democratic party that elevates peace over any other thing. Its the opposite message PDP wanted the public to see so that they can use it as their political campaign in the future. At the end, it was a checkmate - APC won again.

Bros,

My sentiments exactly.

1. Personally I don't jump into conclusions, just because someone made a statements. Much still when we've not verified with facts.
2. A key thrust of Buhari's wishlist to be discussed with G7 leaders is security. It makes sense that Shetima be on the entourage, to give a vivid account of events, since he predated Buhari in the history of current engagement with Boko Haram and will come in handy in discussion on security.
3. The president has the perogative of choice of the members of the team in his delegation
4. The military command center has been relocated to Maiduguri, aside from offering condolences, there is little for Shetima to do in Maiduguri and his absence for a day or two is not out of place.
5. I think Ben Bruce is showing some naivity, diplomatic, strategic and politically. Obviously this is not comparable to Jonathan's shoki dance in Kano when Chibok girls were kidnapped.........at least Buhjari and Shetima are doing something about the situation..........

Ben Bruce should STFU.......

BRAINLESS PRESIDENT FUCKEN GENERAL

People like this just don't get it that the Buhari government hasn't been installed to run another stereotype government that comes in to patch things up here and there but most things left untouched, undone or in a worse state like the PDP has done for the past 16 years. A horrific cycle of vision-less leadership. No, the Buhari government has been installed by we patriotic Nigerians for a complete overhaul of the old ineffective system of governance and rebuilding of a new better functioning system. We don't want a quick fix that gives us a false perception of progress in the short run but gets us nowhere in the long run. Rather we want a permanent solution that will stand the test of time and usher Nigeria to a better future. We are tired of the typical failed PDP schemes and vision 2020 projects that are nothing but abject myths that never leaves anything meaningful done.

This is not another PDP-to-PDP government transition, but a new government party entirely. So realistically, it could take about six months for Buhari's government to get their feet on the ground; but the good news is once the feet is down eventually and Buhari's government will surely run and once it starts running, I expect wonderful things will happen in Nigeria and to Nigeria and Nigerians. The Buhari government just has no other choice but to perform.

LordVarys:
Atiku Abubakar was the most prepared of all the Presidential Candidates, Buhari just rode on the crest of Nigeria's desperate desire for change

ogundeleai:
Thank God you escape the harmmer.. What citizen of ekiti should realise is that meaningful development migth elude the state in the live of this present administration.. In the last 6months am not sure whether the governor can point to concrete development and the excuse will be hinge on distraction from the so called impeachment.. I won't be suprise now if same govt change his gear toward FG for the remaining three and half year that Abuja is not helping him to develop the state.. Good enough the governor is nursing no second term ambition and the earlier the citizens of his state realise this the better.

mariamjane:
Don't mind him! Apologists for GEJ have fertile imaginations. If not, how could few individuals rob 180 million Nigerians blind for six years?

Mortiple:
It beats my imagination that FFK believes such a joke! Well, I am not surprised, it's all about politics.

aresa:
Slowly regaining our long lost glory..


Go VP...

omokab:
is good as you answer him but if you look at it critically most of the people on nairaland that type all this rubbish are under 20 and majority of them does not understand simple english,that is why they will just rush to comment on any things that have something to do with opposition. If he has read with care and simple understanding he must have known that boko used that system to draw people nearer before detonated the bomb.

fx45:
What exactly is wrong with Yeriba people? Just how low do you people intend to stoop in Ur efforts to defend Buhari? A Fulani Islamic fundamentalist who doesn't give a hoot whether you exist.

The same 'Sai Buhari' was their chant in 2011 when they were slaughtering innocent Youth Corpers including your own brothers and sisters. You people seem to have forgotten so soon. I think it's time you guys did some serious soul searching and learn to condemn evil for what it is.

teeowl:
He used it to lure people and then he did the act...

LMAyedun:
Buhari should resign.

Misterdhee1:
Nigerians sha. A man that has just resumed work on Monday is expected to do all this within 24 hours oo. This is a presidential position not a class captain role Mr OP. Everything is done with procedures.

Akosbaba:
They say the patient dog eats the fattest bone or something like that. Everyone is expecting a pro active style of governance from a 72 year old just because he was a former general. Has anyone of you thought that this man is probably wiser than the lot of you and has his own way of doing things . I just hope these so called supporters don't overburden GMB by always expecting at every minute of the day because if you truly believed in him when casting your vote then you should calm down and watch things unfold.
