If this Saraki remains in the APC then he would become the most foolish politician I have ever seen. For four years, his own party insulted him. Court cases, bills not approved, legislature mocked. They didnt even want him to be the president of the senate in the first place

Nogodye:
They just want to manage saraki till 2019 when it will be too late for him to defect...He only have the votes of kwara state alone.

you think he is stupid....

[quote author= post=69567999]Saraki should stop sitting on the fence, he should let us know where he sits.[/quote]Is that one zombies' headache? Okocha see me o

My candid opinion and advice to Saraki, rAPC and nPDP:

Nigerian leaders are like Indian and Lebanese employers. When you work for these people and put up your best effort, they rely on you for successes, yet will look down on you. The day you resign, they come begging and offering you what they should ordinarily have done years before. Why? They are deceitful. If you fall for their bate, the following happens.

They will learn all you know and subsequently throw you out of the window. I worked briefly with Churchgate group on graduation. There was this very smart guy that was in this position, on resignation, even the MD took him out for dinner just to persuade him to remain. Unfortunately, this guy fell for the bate. The rest is story. He lost the new job and was sacked by Churchgate within same year. Of course, they already got someone to understudy him, so he was no longer relevant.

Import of above is for Saraki and the nPDP, rAPC and co. to complete their defection and crumble APC. I can imagine if he lost at the Supreme Court. Today, he would be crawling before Buhari. A leopard can never change his spot, so is Buhari. He has not changed a bit from the same man we knew in 1983 - 1985.

A word is enough for the wise!!!

NB: Mr. Senate President, I perceive you will read this. Please, be "bloody, bold and resolute; laugh to scorn the power of man (presidency)" for you hold the four aces now. If you miss this, you are heading for political oblivion!

You are absolutely correct, those people are slaveriders

IsaAbubakar:
he has been entering the trap since 2015

we don hear

when we told you guys that saraki is the most powerful politician in the country now you doubt

Even Tinubu agrees with you.

IGP idris should honour the senate invitation, arrest n prosecute those that stole the senate mace, the security chiefs must be sacked n rejigged among other things before we can take buhari serious. If his government can be embroiled with all this atrocities in his first term I wonder what will happen if given another four years term. Buhari is an unrepentant extremist hard bent on Islamizing Nigeria

sarrki:
If the story is actually true

Which I believe from the visit this week by saraki to state House.

The story is true

Then I can say that I doubt the integrity of Mr president

Everything should not be politics

If this is True then PMB.. is bribing his way through just to be in power... where is the CORRUPTION FIGHT... Like you said Living and Dieing in Politics that shouldn't

Your doubts are irrelevant. Just keep doing your "I'm a patriot" aka BMC job.

I just pray Saraki will be intelligence enough to know that it is a greek gift being offered to him by the John Bull of the manors farm. Thought they said he already has 12 Million votes, why does he need Saraki, Kwakwanso again. Even Tinubu was used and dumped. If all these people allowed themselves to be deceived then they should be ready for a worst life, if this cold and callous Fulani is returned

This clearly shows the type of democracy we have in this country and the position of things. How does this dealing benefit the common man? The accelerated attention Saraki has got from the president and presidency since his purported move out of APC would have ended the killings in Nigeria especially the middle belt if same was given. The same man you have painted corrupt. The same person who said he will not talk to the nPDP has just licked and swallowed his vomit and somebody will come to preach integrity to me. My greatest disappointment is the type of people we have become because in saner environments, this rubbish can never be allowed.

The same president who support his appointees to bluntly disobey the legislative arm of govt without any consideration of the rule of law.

Saraki should not fall for this, because buhari want to play with his head, knowing that saraki has his eyes in the number 1 position of this country.

Buhari will not fulfill any of those mouth watery promises, if by any means that Executive order 6 sees the light of day.

N.B This issue will show Nigerians if saraki won his asset case or it was given to him

wallex1983:
The only juicy offer after being a Number 3 appears to be Number 1 to me...

By the way, Saraki will use this to build his presidential ambition dynasty. It is clear that those who are with Saraki are more than those who are with Buhari.

they don come again,, same people that decieved GEJ the whole nigeria is behind him.
lets talk reality,, politicians + ipob might like & vote saraki but neutral minded nigerians cannt vote saraki because people hated how his family as turn kwara to personal property not to mention society generale bank scam, yoruba cannt leave tinubu to follow saraki ,,the northerners cannt like there own as well ,,that leaves saraki with ipobs + kwara and dino constituency he wonnt gather wat GEJ had in 2015

DonFreshmoney:
Buhari dey dissapoint me I swear... why bending to saraki wishes?

