Senate presidency: My hopes are high - Saraki

Date: 2015-04-21

As the race for the Senate presidency seat gets hot, one of the contenders for the post, Senator Bukola Saraki, yesterday, said he is confident of emerging victorious.

Senators Saraki, (Kwara), George Akume (Benue) and Abdullahi Adamu of Nasarawa are major contenders for the coveted seat.

Saraki, who spoke with newsmen when he received his certificate of return in Ilorin, said he was hopeful of emerging as president of the Senate when the 8th National Assembly is inaugurated.

"I think we'll continue to move around and talk to our people, at the end of the day, we are hopeful", he said.

Saraki commended the people of Kwara State for voting for APC in all elections, saying the victory was a challenge for all elected office holders to perform.

Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed in an open campaign for Saraki said the senator was qualified for the office.

He said: "We are grateful to our political leader in the state for guiding us aright. Indeed, most of what we are witnessing today in the state and other parts of the country happened because our leader and others chose to stand up for change at a critical point in Nigeria."
