Senator representing Kaduna Central at the Senate, Shehu Sani, has opined that the current travails of Senate President Bukola Saraki is because of his position and future plans for 2019.
Sani, who spoke during an interview with Leadership, said “I don’t know of any problem between the senate president and Mr. President. Buhari is the president to Nigeria and Nigerian elected him into office. He is not wanting to be a president, he is already one. He can take his bills and budget to the National Assembly confidently because his party is the majority. Saraki’s problem is being engineered, fanned, propelled, sponsored and sustain by forces that see him as a threat to them in 2019 or 2023.
“The Saraki threat is not for this government, it is for what is coming ahead. So Saraki is a guinea pig of a conflict of ambition whereby if he wasn’t a senate president, he couldn’t have been in this spot light. And if he is not a threat in the future, he wouldn’t be passing through what he is passing through now. If saraki is in contest with Buhari, I will support Buhari, but Buhari has never said Saraki is in contest with him.
