Bukola Saraki and Oluremi Tinubu

The political war between Nigeria senate president Dr Bukola Saraki and national leader of All Progressive Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is getting interesting everyday because there’s a mild drama at the Senate’s plenary today when the Wife of a leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Oluremi Tinubu accused the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, of demoting her.

According to report by Daily Trust, says the Senator Tinubu, (APC, Lagos Central) who chairs Senate Committee on Women Affairs challenged Saraki for placing Senator Andy Uba higher than her during the adoption of votes and proceedings.

The Daily Trust correspondent further reports that both Tinubu and Saraki are second timers at the Upper Chamber. They have been at the Red Chamber since 2011.

Saraki had at the commencement of Thursday’s sitting asked Senator Uba (PDP, Anambra South) to move the motion for the adoption of votes and proceedings of Wednesday in line with the tradition.

He also asked Senator Tinubu to second it, but when she stood up, she protested it, saying

” I will second it grudgingly, I won’t thank you for demoting me, God is here.

” I was a better Senator than him even when we were at the seventh Senate but I will second the votes and proceedings,” she said, and general laughter rented the floor.