Sarrki, u can't be an OP and be contesting FTC again.. u greedy bastardd. Lol

without Saraki he will be crying in daura

the presidency has shot themselves on the foot by going to beg saraki. They have inadvertently accepted the fact saraki hold all the aces even if saraki wasn't sure, this move has even enbolden him the more to realize his political relevance. Saraki knows he has more friends and loyalist in PDP than APC. So your guess is as good as mine where he will pitch his tent. Ever since he emerge as Senate president, APC has been persecuting him for 3 years in order to dethrone him, if not for PDP that got his back for those numbers of years. Whoever thought a mere begging will just easily placate him and sway his sentiment is gullible. Infact by begging APC has made themselves even more vulnerable. Watch as this guys wipe the floor with APC come 2019.

Please my senate Presido wise up and take not the Greek gift, all these overtures cos of 2019. Don't be like Tinubu.

Muhammadu Buhari has no integrity whatsoever and should not be mentioned alongside that word. He only has the forgetful innocence of people that suffer from acute brain malfunction.

So you are just realizing and doubting the integrity of the President now? You have been on a long sleep.

They are more than confused, Saraki can't leave because of Skeleton in his cupboard, the idiots can't let him go for fear of losing election.

Firefire:
What is wrong with you my friend? I think is high time you stopped being naive / a doubting Thomas and get into reality thoughts about your dubious and power drunk President.

Mr. Mohomodu Buhary has no single INTEGRITY whatsoever but a high level megalomaniac.

I think he is one of the Nigerian who does not know the meaning of integrity

Saraki you need to speak with Prof. Sat Obiyan of OAU as soon as possible



That man will give you all the advice you need 100%

Saraki will be better off in APC.

So you thought buharig had integrity? Integrity my ass!
Buharig is only interested in the perks which his office has offered him and his family. Free medical for the terminally sick buaharig. Can't you see the lifestyles of his children, cruising expensive power bikes and all stuff. This is why buharig wanted to be President even at the cost of some innocent lives.

BeeBeeOoh:
But APC's online army told us that Saraki is a thief So, why wooing him with juicy stuffs??




I could remember in 2015 how zombies told us that Saraki's SP won't exceed August, but we are now in July 2018. This Saraki though a looter, he's a cat with 18 lives

What's it with saraki and this looter ish! Is saraki more of a looter than the emperors of the west,o r the looters since almagamation of the north? If you know you know

front4line:
Everyday lunatics comment on NL.
How can anyone even in madness declare those with Saraki are more than those with Buhari.

You are a mere boy, what do you know?

ShenTeh:
You know, after reading this, I stopped, went on reading the thread, came back to read it again and sadly, much as I don't fancy Saraki, this statement is actually true.

Saraki literally has all the senators in his pouch. They can't dare him in the house else his fellow dogs will move for their suspension and the 'naysayers' will have it. His alliance with the PDP further solidifies this position.

Fact: Saraki is the biggest politician in Nigeria today.

But his greed is at the door and that's my consolation.

What greed exactly?

That he became senate President?

That senators for the first time decided to choose their own leaders by themselves?

That CPC got Presidency while ACN got vice presidency and nPDP should not get Senate presidency?

That Saraki did what every politician do to become SP?

That for once we don't have a rubber stamp legislature?

What exactly was his greed you talk about?

Saraki as at today remains the greatest politician in Nigeria, disregard him at your own peril.

Mr Senate president, let me give you a candid advice. Never go back to APC. They will destroy you after getting what they want which is to win 2019 election. For 3 good Years, they dragged your name in the mud in the eyes of the international community from CCT to the supreme court. If you had lost in supreme court, your second name would have been sorry. Are you no longer the sponsor of Offa bank robbery? You hold the power in North central, use it against them. Pls be wise.

Sarrki, e be like say sense don dey fall on you small small, good luck with those if, if and more if.

There were strong indications that President Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress and governors are considering juicy offers for the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, to prevent his defection to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

It was learnt that some prominent leaders of the party, especially the coordinator of the reconciliation initiative, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, might be involved in the negotiation with Saraki.

Tinubu was said to have been briefed about the President’s interaction with Saraki and others.

But Saraki, who bowed well for the President after a meeting at the Presidential Villa, was frank in expressing his mind.



He said he felt humiliated by the party he co-founded and the government he jointly put in place with others.

He was solemn in expressing his disappointment to the President and some APC governors.

