Mass defection: Senators Misua, Danbaba speak on Saraki making up list of defected Senators
Isa Hama Misau from Sokoto and Bauchi States respectively, have
described their colleague, Adamu Abdullahi (Nasarawa) as a merchant of
lies for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Senator Abdullahi was quoted to have said that the Senate President,
Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, "merely collated the list of Senators he
feels are not happy with the APC and announced them as defectors."
The two Senators said the Nasarawa born Senator was only spewing forth
lies unbecoming of an elder.
In a statement signed by the two Senators, they stated that Abdullahi
thought all Nigerians were dumb by saying names of Senators were just
announced when in actual fact, the concerned Senators are individual
political leaders in their different constituencies and were present
on the floor when their names were read out from a letter signed by
all of them.
"People like Senator Adamu have become agents of instability and
division in the Senate. This same Senator who was genuflecting before
Saraki to get a Senate committee chairmanship at the beginning of the
Eighth Senate suddenly made a turn-around to become a lap-dog of the
Presidency because he is afraid of his past. It is public knowledge
that the axe of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is
dangling on him and one of his sons.
"How possible is it for somebody to just announce the change of party
on behalf of a Senator without the legislator concerned giving his
consent. We can assure him that more Senators are preparing to leave
the sinking ship of APC and Senator Adamu Abdullahi will have more
fabrications to do.
"It is surprising that a man of Adamu's caliber will say that the only
defecting Senators are from Kwara. We wonder if Senators Danbaba
(Sokoto), Isa Misau and Suleiman Nazif (Bauchi), Monsurat Sunmonu
(Oyo), Barnabas Gemade (Benue), Ubali Shittu (Jigawa), Suleiman
Hunkuyi (Kaduna), Usman Nafada (Gombe), Rabiu Kwakwanso (Kano),
Abdulazeez Nyako (Adamawa), and Dino Melaye (Kogi) are also from Kwara
State.
"Senator Adamu is struggling to save his skin but he should at least
care about the credibility of the information he is giving out. At his
level, he should refrain from circulating fake news", Senators Danbaba
and Misau stated.
