With cane or what? Minority Party Beat APC to Produce Speaker, is that what you mean?

zik4ever:
We should have at least one competent person from each zone so its appropriate to ask where. There is zoning and we cant deny it else Buhari should have run with a Hausa man or a fellow Muslim. Sorry, thats the hard fact in Nigeria's political culture. Maybe with time it wont matter.

babs01:
President...North
Senate president...North
Speaker .... North

we are born to rule.......
how market southerners?

Hearme:
Saraki is not a Northerner. He is a core Yoruba Man.

That is the reason Gbajabiamila lost the Speakers Position.

It reminds me how Gemade and Awoniyi (Kogi State) were fighting for the PDP Chairmanship then when it was Zoned to the North Central.
OBJ told Awoniyi that despite the fact that you associate with the North by structure you are a Yoruba Man.

I am Really Happy that Saraki Won, because the yoruba speaking people from Kwara and Kogi states suffer this kind of politics. Should the North East Have won the Senate President's position then Gbaja would have been the Speaker. Its pure politics of "Tribalism, Zones and Religion". A fair deal for all.

brownlord:
Bro, tinubu is finished, I'm surprised people are looking at the speakership and senate president election from party angle, the north has completely achieve their aim and tinubu is now useless, I mean useless, if he dare raise his head right now, his file will be open and he knows what that means.

The sophisticated region are not as smart as I thought for all I know, Osibanjo is just a domestic staff in Aso rock right now.

Tinubu invested wrongly this time.

Biafra Biafra Biafra Biafra Biafra Biafra Biafra Biafra just watch out soon and see if you can come back with the same question

Ugik:
hahahahahaha..lmfao..sori to disappoint you bro but it didnt.i was just checkmating your stupidity as a fellow nigerian ought to do.

VirginFinder:
You must be very pathetic!
How can you compare me with no 2 and 3 with yourself,a slavish no 5.
If anyone is pained, it should be Tinubu.Go and read my previous thread on Yoruba emergence as either Senate President or Speaker.

Still proud of Gbaja though. No ibo man can ever pull 174 votes through against a northerner despite his tribe (ibo) having gotten no 2 and 3.

I love the north even more for this. They kept faith with Femi to the very end. And they even nominated him when it seemed Dogara was coasting home unopposed.

The agelong deputies(ibos) remain the slaves here.

AND TRUST DIED!

Even amongst thieves there is honour! If both agree to go out and rob a bank then share the spoils 50-50. Let it be so. But when after robbing the bank successfully, one of the thief sees the other as a power that MUST be whittled down thereby denying him his legitimate spoil, you can be rest assured that that alliance is heading fast for the rocks. That is how policemen sometimes apprehend criminals. Not through the intelligence of a smart officer but through intelligence supplied by the aggrieved thief.

The major casualty today is not the players whose roles have charted a new course in our democracy. It is trust. Yes, trust is the casualty. Effectively, there's NO MORE TRUST in the APC. I hope you remember that where there's no trust, there's no relationship. It will be interesting after this to see Tinubu, Buhari and others backslap, hug, laugh heartily and hold arms without bitterness in their hearts. Honestly, it is not possible. No man loses investment worth billions to a fraudster yet remain good friends!

APC will try to heal their wounds and pull together again but if you have ever played politics, at whatever level before, you will know that the peace in APC will be that of the graveyard! Once egos are bruised, revenge is inevitable. Saraki knows this. Dogara knows this. Tinubu knows this.

Today, the PDP succeeded in exposing the underbelly of the state of the APC as regards it's preparedness for power. Close to 80 days after the APC was swept into power on their strange chant of "chanji" there's no sign that they even know what they are doing. Close to 80 days after winning an election, they could not pull through a horse trading deal for who gets what, when and how. They cannot articulate a list of Ministers to serve our fatherland. To cap it all, they went sheepishly to a meeting called at the ICC Abuja without so much as a rear guard watching this closely and giving them feedback. To think that Tinubu et al had to be scrambling for their cars to race back to NASS in shock beats any sane mind. These are supposed to be the people some Nigerians gave the mandate to govern them, yet had NO CLUE of a political coup unfolding under their noses. How can you trust these same people to protect Nigeria in troubled times God forbid! That Buhari travelled to Chad at the same time Osinbajo was in Sudan, when there were NO ELECTED leaders from the Senate or House of Representatives, no SGF nothing! Nigeria was effectively on auto pilot during this period? What!!! And at a time when Boko Haram was wrecking havoc??

Clearly, the APC is simply not ready to govern, perhaps due to its very nature of being a motley collection of the good, the bad and the ugly. Why won't i say so when it took the PDP 16 years to implode but took the APC only TWO WEEKS to press the self-destruct button! And you mock the PDP? Is this the "chanji" that PDP warned you about? If it is, then you are in trouble.

Next steps: are we going to see subterranean realignment of political interests from APC to PDP or to a new party or back to ACN or CPC for that matter? Keeping my fingers crossed and enjoying the political delicacy served up by politicians.

Note: A young turk in politics is becoming discernible. Give it up for my friend, Abdulmumin Jubril. He somehow picks his fight carefully and HE WINS them. Guy, one gbosa for you!

FreeGlobe:
with no 2 I guess you mean the mere commissioner? Pathetic. And fyi Bukola Abubakar Saraki is not yoruba. Kwara state is not yorubaland. As for an igbo man pulling votes against your slave masters, be informed that Ike Ekeweremmadu defeated Ali Ndume with 50 to 20 votes. This is really a sad day for yorubas. smh

barcanista:
It is Finished! PDP is now in charge of the two Chambers of the National Assembly!

Congratulations to all patriotic Nigerians and PDP members/Supporters! Together, we have cut the cabals (APC) to size. Sai Mogidi, Firefire DevilHimself Ecoterrors Bayswater Anonimi SeverusSnape Francizy Forwetinnah and ALL PDP supporters numerous to mention.
