The confirmation of Rotimi Amaechi as a minister, by Senate President, Bukola Saraki, is threatening to break the internet… well, Nigerian Twitter.
Although the Peoples Democratic Party Senators vehemently opposed the approval of the former governor of Rivers state, Saraki stepped in and made sure he sailed through.
Nigerians, in trademark style, took to Twitter, to harp ceaselessly on the matter.
WE AWAIT CCT DROPING THE CASE AGAINST SARAKI, #corruptionconfirmed

Whenever, you talk about Loyalty and Trust, never bring Saraki to the picture. Never!
— Ogundana Michael (@MickeySunny) October 29, 2015
Let’s hope that Bukola Saraki, the serial betrayer, will not betray Nigeria last last.

There is no place like home,Saraki’s party loyalty has just been tested and he passed with an A grade,PDP was a borrowed home#CHANGE

Yet they support Saraki when the tribunals came calling. Fighting corruption indeed! https://t.co/aSQyLknWKn

After the plenary, Saraki will plea with his brothers from his mother`s side, PDP. They will still bodyguard him to the next CCT hearing.

That walk out might just be staged to help Saraki get forgiveness from APC.@Sylva_bee @sapiosanct @foladarams

The difference: Saraki unlike David Mark allowed the PDP Senators have their say. David mark would have ruled them out of order since

They won’t escort Saraki to his trial again o. ?

The same #PDP senators passed a vote of confidence on Saraki with a court case yet oppose Amaechi with a court case.

Amaechi shouldn’t be confirmed because he has a court case, from the same people who said court case isn’t enough reason for Saraki 2 resign
— Ify (@ify_zoe) October 29, 2015
PDP senators will follow “Corrupt Saraki” to court to show solidarity but will walk out on “corrupt Amaechi… Why now?
— ♛Joshua Sampson♛ (@sire_arabb) October 29, 2015
If u like Jump into the Lagoons ….Bukola Saraki was elected without APC senators Nau. Rotimi Amaechi confirmed without PDP senators Noni
— Smoothwaves Band (@Smoothylona) October 29, 2015
Since The Election Of PMB, Everybody’s Loyalty Has/Is Being Tested And Today Saraki Has Shown His. I Hope APC Will Forge Ahead Stronger
— OneMind Media (@1MaturedMind) October 29, 2015
We never support the emergence of Saraki as SP_ PDP senators…. Chaii wailers now on Saraki
— tHE SeNatOR (@AbuBakr_MaShI) October 29, 2015
What is source for Ameachi should also be sources for saraki.
— Jubril Aminu (@JubrilAminu) October 29, 2015
APC cud have still impeach him if they wanted to…he better move to APC cos he can’t preside if Saraki’s absent https://t.co/SpUSgx76t1
— ‘Diwura Aderibigbe (@DiwuraMedia) October 29, 2015
So wait PDP senators chose saraki only for him to still do the bidding of his party. Talk about losing on both sides.
— Madridista (@Carlo_Larenzo) October 29, 2015
If Ameachi can be nominated as a minister despite his scandals saraki should be let go by cct.
— Jubril Aminu (@JubrilAminu) October 29, 2015
Upon Amaechi’s filed motion and #Pdpsenators exit from Bukola Saraki led Senate chamber. Please who saw #DavidMark leave too? #Ministerial
