The oba of Benin is for d Binis alone.The Binis are said to have originated from yoruba land.
There many tribes in Edo State who are not under d rulership of d oba,eg d Ishans from where Tony Anenih comes from.
So the Binis are Yorubas since they have an Oba?

Senator Bukola Saraki (APC-Kwara Central) has been elected unopposed as President of 8th Senate by 57 of 108 senators, with 51 senators, including Senator Ahmed Lawan, absent.

The other senators were at the International Conference Centre, meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, at the time Saraki was declared President.

This is exactly the plan of APC to deceive PDP to believe that Lawani is their preferred candidate. Bukola Saraki is the number 1 candidate of Tinubu & APC for the position of the senate president. I don"t believe that PDP are so dull & clueless (Anyway we know them to be) to have fell directly into the plan of APC to make Saraki the 8th Nass Senate President. Chai!!!!! This Tanoids are soooo dull and clueless. Congrats to Bukola Saraki, congrate to APC & congrats to Nigerians

It is now crystal clear that PDP is now in control of NASS.
Did you guys observe that no APC SENATOR from the Sw state was present .
Against all odds. BURUJI KASHAMU SHOWS UP .
PDP Governors where even on ground while there apc counterparts are no where to be found.
Most Apc senators were at conference centre waiting for Buhari while saraki and his loyalists with the 49 PDP members went ahead with the vote.
APC JUST SHUT ITSELF IN THE LEG .
Ekweremadu no the Deputy senate.
PDP all the way .

The House is more united now. Check tins dis way, Saraki won unopposed abi. Meaning der was no contest at all. Contrary to wat Apc made u guys believe dat dey are having internal crisis. Crisis my foot. Wat APC wants is to finally sideline and relegate PDP to d abyss of Political oblivion. Gbagaun!. Heheheheh. D more you look, d less you see. APC is in control. Fine one from APC.

From wikipedia:

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.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwara_State
my brother, sometimes Wikipedia contains erroneous information. We Nigerians knows fully well that it's a NC state and that's how the federal constitution recognized it, so Wikipedia can't tell us order wise.
This is another example of misleading information
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kainji_Dam
Kainji Dam is a dam across the Niger River in
Niger State of western Nigeria

As for saraki he is from Yoruba ethnic group which constitute majority in the state.

Bukola's father,Olusola Saraki is fulani on his paternal side and yoruba on his maternal side.
That makes them more of Fulanis.

Bukola Saraki has probably less than 5% Fulani blood running his veins. His dad Olusola is more than 80% Yoruba himself, their so called Fulani ancestor is just an unknown chatacter in a deluded Kwaran man's c.ock and bull stories, Sarakis grandmum is again from iseyin in Oyo state, while his own mum is from Owo in Ondo state, his wife toyin is from Lagos state. they remain secretive about their paternal history.

I have seen a lot of bile been thrown the way of Bola Ahmed Tinubu with respect to politics in Nigeria but we all need to understand that we all behave like Tinubu, one way or the other. The only thing i see with this man is Protectionism.

Simply Protecting what he has a Stake in. You all have to be aware that Saraki is PDP through and through and was never part of the formation of APC. Saraki only had a problem with GEJ & not PDP. Saraki only used APC to return to Senate as PDP wld not have nominated him and without Kwara, GMB would have still won the election anyway.

Tinubu is just ensuring that only those who staked into the risk of a new party should be the 1st in line to benefit from it. He is also ensuring that there must always be a Power Block that any other group must come and negotiate with to actualise their own dreams, so, whats his offence, at least we can see how other regions are struggling becos they do not have formidable power blocs.

What a lot of people do not realise is that Tinubu is not a threat to Buhari but wants to ensure that other groups do not hijack or pose a threat to him
Man I respect ur sense of reasoning, you've just spoke my mind!

This is too bad for the hallow chamber, I don't see Saraki lasting long on that seat........I can smell impeachment notice very soon. The Mallams and their allies will fight back, Saraki has no fire to propel the Senate-You can quote me.

Tinubu and ACN did same to PDP, Tambuwal (PDP) was made speaker. was Tambuwal Impeached? Tinubu and APC knew dey would be paid back with d same coin. when dey made Tambuwal Speaker dey said dey outsmart PDP. Saraki has been made Senate President and Dats it.

You are right. The wife is a christian. Some people even say Bukola is a coded christian himself. I'm sick of this Fulani brouhaha jarey.

He's emerged, I wish him best of luck.

Ike Ekeremadu defeated Ali Ndume in a primary election. I'm happy an Igbo Senator got the Deputy Senate President position.

Cluelessness is already creeping into u ppl. Tinubu wants his boys in key positions so they can propagate the progresiver agenda. If he starts loosing key positions to opposition members in same party it means he becomes handicapped and which means the ACN path of APC becomes subdued. This would maker SW members retrace their steps. PDP is the smart ones here. All they want is discord in the APC just as the APC created discord in the PDP. PDP knows they don't have the numbers to be relevant but one thing is sure they are united. For example I can tell you the outcome of this election would go a long way to determine buhari's ministers. Don't forget there is still the ameachi's cacus who still does not want tinubu a Godfather in the party. They would all destroy demslves. Once the fulanis take over then the SW, SE and SS will unite again to take them down. And am yourba so do not think am igbo.


i didn't want to comment here but for ur intelligence.

Good view, exactly what i thought as well.


Good view of the situation.
