Gbajabiamila and Wase will run all-inclusive National Assembly - Abdulmumin Jibrin

Indications on Saturday, May 4, emerged that the All Progressives Congress will adopt Idris Wase (Plateau) as the deputy speaker of the 9th House of Representatives.

Abdulmumin Jibrin (Kano), who is the Director General (DG) of the Femi Gbajabiamila campaign council made this known on his twitter page.

Jibrin said any member of the APC caucus that fails to accept the party’s choice of Wase ultimately risk being sanctioned.

The tweet read: “MURUS!!! Mr speaker and Mr deputy speaker 9th Assembly. If you are an APC member and against the two, you are on collision course with the party. 2015 is NOT 2019 in so many ways. We are assuring our 360 colleagues, Femi and Wase will run an all-inclusive House. Hon A Jibrin DG”

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
