Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, has been told in clear terms that he risks losing his coveted seat unless he defects from his party to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ekweremadu was elected into that office in 2015 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The Daily Sun gathered that APC Senators, predominantly those in the Unity Forum, are making a daring move to wrest power from Ekweremadu.

It was learnt that some APC Senators are already scheming to battle Ekweremadu, if the current efforts to convince the Deputy Senate President to defect to the ruling APC do not materialise.

Giving an insight into the scheming against Ekweremadu, Senator Kabir Marafa, a formidable member of the Unity Forum, told The Daily Sun that if the Deputy Senate President defects to APC, there might be no need to make a move for his seat.

Marafa insisted that Ekweremadu’s continuous stay in office was depriving the APC of what rightly belongs to it.

In the words of Sen. Marafa, “Let me call the Deputy President of the Senate, Ekweremadu to defect to APC. If he defects, it will seal everything and there will not be any problems again. Ekweremadu’s seat is the only one we are contesting. That seat belongs to us in the APC. He came from the PDP to take the seat.

“If he just accepts and defects to APC, everything will be fine. Instead of moving against his seat, let him join us now. Tell him to join APC. When he refuses to join APC, you can then come back here and ask me what to do next. He has the golden opportunity to join us. The constitution says that when there is crisis in a party, anybody can defect. As a person, I do not want to move against Ekweremadu’s seat,” Sen. Marafa said.

The APC desperation for Power has no boundary.

I know it was only a matter of time before Saraki betrays him under pressure from that wicked APC.

What is this?
By their comments we shall know them... ladies be careful who you date, I can only imagine the type of offering this guy drops every Sundays (.)

This condition to Ekweremadu seems to be the situation of being between the devil and the deep blue sea.
If he accepts,he become an outcast in his land, and if he doesn't then he become a cast-away in his place.

The ball is in his court, either. he defects or gets booted out.

Here, we see that Sen. Marafa of APC (a saint) is begging Ekweremadu of PDP to join them. In fact, he's making a passionate appeal, with even threats of ousting him if he refused.

So Ekweremadu has suddenly become a saint that is so desirous by APC?

Let it be known to you bunch of failures in that evil broom wielding party ( ), that Sen. Ike Ekweremadu is too saintly on his own to join such a conglomerate ( ) of old and un-retired thieves parading themselves as progressives! You all can go and die!

You're not Ekweremadu... He doesn't need your consent before he decamps.... Nigeria politics far differs from Nairaland political Section


Tho I wish he remains in PDP

APC. PARTY OF MAD PEOPLE

Nigerian senators fighting for their personal pockets. Bunch of greedy and selfish individuals

Hmmmmm

na by force, anyway who gives a shittt!

APC has been depriving the citizens what belongs to them and those foolish clowns have not deemed it fit to make laws that would ameliorate the hardship. Last year they distracted ppl with Saraki, this year it's Ekweremadu. May the mishap visited on Nigerians start locating all this senators. PDP and APC alike.
