Senator Godswill Akpabio has called for the resignation of Senate President, Bukola Saraki, PoliticsNGR has learned.

This development is coming shortly after both politicians clashed over sitting positions in the hallowed chambers earlier today. 

Addressing a Press Conference after Plenary on Wednesday, Akpabio advised Saraki to honorably resign as president of the Senate. He added that the Senate President should borrow a leaf from him as a former minority leader, saying he resigned the position when he defected from PDP to APC to allow the PDP elect a new minority leader.

“It’s a tradition all over the world that when you defected to another party even as a Senate President like Saraki did, to resign from the office of the Senate President. APC is still the majority party and they need to form a new leadership. The Senate President should honourably resign just like I did."

He also criticized the PDP for doing nothing in the South-South for 16 years;

"Having moved from PDP to APC, I felt fulfilled. My advice and suggestions in the national interest would not be looked upon with suspicion by the government in power again. I moved to APC in national interest. I don’t believe in bringing government into being and will not that government to succeed.

In the last 16 years, I did not see 1 kilometre of road done by PDP government in Akwa Ibom state, but today, APC government is constructing the road from Akwa Ibom to Calabar.

The road has been a death trap and I must thank this government for that. From the national and local perspectives, people look at me as a leader and I must tell you that in 2019, it would be difficult for any other party to penetrate the South-South."

Politicians are heartless and without manners. How can you be in that party for good 16 years and still tell us what we know? Na wa oo!

PDP brought Nigeria into this mess and God will not forgive them for wanting to fool us and come back through the back door.

And as for Saraki, there's no need telling him to resign anymore. The election is here already. He will be dealt with even in his polling unit. Every one of you would see the same strategy PDP used to remain in power for 16 years in play.

... He also criticized the PDP for doing nothing in the South-South for 16 years ...

Who or what is the PDP in this case?

These folks better start putting names behind these parties if they keep up with their political harlotry of 'jumpology' because they've made a mockery of it in Nigeria. No ideology whatsoever.

All this simplistic rendition mischievously omitting the fact that he
was the PDP in his state for 8 years.

I'm confident that Saraki's days are numbered. The APC Senators are finalizing their strategies, Saraki will be history soon.

Yeye dey smell.....
Akpabio wasn't civil at all.
If anybody watched the Video...
Saraki stated CLEARLY that the reason He told Akpabio to move to another seat is because He was sitting where there wasn't Microphone...how do you expect everybody to hear you?
Akpabio just flare up and acting like lagos Danfo driver.

AND Saraki later asked Akpabio to mention anybody's name,if there has ever been one person in the chamber that has been allowed to talk from a seat without Microphone.... Akpabio was mute and later apologise...
So what the ×××× is He saying again?

I can freely educate Akpabio that his position as minority leader was completely a partisan business. Unlike the position of the president of the senate in the Nigerian constitution, it will take more than 50 Akpabios to remove Saraki. I advice him to try out his party’s popularity by impeaching Saraki, let their majority votes count for once.
