Nigerian Senate is a senate of fools, blockheads, Ignoramuses, and idiots. Yes, of course I know this description of Nigerian Senate by a Nigerian is offensive to some, may be more than some people. Nonetheless, it is true. The Senate is made up of callous, indifferent, stupid fools who keep silent in the face of tyranny while the nation and its people are dying.

Nigerians are their own worst enemies to a country we all pretend to love and care for. The 81 senators who backed Saraki no doubt were co-opted by the forces of greed. It's no surprise that the 81 fools, blockheads, ignoramuses, and idiots passed vote of confidence on Saraki for fraud and forgery that reward him with the senate presidency.

Thanks to these fools for given refuge to a con artist who presides over a senate of one of the richest countries on earth, yet with the largest number of poor. Frankly, there is something very wrong with us as a nation and as people. The elected 81 senators sold their souls, their bodies even their mothers to Saraki.

Nigerians have never learned anything all these years. We're taken for a ride, a wild dangerous and reckless ride by our not so honorable senators. Eighty-one senators in cahoot with a crook and thief whose family for more than a decade have taken us for a wild ride to the dark side of life, to poverty, and to looting our banks and the treasury.

Nigerians keep returning same damn people back to office. In fact, our National Assembly is no different from the feudal lords of the Dark Ages, passing their seats from father to son or to daughter. Make no mistake about it, they all laugh at us as we line up every election to cast our votes. Do you blame them? Of course not! They have good reasons: we don't take any actions against those who vote or support the devil against us, the citizens. We return them back to office.

There is such a frightening criminal collusion among the 81 senators. The disaster, suffering, sadness, poverty we have been experiencing as a people is a result of this collusion. As Nigerians, we handed over our destiny of a decent honorable life to a bunch of crooks, and decadent senators.

Everywhere you turn, it is the crooks and thieves that run the National Assembly, run the treasury, run the Central Bank, and until March 28 run Aso Rock. Nigerians, do you ever wonder why the 81 senators passed vote of confidence on Saraki who should be in jail by now? What do you think of the character and caliber of the 81 senators?

The 47 PDP senators and 34 APC senators who passed vote of confidence on Saraki did not support or share the anger of Nigerians over the forgery of the Senate Standing Order by Saraki and co-forgers. The senators claimed that the criticisms and police investigation into the forgery of Senate Standing Order amount to sustained interference in the internal affairs of the senate by distractors and media propaganda against the senate and senators by selfish politicians.

Internal affairs of who? By who? And for who? When has criminal offense such as forgery become “internal affairs”? Is the Senate now a family affair? Who owns the Senate? Nigerian people or the damn fool senators? Can you see the lawmakers at their best as lawbreakers? The 81 senators who support Bukola Saraki the heir to the Saraki Family Corruption Dynasty are severely retarded. They are just smart enough as fools. This is why they fight back with something other than facts since they're impoverished by lies and greed.

Th 81 intelligently disabled senators by passing vote of confidence on the leadership of Saraki means they are birds of the same feather – they're crooks and thieves. A vote of confidence on the leadership of a pathological thief who has nothing to offer the nation but to “steal and kill and destroy”?

See, the same APC senators who joined the PDP senators to support the leadership of Saraki rode on Buharimania to win the election are the very enemies who are against President Buhari's reformist agenda. See, by winning the election, we thought the stage was set to reclaim our country from the plunderers. But the very enemies are now dictating how not to run the country.

“As a Senate President,” Saraki assures his colleague fraud senators, “you have given me the responsibility to ensure that our primary responsibility is place on table not under the table.” Really? Who gave you the responsibility? Sir, you became the Senate President by under the table forgery. Meaning you rigged the game! By so doing, in reverse, you have trapped Nigerians under the table.

“It is time,” Saraki continues with his advice, “we remind ourselves of the solemn promise to deliver to our people real change.” Are you serious? How can a trickster like you who hijacked the people's mandate deliver the same people from the same con man? Can you give us example in ancient or contemporary history of a swindler who became a leader and who delivered his people?

The battle lines are drawn. The new fire is lit. This is a battle for the soul of Nigeria. The March 28 Democratic Revolution will complete its full course by getting rid of spoilers like Saraki and the 81 senators. No matter what, Nigerians will prevail because our need for progress is stronger than the ignorance, the foolishness, and the idiocy forced upon us by Saraki and the 81 senators.

Seconded

With forgery established against the Senate Standing Orders, I do not see Saraki staying beyond this year.

So because Tinubu lost out of the power play at the Senate, Nigeria should not move forward again?

The zombies are all working for that Tinubu. Even the forgery allegation are just trumped up charges. The fools should just live with the fact that Saraki/ Ekweremadu are here to stay for the next four years.

