helovesme: That was EXACTLY what played out, Saraki can be likened to Macbeth in his unbridled ambition.. He does not care how he realises his dream, all he cares about is his ends. Saraki didn't have to leave the PDP when he did but he saw the handwiting on the wall that Lai Moh'd & APC will definitely make an inroad into his domain & he took a quick decision & went with the G-5. |

arbitter: @ the emboldened, that has been my only source for concern since yesterday. Saraki as it stands is more pro-PDP than pro-APC. Expelling him would have been good but its not an option cause they would then have to expel the seven senators in his fold which will give PDP the upper hand of gaining full control of the upper chamber, having the leadership and the majority. |
Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by frankyychiji(f): 1:19pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
otokx:Watch those other members as they crawl back to Saraki. Saraki holds the four aces and his party knows it. They will thread with utmost caution. But are those really senators? Who swore them in? When? |

jorlons:Jonathan had to work with a treacherous speaker of the house of reps who made things difficult for him. You guys claim buhari is a better leader. Then he should be able to manoeuvre his way round saraki and dongara. That should be a test of his leadership skills, don't you think? 3 Likes |

ionsman:nothing!he is representing the executive arm of govt and he is desperate from the legislative arm of govt. if it was pointed out the executive arm(president) shifted with his own power the calender of the legislative house based primarily on a party affiliate,then he and the executive arm has crossed his powers as contained in the constitution (thank God it did not happen) |

modath: chai !!!! so busola is this cunny! how can you have a PDP senator as a deputy? who does that? he is making IBB look like a learner. is this what they taught him in med school? in a way, i blame EFCC for this. if they had dealt with all the allegations of corruption hanging over him - societe generale bank, one suspicious farming project in Kwara state where he imported Danish cows, equally suspicious football academy where he employed clements westerhof and many other allegations of corruption - he wont have the audacity to vie for the position as senate president. |

It is only a matter of time before all the PDP faithfuls come home and the artificial APC left to disintegrate into its constituents forms. The SE/SS would then become the real bastions of power. 2 Likes |

NgeneUkwenu: Too shameful !!! How can he do such to APC? the party that helped him in getting to the senate in the first place. With all that has played out (so early into a new government), its best he is expelled and let APC damn the consequences. But wait oh. If he is expelled, will he lose his seat as senate president? will there will be another election in the house? what happens next - best scenario, worst scenario? Chai!! the whole thing is just a proper checkmate. busola really thought this through ! 1 Like |

baby124:Don't worry. He will soon defect on his own. Expelling him is not needed. The PDP minority just gained leadership of the upper and lower house. That is incredible. |
Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by CSTR2: 1:36pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
helovesme:haha. PDP made him a governor twice and he dumped them. The senatorial seat he won under the APC is nothing compared to the governorship. And yes he will still retain his seat as senate leader even when expelled. Karma is a bittch, sorry. 2 Likes |

Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by CSTR2: 1:42pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
PDP should be the one angry sef. Most of the APC power men benefited from the PDP to rise to political relevance before dumping them for the APC. There are very few politicians who owe their political relevance to the APC . So i don't see what all the betrayal story from the APC is all about. PDP was the party betrayed not the APC. 1 Like |

CSTR2: If the APC leadership can effectively settle and unite the APC members in the lower chamber, then I'll say they damn the consequences and expel Saraki. It's better to know your enemies than have a mole within the party. It's funny you're happy with PMB's agenda for the country being thwarted but I guess it's because you're anti-Nigeria otherwise you would've been concerned about how this affects the delivery of promises made by PMB to Nigerians. |
Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by CSTR2: 1:48pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
jorlons:PMB is a former leader. If he can't maneouvre his way round dongara and saraki to deliver his campaign promises, then sorry he is not a true leader. A leader should be able to work with what he has and not complain about his tools. Even GEJ the so-called clueless did not complain about his tools. 3 Likes |

I.m sure those that gleefully approved of the heist at the Senate yesterday are well aware of how unproductive the Senate may turn out should this type of walk-out continue. And for the group that think yesterday's events was a victory for Nigerians, just wait for the time when it would be difficult to form a quorum to hold parliamentary sessions; get a quorum to pass resolutions or assent to bills and such a time when the legislature would have to go on forced and extended recess because principal officers would be fighting to keep their positions while core legislative and oversight functions grind to a halt! Victory for Nigerians indeed! |
Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by baby124: 1:49pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
AhmedMustapha:Saraki must be expelled for the APC leadership to show they are serious. Otherwise they lose the respect and followership of others. Others will feel they can do as they like, after all Saraki did it and got away with it. If Saraki gets away unpunished. APC will disintegrate before it even really begins. So he must be expelled. A party without structure and discipline is a dead party. It would have been different if all the senators were there like Dogara. I really don't fault Dogara's victory. But Saraki's victory and desperationis a very very bad omen for the party. |
Re: Breaking News: APC Senators Leave National Assembly During Session by BlackBaron: 1:50pm On Jun 10, 2015 |
When APC was receiving all and sundry into their folds; saints, sinners and demons, they were celebrating thinking they were getting stronger. Now the guerrillas that have struck from within, there's incredible tension all over with baying mobs on both sides. If this country was rightly run... Tinubu would have no impunity to select whoever he prefers. He'd also be in jail for misappropriating funds and strangling of the SW finances. Saraki would obviously be chilling in prison (yeah, I know so much more about him than the average NL. Think pre EFCC saga and during! ) The bigger picture is that this would complicate processes which the citizens were hoping for. Quests for punitive controls for corruption and smooth anti corruption stance would be greatly affected. I'll just say move on and get things done. These fuckwits politicians are the reason why the population continues to suffer! Buhari would need to force his way through anyone that is wants to sacrifice the interest of the nation for their own personal interest. 1 Like |
