Saraki and Dogara Will Be Dealt With: APC Leaders.



Sen. Bukola Saraki
Hon. Yakubu Dogara

Rotimi Fashakin, an APC chieftain, while talking during a television programme in Lagos on Monday morning has authoritatively stated that the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and his counterpart at the House of Reps Yakubu Dogara would come under the party’s hammer following their role in the recent leadership inauguration in the red and green chambers.

Fashakin said the crisis in the party would be resolved but not before the erring members have been adequately sanctioned, and that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that it will take its final option as regards the crisis rocking the National Assembly.

He stated that the wish of the party is to allow Ahmed Lawan, the winner of the in-house election conducted by the party prior to the inauguration day of the senate, to be presented as the presidency candidate of the National Assembly, but Saraki boycotted a meeting of APC chieftains in Abuja, to attend the inauguration of the 8th Assembly where he emerged as the leader of the senate unopposed, much against the wishes of the party.

“He said: “there are problems, crisis here and there, but the party is not falling apart. It is the backdrop of how party came together in the first place”.

“I was a member of the merger committee that came about the party. We have strife in the National Assembly and individuals who have their personal agenda”.

“I’ll tell you right away that the options are no longer many with the latest issues. One of the options is for the party to wield the big stick on the senate president and the speaker for gong against the party’s wishes”. he concluded
