BREAKING NEWS:Saraki, Dogara treacherous, disloyal, says APC

Firstclass newsline learnt that the All Progressives Congress has
described as totally unacceptable and the "highest level of
indiscipline and treachery" the conduct of Tuesday's inauguration of
the National Assembly that led to the emergence of Senator Bukola
Saraki and Mr. Yakubu Dogara as Senate President and Speaker of the
House of Representatives, respectively.
This was contained in a statement by APC National Publicity Secretary,
Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in Abuja on Tuesday.
APC said, "Senator Bukola and Hon. Dogara are not the candidates of
the APC and a majority of its National Assembly members-elect for the
positions of Senate President and House Speaker. The party duly met
and conducted a straw poll and clear candidates emerged for the posts
of Senate President, Deputy Senate President and Speaker of the House
of Representatives, supported by a majority of all Senators-elect and
members-elect of the House of Representatives.
"All National Assembly members-elect, who emerged on the platform of
the party, are bound by that decision. The party is supreme and its
interest is superior to that of its individual members.
"Consequently, the APC leadership is meeting in a bid to reestablish
discipline in the party and to mete out the necessary sanctions to all
those involved in what is nothing but a monumental act of indiscipline
and betrayal to subject the party to ridicule and create obstacles for
the new administration."
APC decried a situation in which some people, based on nothing but
"inordinate ambition and lack of discipline and loyalty, will enter
into an unholy alliance with the very same people whom the party and
indeed the entire country worked hard to replace and sell out the hard
won victory" of the party.
"There can be no higher level of treachery, disloyalty and insincerity
within any party," the party said, vowing to resolve the matter using
all constitutional and legal means available to it.
Meanwhile, the APC has asked all its loyal Senators-elect to please
report to the Senate to be sworn-in in order to discharge their
constitutional duties.
