Saraki reaches out
Though the Senate President has kept a stoic face that he is on top of the
dire situation he is entangled in, a source disclosed that behind the scene,
he has in the last couple of days reached out to three of the nation’s
former leaders and other influential Nigerians to intercede on his behalf to
the President.
While one of the ex-leaders indeed spoke to the President on the issue, the
two others allegedly declined and instead asked him to make peace with his
party at “whatever cost.”
The euphemism for “whatever cost”, according to a source is for Saraki to
either step down or accede to his party’s position on the composition of
principal offices in the Senate.
An attempt by Saraki to also co-opt the Emir of Kano, Mohammed Sanusi
(an old student of the prestigious Kings College like Saraki) was also futile
as the monarch failed to extract any commitment from the President.
