Butterflyleo: So any senator absent on a particular day ceases to be a member of the house? Mu Mumu Sagay is clearly misleading many of you. Nonsense! 2 Likes |

wingmanII: Many of you are a disgrace to education. We try to explain it to you and you still refuse to learn. The total number of the senators are 109 Half of that number is roughly 54 A simple majority means 54 or above. Say 55 , 56, 57 senators present . That number becomes the simple majority of the members of the house. The constitution does not say 2/3 OF ALL the members of the house and neither does it say 2/3 OF THE ENTIRE members of the house. That simple majority forms a quorum because it is already above 1/3 of the total membership of the house and they then effect his impeachment with the votes of 2/3 of the simple majority present. This isn't hard to understand so just in case you are still struggling to understand what I just typed, then read it again. 1 Like |

Roger3D: Yes i even tolerated him for the mindless anti Buhari rants after all, Buhari is greater than his entire generation can be. But when he confessed to being a rapist, that was it for me. I reported him and that's why you can't see the other monikers active for now. Shakazullu,olaotu1 and tigerclaws are the active ones this paedophile uses. Just report him, the MODs know him.

Butterflyleo: can you state the country's constitution you are referring to......i need to be sure . Is that why you sent Dss there so that only 30 senators are allowed in and all 30 vote saraki out ? You guys are just shameless....see desperation....see warped interpretation. I know Apc' s game plan ...it is to remove saraki by illegal means and use govt might to delay the court process for redress......by the time the courts pronounce saraki the rightful Senate President it is already April 2019 ....IT WON'T WORK |

Butterflyleo: Ngeneukwenu, reason better than you do. I suppose you an adult but unfortunately, you are so childish, so incoherent in thought and worst of it all no honor. Do you think politics is for feeble nitwit like you? Little wonder, TonyeBarcanista no longer engage you in discussion because he found out that you are totally empty upstairs |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by Butterflyleo: 6:10pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
krendo: Legal language is everything. Simple MAJORITY of the members of the house means that those who would be seated MUST exceed half of the numbers of the house and not 2/3 of the entire members of the house. However, the impeachment itself can only be effective when 2/3 of that MORE THAN HALF THE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE support it. |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by wingmanII: 6:10pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Butterflyleo: We know those with half education. Keep interpreting trash, wait for the constitution to write ALL before you know all members are implied. You and your APC masters can go ahead and destroy the country, I don't care much. Given up on this shithole long before now. |

Saraki has caused a lot of damage in this administration and he has lost his respect and integrity in the process, but i believed that the APC are the people with integrity, they will never go through illegal means in removing the senate president, i believe that Saraki will be removed when the time is right. |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by tesppidd: 6:41pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Lol Even though I want to see Saraki disgraced and removed, or removed and disgraced, Anyone that comes first I don't bloody care! But the fact is that the constitution says; 2/3 of the members OF that house NOT 2/3 of the members IN that house OF and IN are very key words here. OF would require 73 senators IN would require 25 senators |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by tesppidd: 6:41pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
But having said that, Buhari is slow sha That's one difference between him and OBJ OBJ is mean and cold A man like OBJ would have capitalized on this lacuna Impeached Saraki with 25 members and damned the consequences Another senate would be inaugurated by june before the court cases would be decided. |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by donttouchme: 6:43pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Apc have not recovered from the two attempt they made to impeach him. Lol. |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by Butterflyleo: 6:46pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
tesppidd: The constitution says 2/3 OF THE MAJORITY of the members of the house. The members of the house is 109 Majority of the members of the house means that those who sit to effect the impeachment must be more than half the total number of the members of the entire house. It is that more than half of the whole house that 2/3 of their votes are required to impeach saraki. APC senators already meet that criteria in the constitution of 2/3 Majority of the members of the house and that is why saraki called a recess after he defected and that is also why the PDP senators have been conducting vigils at NASS and that is also why the sacked DG was used to cause a barricade. Saraki knows what the constitution says and he knows that his impeachment is already done but is just trying to hang on by any thread of deception, cowardice and manipulation he can get. The key term is MAJORITY |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by tesppidd: 6:55pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Butterflyleo:Just read again and it says two-thirds majority Now let's think about it; 1. Two-thirds majority 2. Two-thirds of the majority Are 1 and 2 the same? Lol. |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by Butterflyleo: 6:57pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
tesppidd: Read it in full. It says and I quote (c) if he is removed from office by a resolution of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, by the votes of not less than two-thirds majority of the members of that House It clearly says 2/3 MAJORITY of the members of that house. This means those who sit to effect the impeachment must be more than half of the total members of the senate (OF THAT HOUSE). But the actual impeachment requires the votes of 2/3 of that majority that is already seated such as 55, senators or above which shows MAJORITY of the numbers of THAT HOUSE. |

Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by Nobody: 7:21pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Butterflyleo: Even a supposed SAN n Sagar could not interprete the constitutional requirement. The 2/3 OF the House means 2/3 of 109, which is 73. It does not mean 2/3 IN plenary sir! |
Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by Butterflyleo: 7:31pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Amitez: Why are you mixing things up? It says 2/3 MAJORITY of the members of that house And not what you typed. Sagay is very very correct. |

Re: APC Senators: Stop Foot-dragging, Impeach Saraki Now! by nopains: 11:15pm On Aug 10, 2018 |
Butterflyleo: u have dragged this more than necessary. the constitution says simple majority can elect a senate president but 2/3 majority can remove the senate president. the clause " simple majority" means that it is simple to elect a SP with just 55 of 109 senators.then next clause " 2/3 majority" means it is more difficult to remove the SP because it takes the 73 of 109 senators to do that. the constitution intends to ensure a strong sense of stability to the office of SP. now going by your analysis, do u want to remove SP by a more ridiculous simpler clause of 2/3 majority of a simple majority? haba! how does that sounds to u? |

it seems the criteria for becoming a buhari is dat u must be dull nd uneducated. a SP can be elected through simple majority but it will take an ABSOLUTE majority(72)to remove him. ngene nd co should keep crying cause come 2019 saraki will still maintain his position y'll think saraki dont av ally among apc senators must be really dull. apc are just majority on paper�� |
