You are the one missing the point. If indeed APC has the highest members, the party should produce the senate president.

Said by which constitution!!! Go and review the constitution of the Senate and Federal Republic of Nigeria pls. Equip your self before writing for the public.

Well, we are no longer in normal times. Let the APC lawmakers reconvene the house, get him impeached by simple majority and pass the INEC budget. The house can go back on recess and Saraki can also go to court if he's not satisfied.
That will be illegal and Buhari won't stand b for that

How many months to the general elections? less than 7 months

APC set the precedent when Tambuwal defected to APC and remained Speaker. APC must learn to live with it.

Saraki will finish his term as Senate President

Gbam! The gods have spoken.

Meanwhile the APC wants Saraki to resign for decamping, it's ok. But, Buhari(your saint) is travelling out for health issue in 2 weeks. Comparing the two, please who should resign?

I like the logic of those who argued that Tambuwa set the precedence some years back, and no one forced him to resign.
If the then ruling party felt there was no need that he should resign, good.
Now, I believe if the present ruling party feels there should be a change of baton, then I honestly believe it is right.
They can only hope, but it will be an exercise in futility.

lies,u see,all these people were over ambitious,no matter who is the APC party chairman,they will still move to pdp because they felt they can not secure presidential ticket in APC. But pdp should not go asleep because there is danger ahead during the primary of these over ambitious and selfish fools.

The best way to manage their ambition is to put them through a very rigorous presidential primary

Debate and process should be tough

That way some will capitulate and the best man will win but most importantly the best man will then be battle ready for Buhari

It is you that is the Olodo...where is that written in the constitution?,that only happens because the party with the majority have the voting power to elect their fellow party man,if they want to remove him they can go ahead and mobilize 2/3....it is not written in Hausa but English in the constitution.OLODO.

NB: I'm not for either of APC or PDP, kindly be so guided.

You seem to have forgotten the APC did not want him as the senate president and in fact his travails started after he went against the wishes of his party...PDP put him there,which is why the deputy senate president is PDP,una can forget easily.If they want him out its simple,2/3 majority.

when tambuwal decamped in 2015,did you People ask him to honourably resigned?,the law did not say the majority party must produce the senate president rather that the senate shall elect amongst themselves a senate president who shall be the head of the senate,the law is also clear about the procedures of removing the senate president from office,so don't waste time going on a wild goose chase,except if you are thinking in terms of the use of brute force which is the trademark of your party the Apc.

—–Want Senators to call short the vacation to pass 2019 INEC budget
By Johnbosco Agbakwuru

ABUJA – THE All Progressives Congress (APC) and some senators elected on the platform of the party, Wednesday, urged the Senate President, Bukola Saraki to resign as Senate President.
The Senate Leader, Ahmad Lawan has also appealed to the senators to cut short their annual vacation to consider the supplementary budget forward by the President for the 2019 elections.

APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole and APC senators, led by Senate Leader, Lawan, who met with President Muhammadu Buhari behind closed-doors at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, told Saraki to vacate the office because the APC has the majority number of Senators.

According to them, Saraki cannot run to another party with the crown of APC.

Oshiomhole said, “Nobody in the APC will be surprised about the development, in fact they have stayed little bit longer than we thought. Last week the Kwara State Governor was alluded to have said he was leaving but he didn’t say when. So, we are not surprised at all.

“But these are what I might call temping moments because I had faced similar situations in my state, when people were leaving. But the beauty of democracy is that whether big or small, it is one man one vote, on election day, no difference between a senator, a president, a journalist and any other person.

“In a sense we have to accept that once a couple for any reason or the other find that they are not compatible, the only honourable thing is to go.

“I was happy for one thing that the senate president as a mark of honour accepted that he is leaving not because the new leadership did not make effort, he admitted that not only did I do everything possible along with the Vice President, along with some governors and we had meeting with the President, but he argued that those efforts came too late. But I couldn’t have started acting before I was born.

If you will have an adult conversation void of insults then I want you to know that you don't need 2/3 to impeach the Senate president. He wasn't elected by 2/3. If you remember vividly the drama that played out when he was elected. All you need is the numbers required to form a quorum. At the moment Apc in connivance with adc can form a quorum but let's keep our fingers crossed and watch how it plays out

May you never receive or experience the kind hatred @Saraki has gone through in the hand of this govt..

So if they had succeeded in imprisoned him because of mere hatred, that's when you will know he believes in democracy.
