There are many ibos whose fathers are Yoruba does that make them more of Yoruba..

They have dual citizenship.. Kwara is a SW and yoruba state...
Restrict Ur self to only what U know.Kwara,Niger,Kogi,Benue,Plateau and Nassarawa make up d 6 states in d north central while Lagos,Ekiti,Ogun,Oyo,Osun and Ondo make up d 6 states in d south west.
If Kwara is Yoruba land,why is there an 'Emir' in Kwara and no 'Oba'?

His father Olusola always made it clear that they are not Yorubas so who are we to decide their tribe for them?

I heard he was elected unopposed so who emerged as deputy?
Yes, Saraki emerged unopposed meaning that Lawan stepped down..which further means that APC in a deft move reconciled the warring parties and gave it's support to Saraki..who with PDP's endorsement and his popularity with a significant number of APC senators would have won anyway. APC has once again shown superior political engineering in internal crises management. Let's hope the Nigerian masses get to enjoy the dividends of the new 'change'

51 apc senators absent. Only 57 present voted saraki. This shows dat saraki arm twisted tinubu. Absent or not. Saraki is now senate president. Pay back time for what acn did in tambuwal case.
exactly. And some supporters are here shouting that APC played PDP. I wouldn't be surprised if Lai Mohammed comes later today to say bad about the election

Kwara is northcentral not SW.

Kwara State (Yoruba: Ìpínlẹ̀ Kwárà) is in Western Nigeria. Its capital is Ilorin. The primary ethnic group of Kwara State is Yoruba, with significant Nupe, Bariba Hausa minorities.

Why say PDP has gotten what she wanted!

Senator Ahmed Lawan(Borno), who emerged
the consensus candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, was not nominated.

Bukola Saraki was the only nominated candidate on the floor. APC has done her home work and has avoid loop holes for PDP to sneek in.

PDP is still and will remain opposition till 2019 when we the electorate will decide next again.

It only we the electorate that determine the Umbrella or Broom.

Long live Nigeria

Why stand logic on its head.

This election is fraud..!!! They have postponed the elections only for 51 of them (sen) to go ahead and elect saraki unopposed. Where are the likes of dogara, akume and lawal? Be informed that they are not even in the assembly complex as at time of the so call elections. Shame on them...!!! Its a DPD factor anyway. embarassed undecided shocked

Who postponed the election? APC or Tinubu? Is APC and Tinubu the owner of the National Assembly or Nigeria? please respect yourself here. No one has the right to postpone any elections at the National Assembly unless for serious proven security reasons, if APC senators are absent because they listened to Tinubu, it's their loss bro. Sorry.

No .... Goodman can't turns bad ova nyt why the sudden change in decision ? sm cabals at work . I heard some of the law makers were locked out of the house . how can we explain dat ? Why do they suddenly began to dance to the tune of PDP law makers clamouring for Saraki in Lawan's stead ?
If 57 senators elected Saraki,that means that d remaining number is 51,if U remove d vote of Saraki himself.
We means there's no way his opponent could have won even if they were all present.

Bukola is a traitor. He has just decamped back to PDP

Don't worry he will pay for it. He mobilized opposition against his party and presented a candidate from the other side to be his deputy. He will pay when the time comes. He has his eyes on 2019

if he was opposed, it would have been assumed that , he was chosen by PDP, But as its stands now he still a concensus candidate and no body can claim he was made SP by them.

congrats Sai Bukky.....

Good. Soak the picture for water, e go turn soup, stew, rice, cash, cars and houses for you. Enjoy.

This is how low and pathetic you life has gotten, to gloat over a mere picture is the height of deranged poverty which you are bestowed with. God help you sir.
