That holder should not ever step down for anything. Never again shall we have a senate president whose interest is not about the masses but for the executive.
I dont think he was a placeholder in the first place because Lawan seemingly thought he was the consensus candidate! they wont usually put someone who is not a pushover as a placeholder
This same scenario happened to a federal lawmaker from Abia state where she lost her seat to someone else after more than 15 years in the national assembly....as for lawan he deserves more than this because it serves him a big lesson and he also should sit and home to watch his former colleagues on television come 2023
Point of correction it didn't happen in Abia the person you are talking about is nnenna from bende PDP conducted primary she lost to a new man it's not the same situation n at the end the PDP person still lost during election
Hmmmm,am surprised on how individuals see seat of government as their personal property. This senate president should look himself in the face and ask himself this stark truth,what has he done to the people of his constituency? This is a man I know thru some of his people, intact among those who have help him to actualised his dream in 1999,but sadly,they can't even see him. We once went to see him see,we spend over 6-hours at his gate with no one to listen to us. Among his kinsmen,,no one can point 10-people that he has empowered in all this 27-years. Whatever goes round always comes round to hurt us. Let him leak his wound as Asiwaju rightly put....he's a man that never help neither reach out to outsiders like some of us who knew him for long.
@@TheDYNAMITE001 ,sorry for concluding what u don't know!How do u come to conclusion of whom I will vote for? I'm well informed in life to support,campaign or vote for any of these corrupt ,self enriched greedy persons. I'm not like u who see these politicians worth supporting or voting,they are all corrupt brats that the corrupt system has succeeded is breeding not even your peter Obi!
even if he relinquishes his mandate, other contestants will go to court to claim that Lawan was not part of the race and I assure you that will surely work. for Lawan he should just forget.
Only in Nigeria can someone hold a position for an elected official to beat the electoral law that to contest a new position, you must resign the old one with a letter. All this idiocy of quarantining a political post must end. Lawan and co must go home and rest. Enough of their greed and monopoly.
Lawal has spent 23years in the senate. He’s seen it all. What else does he want there. He needs to give others in his senatorial area a chance to represent them.
Ahmed Lawan should work with Sheik Gumi and collaborated together to help release those kidnapped by the terrorists. I suggest this is a just cause for Lawan instead of trying to go back to the senate. He has spent a lot of years in the senate already and I believe he should be humble and move on.
This Lawan joined Buhari in spoiling our country, any thing Buhari wanted he rubber stamps them as he said, without argument or whether good or bad. All the money borrowed from China passed without any argument. He should go home and rest.
Lawan is an inefficient Senate President throughout his current term. He always followed Buhari executive instructions as if there is no parliamentary arm of government. He allowed the executive arm to remote controlled him, first as imaginary consensus candidate, and later pushed him to contest against Tinubu. This type of laissez faire leader does not fit to lead a senate chamber packed with many ex governors and a host of other experienced parliamentarians.
Senator Lawan, please before you exit the National Assembly, make sure you look into the Diaspora voting bill again so that Nigerians abroad can participate in presidential election as voters and citizens of Nigeria. Please consider this request urgently so that your 23 years in the National Assembly will be historic and unforgettable by millions of Nigerians in the Diaspora. Thank you!
Just imagine how a person invited to International Television Station to give her insight into a salient political issue, giggling over issue. Such a woman shouldn’t be invited.
But he was beating his chest to be Nigeria's president, thank God Asiwaju taught him a lesson of his life.. People who are close to him can tell u this is a man that never help those poor kinsmen of his or outsiders like us. How can he rule a country like Nigeria? History will not be kind to him by jointly plunging Nigeria into a debt that will destroyed our country for decades. He approved all kind of debts brought by Mr President without thinking of its consequences.
For being in the senate for twenty something years what can he boldly say that he brought to this country or to his constuency let them go home to enjoy what he has been looting since twenty something years
Is Lawan running Methuselah foundation in the Senate? Let him go and rest. There was a process and that process favoured someone else. What is wrong with that?
Tinubu told Lawan in his speech that he will lick his wound now that he has contested against Bola. You can't eat your cake and have it. This is not a family title. God forbid that Machina step down. He should borrow Pst Tunde Bakare's mantra and step up.
@@toplembo Mind you no one is a saint anywhere in the world, remove the word saint because we are not perfect, but people are better than people, that is why you see people who have a genuine heart of giving while some don't. Not giving for any reason or because you want to achieve any aim. Yes he was part of it and if you were in Nigeria and you always follow up with all that is going on, you should know Peter Obi is the answer to this bad democracy and buying of delegates we are seeing here and there. When you pay delegates to emerge as a party presidential candidate, then the process is corrupt.
Nigeria politics begin to sound interesting now than before I like the political outmost spare right now it seems we are beginning to play politics in a more mature way that we help the development and growth of the country in every aspect.
He is a shameless disgrace. What has he done? He shamefully refused to resign, while contesting for d presidential ticket.. no character. No substance. And he still wants to return to d senate. Personal hunger for power. Since they are used to govt Paying the expenses for them and their families. Quite unfortunate..
Haba, Lawan has spent for 23years in NASS. Lawan should go and do other things. Nigerians et all greatly thank him for his 23years of service. NASS need fresh creative resourceful persons
Hw can someone 23yrs asking first timer to step down it his inheritance he should not do that people who advice to go and spoiled someone ambition , that is the reward of treator
Mr Otitoju, can you please explain to me how Hon Kuforiji who is from Epe served two terms as representative from Epe only to represent Ikeja during his third time in the Parliament of Lagos state. The truth is that all politicians are guilty of this Summersault in the past. Mind you, Tinubu wanted Kuforiji so badly in the house then that he made the man who won from Ikeja to step down and gave the ticket to kuforiji who never took part in the Ikeja primaries prior to the elections of 2011.
Please, know where to talk of your God, these are earthly things, do not force people to dislike your God, do you really think that someone comes under this topic to read about God and be convinced, you are a fool and not helping to gain souls to God
Lawan should go home was he not supposed to resign before contesting for presidential candidate? Naija is toxic when it comes to politics! The only post one should resign is the one you are on already if not sign out and leave the space for others
A big miscalculation really by Lawan. Kwankwaso almost did that but he was lucky it was his in-law there, and the guy was made to quietly stepped down for him
You can not eat your cake and have it back! It is evil to edge the guy out! After all, there was no evidence to show that he was holding brief for you. Nigerian politics is such a mess!
He needs to step down! Greed will not let him do so. Lawal doesn’t have a second address so what do you think? This is Nigeria electoral bill that they are playing with and it’s a shame
Something greater than the senate must have made Lawan resign from the senate. Buhari had a secret candidate and APC Chairman crowned Lawan Ahmed as the APC chosen candidate. All these happened but Nigeria has kept quiet about it. So Lawan was sure he will have the APC nomination by Buhari.
The holder of the people’s mandate should not even try to step down for anyone because the senatorial seat is not hereditary. Lawan having spent more than two decades in the senate, he’s over due to leave the place for another person to come to over.
He should not sell anything even for the treasury. Haba is the senate his birthright? Why is he so desperate to go back when he has been there for 23 years and nothing much to show for it except for his fat bank account? It is greed that will finally destroy this country.
Very good for lawan, that serves him right,this is how useless lawan is,this is to show u the kind of laws they are making for we Nigerians. He should stay at home and have a feel of his own medicine
Lawan has doop Nigeria money to go and get a new foreign wife and no one asked him. This people keep changing the laws just to favor them. How can the man step down? Good for him ( lawan)
Since he has been in the Senate, even becoming the Senate President of what real, I mean real impact has he to the Nigerian Nation? Me ooo, is he the only one from his senetorial district that is competent? I no go allow am ooo,, I no go greet Power must change hands, infact power Don Change hand to the right person, make he go settle himself, all these old politicians wet no want others to progress, Slave drivers, Na so Idan Allahu zae tsine Maa Ibilis sai Allah ya saa Shetan a Confusion, Angama!

