voxpopp: When i say APC members are suffering from selective memory, i am termed a tanoid, take a look at osun, apc memory never shifts towards that side, but always to an erring pdp state/member. Now consider tambuwal and co, they never asked the to resign, now the want ekweremadu to resign, that shows you that apc is just like any other nigerian party, selfish, greedy, ambitious with a total disregard for the common citizen. 2 Likes |

voxpopp: Your consistent and paranoid obsession with "TANOIDS" is a clear pointer that all is not well in your cerebral processes. Perhaps you need prolonged and sustained counselling for you to realise that Buhari is NOW in Power. Go to the nearest psychiatric hospital or find your way to Yaba left. You desperately need psychiatric redemption man... |

Wsdm:The senate standing order, the rule upon which all businesses of the senate is conducted stipulated that 1/3 of the whole members of the senate forms the Quorum. So 77 is far more than that number and getting 54 out of 77 makes him legally elected under the law. APC are just being silly and unnecessarily heating-up the polity. Ekweremadu is legally elected. |

These people are either daft or too blinded by hate and ambition for them to be capable of any rational disposition. They should be aware that their position is untenable as simple majority applies to senators present at the time of election once quorum is formed. The clerk is not under the president and does not need the president permission to carry on with his constitutional duties so why are they calling for him for his probe? |

Wsdm:. Don't be fooled by what those losers are saying. The law clearly states that the house can seat once a quorum has been formed, the house can seat. The quorum required for a senate sitting is one third of the house, which is about 40. The constitution further states that to elect the SP and DSP, a simple majority is needed. The constitution never said the simple majority must be a simple majority of 55. No, rather the simple majority is the simple majority of members present. In this case even if Ekwerenmadu had gotten 40 votes out of 72 members present then, he still would have won. So the aggrieved losers have no case. 1 Like |

If Senator Ekweremadu must require 55 votes out of the 109 or 108 senators (with one dead senator elect) to become the deputy speaker that is to say that President Buhari must get over 35m votes out of the over 70m registered voters to be President. Apc should just swallow the humble pie and allow peace to reign, because some of the Apc's senators are beginning to sound childish and ignorant of the law. |

Resign keh? Seems like these Anti-Saraki boys doesnt know that Senator Ike Ekweremadu is a 4th term senator and thus is more politically wise and experienced in the Senate affairs than them. He was legally elected and no amount of wailing will make him resign. It can only be the other way round which means that you are going to resign from the senate because of frustration. Arrant nonsense! |

Ekwerenmadu has no option than to resign. The APC may live with the reality of Saraki as the Senate President, but not Ekwerenmadu as the Deputy. The majority party cannot afford to allow an opposition as a the Deputy Senate President. Its like living with a devil who you fast and pray against. If he does not resign, he should be strategically impeached. That's my honest and bold view. |

They can as well resign their membership and go lord it over their respective families, mumucious undistinguished nitwits. |

Wsdm: there r only two tthngs that can make ekweremadu lleave dat seat, 1 is if he resigns n two if he is impeach. if we go by the 2nd option the house needs 2third of memberss which is 72 senators to vote on this. at the moment i cant see that POSSIBLE! SO THEY SHOULD ACCEPT DEFEAT N MOVE ON WITH THE LOOTING! |

chigoizie7: The PDP knew if they went for the Senate President position, the 8 APC senators present would have refused to vote for them. It would have been an all PDP affair and thus easier to be overruled by the court. Moreover, the uproar that would have ensued would not be too good for the country. They are able to pull this off just because to some extent Saraki too has some level of support in the APC. You'll soon see that at the end of it all, it is the Deputy senate president position that will be used for reconciliation. No need to talk too much. Just wait and see. It is at that point that the PDP will realise that Saraki just used them for his own ambition. |
