They should bring it up, but from all indications; it seems APC is so determined this time around compared to what happened during the last tenure.

APC all the way
I believe we should have discipline in politics. I don't know how the party arrived at the consensus but rebellion is never good in any society. Even in our immediate family very few can condone it not to talk of large group of people.
In any position there must be only one winner and one/many losers. So not all can get what they want, but with patience and loyalty one can achieve his aim. Four years ago this same set of leaders were disappointed by scheming but they lay low and continued to be loyal party members. Fast forward to today they emerged victorious.
Many tend to forget that Ndume is today paying for the sins of his scheeming and rebellion with his friend Saraki exactly four years ago. And now he expected the same party he backstabbed to help him today, it is never done that way.
With his action today even if tomorrow something happens and there is need for new senate president he won't get it.
Politics is all about long sightedness and planning. Kalu and the rest are planning for tomorrow. Politics is all about give and take.
Congratulations Ahmed Lawal
Congratulations Gbajamila
Congratulations Omo Agege

the only way to deal with buhari d 2nd time is by electing strong senate president like Saraki

Oya naaaa

Hope they will build from where Saraki and Dogara stop. We don't need rubber-stamp NASS

Ok next set of looters

I don't believe this.

God will give us the best.

Is like OP is high on some.......
Today is 11th June please.

Let me bring my seat to the front
Today no today

Most objective Nigerians will somewhat switch off between now and 2023 when Buhari is expected to vacate office.

If you scale down your expectations, the force of disappointment will not be that overwhelming/definitive...

Today is June 11 @OP

That what he wrote sir

The hypocrisy of Nigerians stink to the highest heavens. The same party that is calling for a renegade to be a SP so as to deepen democracy was in power for 16yrs and had a rubber stamp senate President for those years. In fact they kept changing them like house boys, once one of the nass leaders see things from a different perspective you are a goner. They praised David Mark(rubber stamp personified) to the high heavens but today will fight tooth and nail against someone who wants to do same. How is that even reasonable
I have always said that problems of Nigeria are not it's leaders but Nigerians itself, before you become a leader you are a Nigerian first. Our leaders are a mirror image of the average Nigerian.
Let the majority have their way
