[dropcap]W[/dropcap]ith what I saw yesterday at the Senate screening of ministerial nominees, it’s obvious that the Senate is on a mission to help Buhari fail, and woefully too.
Buhari said it that the WORST thing that will happen to his administration will be to appoint compromised people and it’s obvious that the Senate is taking advantage of his mistakes to help him fail… The battle is REAL.
His mistake was submitting the names of the most corrupt Nigerians to the Senate, hoping that they will help him push those ones aside since he couldn’t leave them out considering how much they invested on him.
If the Senate disqualifies Amaechi, Fashola, Fayemi and others with records of massive looting and corruption, they would be helping Buhari to succeed. They would be giving him an opportunity to choose the best people at the end but I don’t see the Senate doing that for him… Especially the PDP Senators.
Buhari has claimed saint so much by rubbishing the Goodluck Jonathan administration and those who worked under him and they won’t help him take that credit home because they know he isn’t one and will never get a team as professional as Jonathan’s had. I see the Senate leaving him with his ant infested firewood.
I see the Senate leaving him to sack his monsters himself.
I see the Senate help cheerfully in building his foundation for his failure since he claims that those men are the saints and technocrats in Nigeria.
I’m sure that Buhari will be praying and may have employed the spiritual service of all the marabouts and sheiks who works for him to pray against these monsters on his neck to be rejected by the Senate…
But that prayer may never get answered.
Expect more of “TAKE A BOW AND LEAVE”
