Saraki Got This One Right!


I am not a fan of Bukola Saraki, in fact I detest his politics. But there are some things I have watched the man do that simply amaze me. On his twitter page the following entry was made today:
Tonight, I spoke to Chinenye, Linda Igwetu’s sister. Such a tragedy.
They deserve justice and I commit to doing my best to achieve this. May her soul Rest In Peace.
You could say this is photo ops for publicity, I certainly was tempted to say so, but if you ask me, this is what our President Muhammadu Buhari should be doing. You might not like the components of the NASS and how they keep "ploughing the field to their own advantage" but when they get it right we simply have to say so!
The NASS is light years ahead of the Presidency. They are setting the agenda, they have pulled the rug out from beneath the feet of the president more times than I can count and he is playing catch up. All this, in a presidential system of government? We 
might as well rename a our system a legislative one.
