Senate Presidency: I Deserve A National Award From APC – Melaye by salterswan(op): 6:03am On Jul 15, 2015
Those of us who were in the chambers that day and managed to get the Senate Presidency should be given national honours because at that point, PDP had more numbers than us, the quorum of the Senate was 38.

“Since they had more than 38 they could have nominated a Senate President and to remove a PDP/ Senate/Deputy President we needed 73 which the APC didn’t have.”In light of the on-going leadership crisis rocking the National Assembly, Senator Dino Maleye has said the Senators belonging to the Like Minds group of the All Progressives Congress, APC, deserve national honours for making it possible for an APC candidate to emerge as Senate President.

Speaking in a programme on African Independent Television, AIT, on Tuesday, Dino who represents Kogi West in the Senate, disclosed that the People Democratic Party, PDP, Senators on June 9 had all that was required to produce the Senate President.

Dino Melaye and the 'senators of like mind' may though be ambitious, we should still give kudos to them.

Looking at the incidence, removing the party interest and being straight, the normal PDP could have highjacked the house process and form the officers among themselves, but they'd already stated they aren't interested in the Senate Presidency.
If this had happened, till the end of this administration, there 'may' not be any meaningful outcome from the House.

However, the Traitors have no excuse telling us the opposition member could highjack any post, we all know the outcome of the event that morning was a script co-written by the Traitors and the opposition members.

Re: Senate Presidency: I Deserve A National Award From APC – Melaye by ddippset(m): 6:16am On Jul 15, 2015
rubbish! if they had tried to do that(double-cross Saraki), the APC senators present would have abstained from the vote and the PDP guys alone would probably have voted David Mark.that situation could have even been easier to deal with than what we have now.it would then be easier for the APC senators to form a parallel senate house and with the power of the presidency hijack the mace.


N.B.
But you could still get the your national award from APC Mr Melaye; the same way your crew betrayed the APC, just get a few PDP senators to betray their party, join with the number you have and impeach Ekweremadu. that way, APC will definitely give you your national award.

2 things are stopping them now; 1. the senate inauguraiton day is long gone. 2. Even till today Melaye, Saraki and their fellow betrayers who like to call themselves 'like minds' are still unrepentant; they would still protect ekweremadu with their lives!

iam only saying what could have happened on that inauguration day if the pdp alone had formed the quorum and elected one of their own. on that day, with a united apc, they would simply have done their own parallel inauguration if pdp had tried that. its common sense.

APC was not united because Tinubu tried to play lagos ludo in a purely game of chess in abuja!!! Abuja is not a place for amala politics!! Your local champion had to learn that the hard way
Re: Senate Presidency: I Deserve A National Award From APC – Melaye by azimibraun: 6:52am On Jul 15, 2015
Why not summarize? Eg PDP had 50members, APC had 30 and other Parties 5. All this English is useless. Figures will save you plenty of talk. 38 forms quorum is very clear to me.

you are derailing from our argument boy! our debate is about what could have happened if the pdp guys in the house that day had tried to double cross saraki and vote in mark.

And for those of you hating Dino, Buhari, Saraki, Tinubu, Ekweremadu et al. This is for you and it's from Nasir Oludara Jones. " God loves all..Beside Jesus on the Cross was a Crook and Killer" you can't have a Goodman without bad fellas lurking around and the other way round.. A bad guy must hve some good men around most definitely. We must manage who we have around that's all. Good or Bad. Abi did christ come off his cross and pushed the crook and the killer down? He maintained and prayed for everybody to be forgiven.

Melaye must be high on crack cocaine. Delusion of grandeur of the highest order. He had better decamp back to the PDP as he has a better chance of being celebrated there for betraying his party -- seeing as the PDP supporters on NL are already celebrating him, he should just decamp and make it official.

Politicians like Dino should be wary of the core values that endear them to their fans. Protecting the core values or appearing to protect their core values is the only way to remain relevant and popular.

The 8-Non-Loyal APC Senators (Dino inclusive) may never be able to justify their actions to the APC family. APC as a party has done everything nobly possible to discourage all the APC Senators from voting against the party's candidate.

The 8-Non-Loyal APC Senators (Dino inclusive), however, kept the game up through the eve of election into the election day. The APC Leaders appear to have kept vigil and a tab on all their Senators except the ones that jumped the fence.

APC leadership pre-election position was very clear and has remained the same post-election. The 8-Non-Loyal APC Senators actions were deliberate ; they should be brave enough to enjoy their victory and face the consequences.

Anything is still possible. APC, with the Federal power, has been conceding defeats since they took over from PDP. A time will come when they will loose their cool. They have many brutally legitimate options to get what they want at the NASS it all depend on PMP to give a go-ahead.

On the election day APC managed to control 51-Loyal Senators and 8 erring ones. I am curious, you seem to have a thing for Tinubu? I hope you are card-carrying PDP member.

Remember the Jollof rice at the bottom of the Pot in the morning is now the one at the top in the Cooler. smiley
