Na wah oh! E be like say political matter no go finish for Nigeria! David Mark, wey be former Senate President, don come clear air for one hot gist wey dey fly around.
This gist dey involve Bolaji Abdullahi, wey don chop belleful as former Minister of Youth Development and Sports. Abdullahi dey claim say na him former oga, Bukola Saraki, and Nigeria Governors’ Forum na dem first carry come this Doctrine of Necessity wey help Goodluck Jonathan become Acting President. But no be small wah! David Mark no gree make dem turn am to ‘story for the gods’.
As di matter be, Mark don yan say na di Senate carry di Doctrine of Necessity come first, no be anybody from Kwara side. Him talk am when dem launch Abdullahi memoir for Abuja, sey no be small gbas gbos wey dey happen between dem!
Make I give you small background gist. This Doctrine of Necessity na wetin make di Senate swear in Goodluck Jonathan on February 10, 2010, after late President Yar’Adua dey sick fit to perform him duty since November 2009. Di law dey allow dem swore Jonathan in since Yar’Adua no fit follow di constitution wey require written declaration for Section 145.
So, while Abdullahi dey drop memoir wey talk say Saraki call am to draft statement for di National Assembly, Mark don deny am, say no be true. Mark dey vex small as he dey talk say di doctrine no get kwikpa kwikpa relation with Saraki or anybody wey come from Kwara.
For di memoir, Abdullahi don share some juicy tales about di fight between Jonathan and Saraki during Yar’Adua presidency. He talk say na because di relationship no dey sweet at all, Jonathan dey feel neglected like say him be ‘deputy governor’ wey nobody wan take serious. Na wetin lead to all dis wahala wey dey happen now sef.
David Mark come drop im own side, talk say na collective mission to rescue Nigeria we dey pursue. E even praise Abdullahi say even though dem no dey see eye to eye, e be person wey don try for dis country. Mark dey make am clear say di Doctrine of Necessity na solely di work of dem Senators wey dey there at di time, no any connection with di matter wey involve Kwara State.
As dem dey jost for attention like children wey dey fight for sweets, you fit see say dis political matter no go end anytime soon. E go better make dem sit down talk am instead of dey throw blame like football.
