OPINION: Why Nigerians should blame Buhari for current insanity in the Senate

Editor’s note: Nigerian Senate is currently embroiled in crisis ranging from certificate scandal, fraud to suspension of whistleblower of illicit acts in the National Assembly. The crisis, according to many political watchers has caused international embarrassment to the country.

In this article, a Facebook user, Oyediran Asimiyu Amobi blames the crisis on President Muhammadu Buhari’s refusal to heed the call by the national leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu before the 8th National Assembly was constituted.

I am constrained to make this very short comment on the present brouhaha ravaging the country from the filthy stinking 8th Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

OPINION: Why Nigerians should blame Buhari for current insanity in the Senate

President Muhammadu Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari did not make hay while the sun was shinning. He jettisoned all sense of reasoning when it was most proper and most needed in the choice of who presides over the 8th Senate.

He chose his true friends as enemy at the most critical period. And here we are battling the fruit of his actions and inactions!

When the political genius, the generalissimo of political ideas, the Grand Commander of political strategy, the Chief philosopher of politics, the Jagaban Borgu, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu foresaw the present quagmire, he pitched his tent with President Buhari for the 8th Senate to be headed by the one who will allow the policy of Government to flow seamlessly.

The President hibernated and somersaulted into a life time error claiming he can work with anybody. Here we are suffering the consequences of portraying Asiwaju, his real friend, in bad light! He abandoned Asiwaju who is truly working to ensure the President succeeds for the good of the Country.

When economy was in critical mode, emergency power bill to tackle the problem was sent to the Senate by the President, it was never opened for discussion by the Senate whose majority belongs to the President’s party instead the Senate was pursuing CCB law amendment, buying #38,000,000 SUV for its members, strategizing to succeed Buhari in 2019 just to mention but few. The President is being humiliated everyday by members of his party in the Senate.

First, it was Ambassadorial nominee and budget padding, followed by Magu, then Hameed Alli and now the REC confirmation.

The bill to create a special court for trying corruption cases is still gathering dust in the Senate also are the bills to strengthen the anti-corruption agencies and many others! Jibrin was suspended from House of Representatives for speaking against the corrupt practises in-there and the presidency still believes it is a matter for the legislative only.

Bola Tinubu

His method is making the type of Dino Melaye to mess up our country before the world. A Prof. for whatever reason jettisoned his integrity and turned Nigeria to a laughing stock.

Now, the cabals around the President should be ashamed of themselves while Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Okikiola Ariwoose, Ogbonyimininupo Tinubu is being vindicated!

It is high time the President started doing something to put an end to these insults from the 8th Senate otherwise the worst should be expected. I won’t be surprised if somebody moves for impeachment of the President if Magu is not removed.
