Lauretta Onochie, President Muhammadu Buhari’s aide on social media has again reacted to the defection of the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki from the All Progressive Congress, APC, to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

This time Onochie in an article titled ‘The Many Sins of Dr Bukola Saraki Against APC and The APC Led Government’ listed the sins she perceived the Senate President must have committed one of which is that Saraki was a clog in the wheel of progress of the development of the Nigeria and the implementation of the policies of the administration.

Another is non-confirmation of EFCC Chairman sent in by the President impeding and threatening to derail the fight against corruption.

Below are the ‘Many Sins of Dr Bukola Saraki Against APC and The APC Led Government’ by Lauretta Onochie
APC is the most tolerant political party in the world.

No other party would accommodate Dr. Saraki the way APC did till we could take no more. Here are a few of his sins. Just a few obvious ones that are in the public domain:

• Non-confirmation of EFCC Chairman sent in by the President impeding and threatening to derail the fight against corruption.

• Giving preference to PDP members in committee appointments in the Senate.

• Delay in the confirmation of the boards for AMCON, CBN, NERC, NSADA, ICPC, among others.

• Giving the Deputy Senate President to the opposition party.

•Placing roadblocks to the actualization of government’s promises to Nigerians.

• Constituting a clog in the wheel of progress of the development of the country and the implementation of the policies of the administration.

• Joining forces with the opposition to ridicule President Buhari’s fight against corruption.

• Stole money from the APC Campaign during the Presidential campaign in 2015 and starved the Campaign Council of funds.

• Maintains a relationship with a gang of armed robbers who have been notorious for disturbing the peace of good people of Kwara State.

• Rallied corrupt elements to buy his Senate Presidency seat against the wishes of the Party.

• Currently inducing Senators with $100,000 each to suffocate PMB’s government in the Senate.

• Delay of the 2016, 2017 and 2018 budgets and thus impeding the economic development of the country.

• Budget padding and inserting 391 projects into budget of only two agencies.

• Shutting down the National Assembly and personalizing the National Assembly affairs especially when he is required to answer questions at law enforcement authorities, we see the entire senate following him to the CCT and shutting down the Senate.

• His refusal to entertain the virement for the funding of critical MDA’s which will ensure key agencies like INEC, NSA, NPF conduct their duties to ensure a free and fair elections.

• Frustrating key laws in the fight against corruption and promoting laws that serve personal interest like the Bill on re-ordering the sequence of elections.

• Fictitious insertions of amounts that are diverted in the name of constituency projects.

• Lack of internal democracy where he, at will, suspends senators with different opinion from him.

• Refusal to approve loans meant for infrastructural development of the country.

• Using the Senate as an institution to fight personal vendetta.

• Generally undermining the government for the past three years.

• Permitting and tacitly endorsing frivolous motions to unjustly attack the President and the Government.

krendo:
Long list of nothing, only 3 points there deserves a response

EFCC chairman confirmation. The Presidency can not send a nominee and an agency of Executive branch the DSS writes a damaging security report and you expect the Senate to still confirm him. The Presidency to this date has not sacked the head of DSS for unjustly undermining a FG appointee. Really not sure what the Presidency expects of the Senate on this one. The DSS to this day is upholding their damaging security report on Magu. A clean security report is a prerequisite to get Senate confirmation. The Presidency refused to discipline the DSS and obtain a good report on Magu and yet the same Presidency refused to replace Magu but somehow wants to bully the senate to engage in impunity by overlooking the DSS report? It’s ridiculous!

The refusal of confirmation of AMcOn boss etc is because of the Presidency refusing to recognise the right to the senate as per the EFCC chairman not to confirm a nominee. Again the Presidency is to blame on this one as they can’t have it both ways

The issue of election sequence has been settle by the court and the power of the legislature to determine or amend electoral laws including the sequence is settled by the court. If Buhari is as popular as he claims he should fear nothing and should go out to win the election no matter the order of elections

The issue of virement is poor planning and management on the part of the executive. We did not realise suddenly that we will have election in 2019. We knew in 2015 that Nigeria will have another election in 2019. Why did the executive not plan for the funds required to sponsor the election. Why this adhoc arrangement called virement. It smacks of an administration that just can not plan for the future. Also 242 billion is too much for the election. The money should be reduce to 120 billion! The last election cost 90 billion!

All the other list is just bla bla bla. Saraki is a presiding officer who only rules on the decisions of his colleagues. He can not be held responsible for the collective decision of the Senate!