In all sincerity this established case of forgery should not be tolerated for whatsoever reasons. Whether is an internal affairs or not the culprits should be sanctions.

Unfortunately, the persons and office or positions to prosecute the case internally are actually those whose in favour the document was forged for against the long standing rules of amendment.

Nigerians needs to stand against this act of sabotage to the highest body of legislative arm and start working towards making Nigeria a nation where the slogan of a country where anything goes is not a reality any more. We need to stand against this impunity no matter the party or group of individuals that will be the beneficiary of the fight. This same reasons why Fayose was still Ekiti Governor where people supressed democracy just because the end beneficiary of the alleged slap of our Constitution by the state legislative arm where seven out over twenty house members were empowered to impeach the speaker and abuse of power where the Governor infringed on the suspended lawmakers right of freedom of movement and manipulation of the judiciary till their tenure expiration. just because the people perceived that the impeached speaker is the end beneficiary of the struggle if allow the law to take it course.

There is no forgery, it is called an Amendment and is consistent with 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011 and finally the 2015 Senate standing rules. The controversy on who amends it, doesn't delegitimatize the document rather it is reserved for the senators with majority support to redress or suspend it.

It is non of the Despot's business as the Senate has the internal mechanism to redress their internal affairs.

The Police says there was forgery and one random NLer says there was none. I wonder who I should believe.

That serious, it too extreme to call them fools for pursuing thei genuein interest.

What we should conndem instead is the way and manner they achieved it. And that actually reveal that the party lost control of some of its mamebrs to a traitor.

Seems this people are new in Nigeria,the senate has been ran by fools and idiots since time immemorial

Silly and useless opinion. But you can shovel it in your black ass or hug transformer. Saraki/Ekweremadu till 2019

Until i see Buhari Secondary school result, forgery is not an offense in Nigeria

It will be highly appreciated will you can avail us the process stipulated by the previous (2011) on how the rules can be amended and also evidences that the stated process was followed in the production of the latest (2015) Standing rules.

You are allow to call in or consult your fellow like minds to defend this. I hope the reply will be informative rather than abusive or beating around the bush.

You got it all wrong, the terminology has nothing to do with the Police recommendation quoted below -
Police forwarded to the Attorney General of the Federation to determine whether a crime had been committed or whether the alleged offence could be regarded as an internal affair of the Senate.

The Police are afraid of the "regenerated" military Despot hence they want him to take the responsibility and bear the consequences.

The Police never recommended prosecution.

I was expecting u to say dat nigerian senate has always being run by fools and idiots,bt since u didn't,i wanna ask:what do u call d persons dat have being running d senate b4?

2011 Senate standing rules is entirely new document from 2015 senate rules.

The Senate has its internal mechanism for resolving it matters - Fact.

The standing rules can be suspended by the Senate - Fact.

A member can move for amendment on the floor of the chambers to amend a specific portion and get it done with majority votes - Fact.

What then is the business of Executive branch in the business of independent Legislature where there is internal mechanism on resolving their problems.

May I remind you that International criminal court doesn't assume jurisdiction on cases where a member State has internal mechanism of adjudication for either a crime dimed to be human right abuse or crime against humanity.

Op please who sent you to spill all these hate these morning.

It's obvious you're still wailing over the loss of your god at the last polls.

Stop mentioning or quoting me please.

wat kind of nonsense is this.. this is bad journalism, I know the senate to day is almost moribund. why using abusive words "fools" and "idiots". what of words like kleptomaniac, selfish, vision less, or even mentally unstable persons. nigerians are very uncivilised people. I hope this bayo is not writing this because somebody wants his own boy to be the senate President.

The title of the document is 2015 Senate Standing Rules and Orders (as amended). Thus nullify that it is a new document. Even Saraki in his letter to APC refers to it as amended and your post I initially quoted points to it as being amended. They which document was amended and how was it amended? If I may ask.

Yes they are all facts but has the 2nd and 3rd facts happens on the floor of the house?

The Executive has no business whatsoever with the business of the Legislative, that is also a fact. But when the Executives has an unresolved issues, the legislative come in through impeachment, and enacting or amending of laws of Executive arms. So also when the Legislative arm found in a situation where he can not resolved it internal crisis to the detriment of the the country and the Executive, I hope the best way is the Executive to fold it's arms and look other way round. I believe you understand the concept of checks and balances in the independence of all the three arms of governemnt.

Above all, all I know about this current Senate crisis was that it was aggrieved members of Legislative arms that petition the FG agency established by the act of Legislative arm (and not the Executive) to investigate into the irregularity and illegal act of its house to determine if the act is capable of felony against the existence or otherwise of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Still yet, you failed to answer the questions asked. Still waiting...

Senate has never been run by sensible people since 1999
