If I had skeleton in my cupboard, FG would have ‘silenced’ me – Saraki

Senate President Bukola Saraki says the President Muhammadu
Buhari administration would have silenced him if he had skeleton in
his cupboard.

Saraki said this when he paid a visit to Muftau Gbadamosi, olofa
of Offa, at his palace on Sunday.

The Senate president said but for God and the support of the
people “I will not be standing today.”

“Since we joined the PDP the party has honored Kwara state, they
gave us DG of Campaign, National Leader of the party and have
agreed that if the party wins, senate president is our slot in
Kwara,” he said.

“But what has the other party to offer? If I have skeleton in my
cupboard, this government would have silenced me and forced me to
drop the campaign.

“But for God and the support of the people, I would not be
standing today. They didn’t want to honor our agreement. We all
laboured and what they couldn’t get in three times they got it and
we demanded that they give to Kwara what we deserve.

“We need to teach our seasonal politicians a lesson on the poll
date. We want community development, let everybody come and
contribute their quota to our communities; when Saraki do his own,
let them too do their own. I heard that some politicians have been
buying JAMB forms in 2019. The question to ask is where were they
in 2016, where were they in 2017?

“APC leaders in Kwara can’t access President Buhari for
anything. They will first have to go and submit their request to
Lagos and it is only when Lagos is satisfied with the request that
it will be forwarded to Buhari who may or not do it.”

Saraki said anyone who loves Kwara would not follow Buhari.
