Senate President Bukola Saraki, has insisted he doesn’t want President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to fail.
In an interview with Daily Trust, Saraki stated that he remained loyal to the President.
When asked what he thought about claims by the ruling All Progressive
Congress (APC) supporters in the North, that he and the Senate had
grounded Buhari’s government, Saraki responded: “There is a lot of
misinformation out there. From Day One I took a position, and some very
powerful people don’t like the position. When you want to know who is
loyal to you, it is during your trying moments. Go back two months ago.
“Who was it who stood up resolutely and said Mr. President will be
back and there is no cause for alarm? I don’t think a man who is not
loyal to you will do that. We know some people who went to London and
saw President Buhari, but they just left. They did not say anything.
“My message to all our party’s supporters is that I am committed, that whatever we promised Nigerians, we will deliver.
“For some of us, this government cannot be allowed to fail. We left
one party with our supporters and embarked on this journey. We must be
able to go back to them and tell them that that journey was worth it. If
God forbid this government fails, what will I go back and tell them? It
is in my personal political interest to see that this government
succeeds.”
