Nigeria: Senate President and Speaker labelled Party destroyers

APC Chieftain Bisi Akande has accused the two men Senate President Bukola Saraki and the Speaker of the House of Reps Yakubu Dogara of leading a rebellion in their party APC. Akande said in an interview with Saturday Tribune that respecting the position of the party’s leadership remains the only path for the two men.

"The cardinal thing I emphasised in that statement was discipline, obedience to your party. It is our party that made Saraki. He cannot disobey our party. Saraki and Dogara are from the old PDP. They defected to our party and they are the leaders of this rebellion. It is indiscipline that killed their old party. Can they deny that? Are they not from the old PDP? We had formed and registered our party many months before they came. It doesn’t mean that they should do what they did in PDP to us. We will reject it. The way forward is for them to be disciplined,” he said
