PDP Submits Saraki’s Name To INEC As Its Senatorial Candidate For Kwara Central by adioolayi(m): 7:33am On Oct 19, 2018 |
The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party has sent the name of the President of the Senate , Senator Bukola Saraki , to the Independent National Electoral Commission as a senatorial candidate . The name of Saraki was among the list of candidates submitted to the commission in Abuja on Thursday night . Saraki , who represents Kwara Central District in the Senate , was among the 13 presidential aspirants of the party . He came third at the party ’ s national convention which was held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. The PDP had held the senatorial primaries before that of the presidential primary . While Saraki paid for the PDP nomination and expression of interest forms , it was however not clear if he paid for that of the Senate as well . Investigations by one of our correspondents in Abuja showed that Saraki ’ s name was used to replace the name of one Ope, whose name was initially filed as the PDP candidate for the senatorial district. It had initially been speculated that the former governor of Kwara State was among the suspected presidential aspirants in the party who had another plan since they knew they could lose the PDP presidential nomination . It was learnt that Saraki is being positioned to return as the President of the Senate in 2019 by the PDP , if former Vice President Atiku Abubakar wins the presidential election . The source said, “Bukola Saraki ’ s name is there ( in the list) . He ’ s returning to the Senate on the platform of the PDP . ” Investigations by one of our correspondents in Abuja showed that Saraki ’ s name was used to replace the name of one Ope, whose name was initially filed as the PDP candidate for the senatorial district.

This is no news to some of us cos we knew from the on set that the guy who got and display the form is just a dummy. Even he doesn't look like someone who should be a Senator. Good luck to Saraki, we meet at the polls. This is one area where the Federal might would be tested. He will be very lucky to be returned. 33 Likes 2 Shares |
