Sieges on Saraki,Ekweremadu are act of desperation – Ben Bruce

The Senator representing Bayelsa East, Ben Bruce has described the Police and DSS sieges on Senate President Bukola Saraki and his Deputy, Ike Ekweremadu as an act of desperation by the present government.

Policemen on Tuesday morning blocked the convoy of the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki at Lake Chad Junction, Maitama, Abuja.

The lawmaker in a tweet on Tuesday said,"The sieges and any use of force on @BukolaSaraki, the legitimate Senate President or Ike Ekweradu, his Deputy are an act of desperation. #IStandWithSaraki and I urge you to do the same. If we allow what is currently being done to them to stand, we are in full blown dictatorship!

"Every @OfficialPDPNig Senator should immediately go to the @NGRSenate. We must stop any attempt by loyalists of dictatorship to use the ensuing confusion to play a fast one and change the leadership of the Senate. Nigerians, be on guard. Help preserve independence of the Senate!
