A member of the Senate Unity Forum, comprising the All Progressives Congress ( APC) Senators who ed the bid of Senator Ahmad Lawan ( Yobe North) for the presidency of the 8th Senate, later won by Bukola Saraki ( Kwara Central) , has challenged Saraki to name those who wanted to abduct him before his emergence as President of the 8th Senate.

The Senator, Kabiru Marafa ( Zamfara Central), in a text message to journalists yesterday, tasked them to ask Saraki to name those who wanted to abduct him before getting full reaction to his allegation.

Saraki had at an interview with journalists last weekend in Abuja, alleged that before the inauguration of the 8th Senate on Tuesday, June 9, 2015, there were plans by some big guns within the party, stridently opposed to his aspiration as President of the 8th Senate, to abduct him as a way of preventing him from attending the inauguration and personally accepting his nomination for the position.

According to Saraki in the interview widely reported in the media, he escaped the abduction allegedly planned against him that day by refusing to report at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel where all federal lawmakers-elect were billed to gather at 8:00am for onward movement to the National Assembly.

Counting his days until he becomes the EX Senate President.

He should but maybe he is scared

Saraki's would be abductors are fair play, team spirit, honour & loyalty but as a sharp guy with an unbridled sense of I, ME, MYSELF & need for power at any cost he aint never going to allow any of those MOF0s catch him napping & stop him from his goals..

Saraki must think Nigerians are fools, he got wind of an abduction but not the meeting alledgely called for by the president.

Issokay, he should go ahead & enjoy his last bit of political relevance; as barcanista posited (hate to agree with him ) even PDP don't want him, all they needed was to cause a crack in APC's armour...

Marafa just dey challenge Saraki like say nah only hin dey house, make dem move on jawe. No time to waste time.

Saraki oooooo

Why would Saraki name anybody ..... How would he know who , when and where...

He was warned on tip off and was smarter than his abductors now He is the Senate President .

How could this people be asking the Senate President some rhetoric questions ..... lol.

See, the Northern Oligarch determine the political RELEVANCE of a politician at the centre government ..... oh yes...... the same people we southerners call Ab.okis .....

It is not Saraki's fight with Tinubu that will render he, Saraki irrelevant in the political scheme of Nigeria.

Make una keep beating empty chest .... ..... no be for media dem dey fight am .....

I'm sure Saraki has never for once had peace of mind ever since he became Senate President.
Thats the price you pay for doing things the wrong way,being impatient and treacherous.

This Senator Marafa keep giving Saraki headache hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Chill, we all know who the real empty chest beater are..

Tinubu is not the issue that his detractors are making the NASS ime to be, Saraki acted purely on selfish reasons purely based on his ambition & he found a willing accomplice in a PDP that needed a crisis in APC.. PMB said he'll work with anybody but he stated that it has to be someone who will respect party supremacy & not subvert the process

As for Saraki, if he wasn't feeling the heat, why is doing so much PR, with the abduction story, claiming he is sad about ekweremadu being his deputy & the his biggest faux pas till date "claiming he dropped his presidential ambition for PMB like he could best him in any way whatsoever!!!

You have your stand,I've mine, tommorrow is pregnant, in no distant future it will bring forth what it has & the whole world will see.

Which heat is Saraki feeling .... which heat .... if he was feeling any heat, he would have abided by the directive of APC National Chairman to ensure Lawan/Akume become the Senate majority leader and Deputy Majority leader respectively.

You folks once said Bukola Saraki travelled to to beg Tinubu
You folks once said Bukola Saraki implored OBJ to beg Tinubu
You folks keep saying Bukola Saraki is feeling the heat

You don't know Bukola Saraki , He will never beg Tinubu and He will never stop using his power and influence to frustrate Tinubu ..... I dey laugh una and da na y I tagged you people media warrior and empty chest beaters.

Yawa.

If you're dining with the devil, be prepared to come with a long spoon.

Marafa, for questioning our distinguished senate president and Chairman of the 8th NASS, no senate committee chairmanship position for you. You will be a floor member in the least(committee with the least chances of seeing money) committee in the senate. Those in say AY! AY!!!!!!!! The AYs have it. *hits gavel*
