22 Sins Of Saraki Against Buhari & The APC Led Government.

“3. Delay in the confirmation of the boards for AMCON, CBN, NERC, NSADA, ICPC, among others.

4. Giving the Deputy Senate President to the opposition party.”

President Buhari’s social media aide, Lauretta Onochie has listed the 22 sins which Senate President Bukola Saraki committed against the government.
She made this known in a post which she published on Facebook.

Onochie put up the list in reaction to a statement issued by the Senate President when he dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Saraki announced his departure from the ruling party on Tuesday, July 31, 2018.

Buhari’s anti-corruption war is personal
According to the Senate President, Buhari’s anti-corruption war is being used as a weapon to silence any form of dissent.

He said “…However, what we have seen is a situation whereby every dissent from the legislature was framed as an affront on the executive or as part of an agenda to undermine the government itself.

The populist notion of anti-corruption became a ready weapon for silencing any form of dissent and for framing even principled objection as ‘corruption fighting back’.”

Saraki, while listing his reasons for leaving the APC, also said that “All governance principles which were required for a healthy functioning of the party and the government were deliberately violated or undermined. And all entreaties for justice, equity and fairness as the basic precondition for peace and unity, not only within the party, but also the country at large, were simply ignored, or employed as an additional pretext for further exclusion.”

He also revealed that some powerful people in Buhari’s government blocked all his efforts to make peace.

Buhari’s aide fires back
In her response, Onochie said that the APC is the most tolerant party in the world.
