The speech is so captivating and all encompassing. In a nutshell, He said ''We must not be held down by unnecessary politicking. The enormity of our national challenges at this time does not give room for pettiness or politics of vendetta.'' 1 Like |

Extracts from the Great Speech by the SP As we resume today, we must demonstrate clearly to Nigerians that we are prepared to fulfill our mandates and put Nigeria first in all that we do, no matter how we feel about anything else. To behave contrary will amount to a betrayal of the confidence repose on us by our constituencies and our country as a whole. Sadly, some touts in the degenerated chambers failed to adhere to his admonition. We must think hard and work hard with the Executive to achieve greater clarity in policy direction and interventions. We shall therefore commence immediately, a review of the 2015 budget and begin now to lay down the fundamental principles that would determine the 2016 budget and the philosophy of our economy in times like this. Even the blinds can see clearly that there is no policy direction at the moment. Like I mentioned earlier, legislative agenda must take precedent over all other things in this Senate. Not for those whose pay masters are with their remote controls outside, putting them on play and stop modes whenever it pleases them. We are here to proffer policy solutions and minimize hardship amongst our people. Any other objective must be secondary. The externalized distractions we have had recently have been unhelpful. FACT As we await the list of ministerial nominees this week, I believe the presence of ministers will create the space for greater policy engagement with the Executive Arm of government and enable us to begin to respond in a more systematic manner to the various economic and social challenges before us, especially through our various Committees that will also be constituted soon. FACT We must not be held down by unnecessary politicking. The enormity of our national challenges at this time does not give room for pettiness or politics of vendetta. Sadly, some touts in the house where sent in there by their pay masters purely for the purposes of politics of vendetta I have no iota of doubt that I am on trial today because I am the president of the Nigerian Senate, against the wishes of some powerful individuals outside this Chambers. But what is clear to me also, is that the laws of Nigeria, and the rules of the National Assembly give consideration only to the wishes and desires of those of you who are here today as members of the Senate, to elect as you wish, one of your peers as President of the Senate. ABSOLUTELY CORRECT The laws of Nigeria do not give any consideration to any other forces outside the Senate in the election of its President and to yield the ground on this note, is to be complicit in the subversion of democracy and its core principles of separation of powers as enshrined in our constitution. ABSOLUTELY CORRECT This is why we must once again, commend President Muhammadu Buhari, for refusing to interfere in the election of the National Assembly leadership even in the face of enormous pressures on him to do so. He has proven quite concretely that he is indeed a born-again democrat. THE STATEMENT ABOVE IS INCORRECT Ultimately, our legacies would not be defined by how long we stay here and in whatever position; but by what we did with this great opportunity that our people have given us by the grace of Almighty God. NIGERIAN POLITICIANS DO NOT HAVE ANY POSITIVE LEGACIES SIR, EVEN YOU INCLUSIVE. 1 Like |

Wonders will never end. Saraki is trying to curry favour through oratory prowess...... Tell that to the marine Oga Bukola...... When you were busy syphoning Kwarans resources, you never thought of nemesis when you converted most of Kwara State's properties to your personal belonging you forgot nemesis Now that you have risen to higher elevation through what you know how to do best, and your past is catching up with you, you are now looking for who to blame. I know you must be surprised when Ilorin people were shouting 'Ole!' 'Ole!' at you while pelting you with stones and sachet waters, you will be suprise not because you have not stolen from them but because you thought you have them in your pocket. Blame Tinubu no more, Its nemesis at work. |

When people say these politicians are corrupt, I wonder whether they did not vote and if they did, is it not the same politicians they are now calling corrupt. During defection, campaign and electioneering, Sen. Saraki didn't have issues, now just 'cus he is having the lions share, he is corrupt. Well, i'd love to think of them as Smart and intelligent. He has shown in his speech. |

Dr. Bukola, this is what happens to someone whose vien is full of blood betrayal. The party wanted someone else for a Senate president but you played a fast one on them by showing your chameleon character to hurt the party. Now that you have bit more than you can take, you are lamenting in the Senate concerning the leaders in your party. Thank God you know that they are 'powerful'. Next Senate President please. |