Investigation conducted by our correspondent revealed that the President and some APC governors met with the Senate President as a follow-up to the talks with New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP) caucus of APC being coordinated in the past few months by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

It was gathered that most APC leaders, governors and other members were unhappy that the party was on the verge of losing Saraki to PDP.

They believed that the defection of such a “political heavyweight” to the opposition might affect cohesion in APC for the 2019 poll.

The consequences of a depleted APC impelled some governors and party leaders to broker understanding between the President and Saraki.



A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “At least, for the first time, there was a frank session between the President and Saraki.

“He expressed disappointment with his humiliation by the government he fought hard to put in place.

“We were all sober while he relived his travails, because none of us would pray to be in such a situation.

“We understood with him but we felt it was time to forgive and forget in order to move forward.

“As part of preventing Saraki’s defection, we may offer him juicy terms including:

.Automatic return as the President of the Senate in 2019

.More consultation and inclusiveness in key decisions henceforth

.Mutual Executive-Legislature relationship

.Revisiting all issues raised by nPDP Caucus which formed the basis of talks in the past few months

.Reconciling with all aggrieved leaders of nPDP

.Avoiding a repeat of past mistakes which led to his humiliation

“We also appeal to Saraki to shelve moves to defect to PDP or any other party. We agreed that he has a better stake in APC than any other party.”

Asked if Saraki made any commitment, the source added: “There was none yet, but the atmosphere was cordial and hopeful.

“After the meeting, he even bowed well to the President.

“The session was the climax of talks in the past few months. As one of our leaders, we leave the final decision to Saraki to take.



“But one thing was clear from Saraki: he will want all commitments put into writing and documented in case of any breach in the future.

“To some of us who have been wooing him, such a demand is in order. It is a case of once bitten, twice shy.”

Responding to a question, the source said: “The final stage of talks with Saraki will still involve some of our leaders, like Asiwaju Bola Tinubu who is coordinating the reconciliation in the party.

“In fact, Tinubu has been briefed on the outcome of the meeting at the Villa and why he has to play a key role too.”

Some of the major complaints on nPDP are:

Grudges on the conduct of state congresses
Alleged refusal of the party leadership to stamp its feet on parallel congresses in some states
In the constitution of the Federal Executive Council, (FEC) the New PDP block was generally sidelined as virtually no position was conceded to it. The only member of FEC that belonged to former New PDP block comes from a state that contributed virtually no vote to the APC in the 2015 presidential election.

There has been no significant patronage and appointments to executive positions in various government agencies such as Chief Executives and Executive Directors of government agencies and parastatals as members of our block of the party continue to helplessly watch as these positions are shared by the erstwhile CPC, ACN, ANPP and even APGA blocks of the party and those who have no party at all.

In appointments into boards of various government agencies, very few former New PDP members were patronised. These are, however, not commensurate with our contributions to the growth and victory of the party.

When members of the former New PDP block showed interest in running for the offices of President of the Senate and Speaker of the House of Representatives, they were subjected to a vicious and relentless political opposition as if they were not legitimate members of the APC family.
During the party primaries preparatory to the 2015 general elections, most of the promises made to sitting members of the National Assembly, who belonged to the former new PDP in terms of a level playing field were reneged upon or observed more in breach.

There has been general lack of consultation, non-recognition and even persecution of former New PDP members and leaders by the party and government. For example, some of our leaders are denied the security cover necessary to visit their constituencies even though they are elected representatives of the people in a government they sacrificed so much for.

Harassment, intimidation and persecution of former New PDP leaders by the government is still an ongoing affair. We do not want to overstate the obvious by cataloguing names of former new PDP stalwarts that are targets of this political pogrom.

Bubu and APC have a penchant of not keeping to promises. Saraki should learn from failed expectations experienced by Nigerians!!!

Mr Senate president, let me give you a candid advice. Never go back to APC. They will destroy you after getting what they want which is to win 2019 election.

buhariguy:
so what will PDP do now?
Disappointed.?

Buhari is only playing politics with saraki.

Saraki will leave for sure. He is a suave and smart politician.

They wanted to destroy him but God has bigger plans for him. Those who stood by him during his travail are his people not those who put him through the ordeal.

Buhari/apc are his adversaries not his friends!

Your write up is quite interesting. You seem to assume that if Saraki should join the coalition, he would automatically be offered the Presidential ticket to run against Buhari! Even if he's offered the Senate Presidency, what's the guarantee the Coalition can actually oust the APC or win majority in the Senate?
