The All Progressives Congress (APC) of Lagos state has called on the national leadership to punish the Senate president, Bukola Saraki, and the speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, Today informs.
In a statement the party said that it was a sad development that Saraki could jump into bed with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in his desperation for power.
The Lagos APC publicity secretary Joe Igbokwe described the re-election of Senator Ike Ekweremadu as the Deputy Senate President as an embarrassment to the APC.
The statement says: “The purported election of Senator Saraki and Dogara as the Senate President and Speaker respectively, is a clear transgression of both the tenets of democracy and party politics. At this early stage, the APC must come down strongly to meet out sanctions and punishments against treacherous members that perpetrated this ugly charade at this early stage of the party’s life and history. As a party and given the circumstances of our present politics, the APC stands no risk of being eroded by this treachery. Rather, we see the clear road to enforce discipline in the treacherous conduct of some members of the National Assembly.”
