BREAKING!! Senate President, Bukola SARAKI Contesting For Presidency And Senate At The Same Time

Despite the presidential ambition of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, there has been a rumor making the rounds over the past few weeks that he’s still keeping an eye on the Senate seat in case he loses the presidential ticket to another aspirant.The uncertainties over the winner of the ticket have now lent more credence to the rumor as a source told TheCable that the Senate President bought the forms as well as the ones to allow him run for president.
The source said;

“The Senate president picked the form as well as that of presidential. I can tell you that he is more interested in retaining his seat at the senate than being the head of this country.

“If he had not obtained the form, a man like David Mark would have had a higher stake than him as to the leadership of the 9th senate. So, he knows what he is doing.

“Let me tell you the PDP ticket in Kwara Central was given to a retired permanent secretary in Kwara state. His name is Abdulrahman Babatunde Sidiq. He will hand over the ticket to the senate president when he is ready.”

The mystery surrounding the ticket is expected to be cleared up on or before Sunday, October 7, which is the deadline given by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conclude party primaries and forward names of candidates.

A famous public speaker, Kayode Ogundamisi reveals in a tweet today that;

“Mr “Anonymous” won the PDP primary in Saraki’s senatorial district –  You will know the name of that winner after PDP primaries for the position of President. When I say someone is MESUJAMBA una go dey protest”.Saraki will know his fate this weekend as the party conducts its presidential primary election in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, between Saturday, October 6, and Sunday, October 7.

He’ll have to defeat former vice president, Atiku Abubakar; Sokoto State governor, Aminu Tambuwal; Gombe State Governor, Ibrahim Dankwambo; and former governors including Sule Lamido, Ahmed Makarfi, Attahiru Bafarawa, Jonah Jang and Rabiu Kwankwaso.

Others are former Senate President, David Mark, former Senator, Baba Datti Ahmed, and former Minister Special Duties Duties and Inter-governmental Affairs, Tanimu Turaki.
