JackBaueress1: from my own point of view,I think PDP gave Saraki an option for him to pick a PDP senator as his deputy if he wants their support. Saraki ran to his old friends to bail him out and he was given that condition.
Like i always say,it's the beauty of democracy. Saraki will definitely reconcile with his party and that will no longer be an issue.
I must warn Lai Mohammed to always take things easy. He cannot say something different from what President Buhari says. He should learn to make consultation with the president before issuing statements there is a communication gap between the APC leadership and the presidency. The APC excos is still being controlled by jagaban which brought about today's MESS for you and VICTORY for me. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

omenka: [s]Good evening all.
This thread isn't created to spite any one or any people. It is just a wake up call to majority Nigerians, who happen to be very poor at remembering events of history and how they are meant to shape our thought processes and indeed orientation.
Now, very interesting events happened in the last 24 hours in our National Legislative Chambers. Both chambers were inaugurated and their leadership elected. APC being the dominant party clinched the top spots in both chambers, but as we all know, PDP and her supporters seem to be the most jubilant party over the outcome of the elections, why, one might be tempted to ask.
In the run up to the general elections, Saraki whom PDP supported doggedly in the just concluded NASS election, was hounded by the same party, threatened with all manner of sanctions that eventually culminated in his exit from the party. His rift with the party (PDP) and the presidency back then, began with his blowing the lid on what has come to be known as the biggest heist in the nation's history- the Subsidy Scam- which ran into tens of billions of dollars. He was buffeted from all sides with all manner of allegations and barely survived having himself locked up in jail. He eventually found a sanctuary in the opposition, now the ruling party.
Now, inexplicably, the same party that threw everything but the kitchen sink at this recalcitrant and rebellious congressman sees him as a valiant, their knight in shining armour. Wonders huh? Well they voted for him in the absence of half of the members of the Senate as the Senate president, case closed., and for what?- just to spite the opposition, maybe, and to have their man as the Deputy.
In the Green Chamber, Dagora emerged the Speaker. I know quite little about him, but nevertheless, that is immaterial to the crux of this piece.
Here's what my problem is: during the electioneering campaigns, Nigerians/electorates were subjected to all manner of divisive and potentially catastrophic propaganda from the PDP. To mention a few, we saw things like-
1. Buhari is too old to be a leader.
2. Buhari is a terrorist sponsor.
3. Buhari has fossilised ideas and cannot lead a 21st century country effectively.
4. Buhari has prostate cancer and might die soon.
5. Buhari's candidacy is a product Northern conspiracy for National domination.
6. Buhari is "tribalistic".
7. The Northerners suffer from a "Born to Rule Syndrome".
8. APC is a party akin to the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt. It is dominated by Muslims and Northerners.
And others too numerous to mention.
Numbers 5-8 are my major concern.
Most of the points listed above were propagated and hammered on by same people who are jubilant over the emergence of Dagora and Saraki as Speaker HoR and Senate President respectively. Dagora is a Northerner, Saraki is from North Central (includes christian dominated states such as Taraba, plateau, Benue, but when the time comes, PDP will call him a "Northerner", and when you say "North", everyone thinks "Islam/Muslim). It is necessary putting this in writing because a time will come, perhaps in 2019, when PDP would want to replay that ethnic, religious, and regional cards which appears to be the only ammo in their arsenal- polarise Nigerians along these lines, have them vote based on these sentiments, and see to your retention in office!
Now, the situation we have at present shows Three of the Top Four Positions are occupied by "Northerners" but PDP is happy about it and apparently has no qualms whatsoever with the arrangement.
I have always been against all that North, South, East, West, Muslim, Christian, Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo politicking. It has never and will never be the panacea to Nigeria's innumerable problems. Have always been pro Nigeria and would always support whoever it is that gets into an office as far as their competence isn't in doubt.
Without the support of PDP, what happened today wouldn't have happened, so we would hold them to account when the time comes, and remind them of their lofty stance at this time.
The events of today should effectively put to rest all that ethnoreligious politicking that PDP is known for.
We look forward to a very productive National Assembly.
Congrats to Saraki.
Congrats to Dagora.
God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

About time folks wake up and smell the coffee! This is not and should not be about the religious, tribal, ethnic or chauvinistic but good governance and politics of inclusiveness. Nigeria will be better for it. Not good however that the North-East seems out in the cold. I do hope that they can come in from the cold in no distant future. |
