Saraki Distances Himself From The Ruling APC

Nigerian users on Twitter have expressed surprise at the removal of the All Progressives Congress’ name from the official profile page of the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.

Saraki’s verified Twitter biography previously read, in part, “Member of the APC.”

But now the Senate President's bio simply read:
“Senate President and Chairman of the 8th National Assembly. Committed to Transparency and Accountability.”

According to Punch observation, one twitter user, Am Human No Labels, said, “Sir, are you no longer a member of the ruling party? I can’t find APC on your bio anymore.”

In the same vein, @olufemisp wrote, “I knew it was when @bukolasaraki deleted the “APC” that proudly adorned his bio. This Saraki war will consume the party.”

Another user, AS Aruwa, said, “I just noticed that @bukolasaraki has deleted ‘Member of the APC’ from his bio. Someone is about to decamp?”

Maryam Abubakar also asked, “Now that the ‘APC’ on Bukola Saraki’s Twitter bio is gone, what should we expect?”

“Why is the APC on your bio gone sir?” @RichieDectector asked, while Ayokunle Odekunle wrote, “@BukolaSaraki removes the ‘APC’ from his bio. It gets more interesting.”

Afolabi Ajiboro also said, “@ogundamisi have you noticed that @bukolasaraki has removed APC from his bio on Twitter? Minutes later the PDP released statement defending him.”

The Senate President did not respond to the controversy on Twitter.

Meanwhile, the Force Headquarters on Saturday said it was waiting for the bench warrant issued by the Code of Conduct Tribunal for the arrest of Saraki, so that they can take action on him.
