Senate President Bukola Saraki also released a statement reacting to Tinubu's reply to the SUN Newspapers accusations heaped on their heads...
Read Tinubu's Reply to the Sun HERE if you missed it.
Read Saraki's reply below ..
''I saw the statement said to be issued by Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu over a story published by The Sun newspapers. I have decided not to join issues with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. However, I know that most Nigerians are aware that there has been no meeting or communication between me and Asiwaju Tinubu since I was elected Senate President.
Therefore, I do not see any basis for a newspaper to report that we are both plotting to oppose the President.
I recognize Tinubu as one of the leaders of the APC who contributed so much to the victory of the party in the last election. Some other people also contributed and I believe the collective efforts made it possible for the first time in the history of our party for an opposition party to win the general elections, Let me state clearly that I remain a committed member of the APC and will do all in my power to ensure the party fulfil its promises to bring positive changes into the country.
Since my election as Senate President, my focus and efforts have been devoted to doing the job that I was elected to do by my constituents and my colleagues in the Senate. Twice, my colleagues have confirmed their support for me as the primus inter pares in the Senate. As I said in my speech when we resumed from our recess late September and in Ikenne yesterday, the screening of ministerial nominees will be handled by me and my colleagues with all sense of responsibility and in adherence to the provision of the constitution.
We will be fair to all and be guided by the interest of Nigeria.
The screening will be devoid of sentiment and it is not an opportunity for anybody to settle scores. We are equally eager for us to make a positive difference in our polity and Nigerians will be able to judge us whether we acted in their best interest or not''.
Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki
President of the Senate
Federal Republic of Nigeria.
*Mature response.This man has a way of fighting his battles.
Please they should concentrate on the business at hand this week..that is the ministerial screening....
Nice one. Why's morning taking forever to come? Father take control
ReplyDeleteSorry dear for ur child, he will be okay. Infact Saraki knows how to use his wisdom, see his matured reply.
DeleteYeah, articulated n matured response !
DeleteNa old age dey disturb Tinubu
Exactly what I said in the earlier post. It can't be true that Saraki is conniving with Tinubu. We all know the rift between them since his emergence as SP na. The propagandist didn't do his homework well abeg.
DeleteSimple and brief reply. Not all those long epistle written by Tinubu.
DeleteSaraki,my love for you grows every second. This man is too matured. Tinubu didn't have to say all he said
ReplyDeleteSaraki is not even hard. So upon ALL d insult tinubu rained on his head, this is all he could say. LMAO!!! He even sounds respectful. I see hes being careful & watching his back.
DeleteOmode bu iroko o wan boju weyin, ojoo kan ko ni olu'were n pani. You will meet it in front saraki.
With a government that has Tinubu behind ,it is a corrupt government
ReplyDeletePls you get saraki number? I wan discuss business deals with him. *seriously.
ReplyDeleteLook at how tinubu is shouting upandan, insulting, insinuating and spoiling for a fight. This cute Briton just come swat am. Like an annoying mosquito. Please I WANT HIS NUMBER. Phone number.
Lol.
DeleteSaraki is bae ATM...
Tinubu be acting like a nagging wife
My sentiments exactly! Who doesn't know that Tinubu is not a happy man dese days? That he boarded the first flight to London on Monday before the ministerial list was read out the next day? That he's angry Bihari listens to obj more than him? That his stooge osibanjo who he planted der as his ears has since been sidelined?? That he never wanted Fashola as a minister?
DeleteTinubu you think we Nigerians are fools? You think you can clinch Nigeria from the back door and we'll stand here looking? You will cry tomorrow.
Old age makes one feel that everyone is planning against them.
DeleteOld people always talk a lot
I am starting to talk a lot.
Oh My Gosh
Lol... Your comment cracked me up, but really, you took the words from my mouth.
DeleteVery matured response really, short and straight to the point.
Chai!!! Quality education from a tender age na good thing oh.
I didn't bother reading tinubu's jagons but took my precious time to read in details what my darling saraki has responded..I just love him and I know that buhari knows that tinubu is a pack of trouble..
ReplyDeleteDear sarak,let's remain focus ok.you will triumph!
Lol. I did same too.
DeleteMatured response.
ReplyDeleteAnon 05:49. Go get his number frm tinubu.
ReplyDeleteLovely response from Saraki. Mature. Tinubu should come and learn from him.
ReplyDeleteA very mature and articulate response.
ReplyDeleteLet Tinubu and Saraki bury the hatchet.
They should stop distracting and support the President s quest for a developed and corruption free Country.
Enough of these political drama!
Saraki is living like the proverbial cat with nine life. He's living his life for the moment, calmly, matured and not minding whose ox is gored.
ReplyDeletePay no mind to Jagaban , just remain focus in what yu hv been chosen to do . Though yu are one of "dem" , but 4 now do d needful so dat 9ja shall move on economically n otherwise .
ReplyDeleteWho cares about your fellow senathieves vote of no confidence in you?
ReplyDeleteHian.
Your wings will be clipped soon.
Gbabeski
DeleteGBG take a chill pill. Stop getting unnecessarily angry over saraki's matter, u will just kpeme cos of HBP u hear. Take it easy on the hate. Whether u like it or not saraki remains senate presido. Take a flight out of nigeria (that's if u can afford it), or stay here and quietly deal with it. Thanks!
DeleteMature Saraki
ReplyDeleteThis guy has not changed one bit. He maybe "tush" but he is a major rogue. I sometimes imagine what it would have been like to have him as minister of petroleum? He did probably declare the ministry as his personal asset.
ReplyDeleteThe difference between Jagaban and Saraki is in the number of people ready to take a bullet from them. All in all theybboth deserve each other.
Judas
ReplyDeleteDon't be fooled by Saraki. The man is a wicked man through and through. He knows what to say to save face but his actions are calculated and deadly.A green snake. Saraki will destroy a whole village to kill a rat that entered his house. Don't be fooled. He's a calculating manipulator. But his end cannot be good. Walahi.
ReplyDeleteCool down. Tinubu and Saraki are the same. One is a jaguda and the other is refined.
DeleteDon't I just luv u?
DeleteHmmmm. I hate to love the man
DeleteOk.Politics!Dirty game!