May be because he is the only one ordained to live a better life than others.
The man is greedy and its God that sent him packing quietly.

He has just stepped down
I dont think he was a placeholder in the first place because Lawan seemingly thought he was the consensus candidate! they wont usually put someone who is not a pushover as a placeholder
When Shettima said Lawan is not popular , this is a confirmation that the man knew what he was talking about.
Imagine been the apc aspirant it it will be total failure even as it is Obi will beat him in an election

That is Good for Ahmed Lawan. For 23years in senate looting and stealing money for himself it is law of Cama working against Lawan.
An easy exit for Mr. Rubber stamp. 23 years in the National Assembly. The crux of our problems.
He must not step down!!!
He shouldn’t step down
And they shouldn’t try and amend that part of the act!!!
It will not happen!!!!
I like the energy in your comment. HE WILL NOT STEP DOWN!!

That senate house is their retirement home.
These politicians don't have any other job to do that's why they don't want to go..

He should become terrorist negotiator..... 😂😂😂😂😂 man! You wicked! 😂😂😂😂
100% he should NEVER step down. Lawal should have a taste of his medicine. He refused to step down for APC Southern Presidency.....
God is at work here, we have suffered under Ahmed lawal by supporting excessive borrowing of the executive.
Good for him all this are the evil men that are distroryin our country go for him,
Amend what ? WHy?
Lawan Needs to take his L and Move on.
This Lawan joined Buhari in spoiling our country, any thing Buhari wanted he rubber stamps them as he said, without argument or whether good or bad. All the money borrowed from China passed without any argument. He should go home and rest.
He should never steps down for Lawal please.

Lawan is good to drop because he helped Buhari to destroy Nigeria, by rubber stamping everything Buhari desired.

On what ground will he step down. Lawan cannot eat his cake and have it.
