Buhari and Oshiomhole have handed Saraki the higher patriotic ground and a long rope to hang both men. Incompetence is worse than corruption and HIV/AIDS combined #WorldPressConference

President Bukola Saraki is acting more presidential then President Buhari. We need a communicative president.
#WorldPressConference— Diukwe Ipeghan (@IpeghanDiukwe) August 8, 2018
Buhari can not understand how a man can stand in front of the people that elected him and be taking questions randomly.
Saraki has spoken his mind, can your MCM come outside? #WorldPressConference— Somto Onuchukwu (@chosensomto) August 8, 2018
A barbaric act happened in NASS & SP Saraki issued a #WorldPressConference in less than 24 hours;
With all the KILLINGS in the country, has your CinC @MBuhari held a press conference?
Indeed, the art of communication is the language of leadership;
THIS Buhari lacks!|@Osekita

Our Senate President has become a celebrity thanks to President Buhari, Nigerians this people don’t care about us, all personal interest. Don’t be fooled #WorldPressConference

The presidents media aid and spin doctors are the dumbest people alive. Do they even know the implications of their principal not been in charge of DSS?
Same Man who was disobeyed by the Police chief? #WorldPressConference— I Harrison (@haryspeech) August 8, 2018
"Impeachment of President @MBuhari will not be entertained. Our focus is to strengthen our democracy and provide enabling environment for free and credible elections" – @bukolasaraki #WorldPressConference

Akpabio is doing his home welcome rally with some Senators;
Yet,#WorldPressConference is trending @ no1.
‘Bukola Sarraki’ is trending at No. 5.
And,
‘Senate President’ is trending at No. 6
What is an Akpabio?

Press: There was allegations that the senate gave directives to DG DSS to stage the legislative coup, what can you say about that?
Saraki: are you saying the DG DSS and the IG of Police answer to senate now? Please don’t insult d intelligence of Nigerians #WorldPressConference

Saraki is beating Buhari in every round of this world title bout.
The #WorldPressConference is another success.— ?️ By Law A Country Is Built (@RadicalYouthMan) August 8, 2018
A smart president Buhari would have issued a live statement from his London residence & condemn the ignoble acts of NASS invasion, as extraordinary times, calls 4 extraordinary measures.
But NO his handlers would rather say, he gave approval 4 DSS boss sack
#WorldPressConference— EmmaCraft (@emmanuel_nzube) August 8, 2018
Just a solemn reminder that Buhari is yet to address Nigeria in this manner since getting to power in 2015. A Senate President acting more presidential that the actual President. #WorldPressConference pic.twitter.com/l0tEflVrKC

The APC Govt. & its supporters have become deaf to the news that EFCC has frozen the accounts of Benue & "Akwa Ibom" states. Hope we don't get to here that the EFCC is working for Saraki. Jokers!#WorldPressConference

I've never seen such a Press Conference in this my Country Nigeria. If I'm wrong please correct me.— Sacred Heart (@c_alisi) August 8, 2018
If you know, 'Saraki's' victories are the scenario of the mouse stealing cheese from the mousetrap while the cat is always punished for it. The day the cat catches the mouse is the day its adventures in the kitchen are over.#WorldPressConference

Buhari and Saraki.. Two greedy politicians
Don't trust these two #WorldPressConference

DEAD ON ARRIVAL
Make I ask, is it not today that #APC is holding Akpabio's Defection Rally in Akwa Ibom?How come it's not trending?
Eeyaa!#DSS gave them a massive blow to the gut with #SaveOurDemocracy
while @bukolasaraki & #PDP finished them off with #WorldPressConference— The Jonathanian (@The_Jonathanian) August 8, 2018
Still trying to understand how anyone would compare Saraki with Buhari.
In education, exposure, political acumen, intelligence and all known good indices, it would be an insult to compare him with Buhari.#WorldPressConference
— Ayo Olalere (@EagledEye234) August 8, 2018
A passionate war of perception control…
Akpabio's #WorldPressConference sent Saraki's to the cleaners…QED.
— Jack Obinyan-Buhari (@JackObinyan) August 8, 2018
I see @bukolasaraki as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The other person is just a Remote control.
Thank you Mr President Bukola Saraki on your wonderful #WorldPressConference
— Sacred Heart (@c_alisi) August 8, 2018
Thank you Bukola Saraki for thinking Nigerians deserve answers and respecting us enough to give us answers. #WorldPressConference
— Desmond Joyce (@natubabe1) August 8, 2018
There’s a particular statement from the #WorldPressConference by SP Saraki that anybody with a functional brain would agree to 100%;
“We did not fight for instruments of state to be used to oppress Nigerians.”
Thank you Senate President @bukolasaraki ????????????.
— Jojo A. (@Heir_2D_Throne) August 8, 2018
I don't see Saraki as a saint, infact he's not not a saint, but his calmness, communication skills and maturity is admirable. #WorldPressConference
— AJALA (@UNCLE_AJALA) August 8, 2018
Bukola Saraki stay winning ???? #WorldPressConference that a president has not done for over 3 years, @bukolasaraki knows this business well

#WorldPressConference
The Constitution is clear on how the Senate President may be removed from office.
It is by "a resolution of NOT LESS THAN TWO THIRDS MAJORITY OF THE MEMBERS OF THAT HOUSE"!
The desperation of Buhari to overturn democracy is reminiscent of his 1983 coup! pic.twitter.com/H1TzmweURg— Odeyele Ayodeji. (@Haywhy_Jah) August 8, 2018
Bukola Saraki may have his flaws.
But his style of opposition gives us that sweet dose of democracy that Buhari has constantly stolen away from us.
#WorldPressConference— Shalom Ibironke (@ShalomIbironke) August 8, 2018
The fact that Bukola Sakari allowed Journalists to ask him questions after #WorldPressConference is highly commendable.

On Akpabio, this happens from time to time, its not an issue for me to talk about. – @BukolaSaraki #WorldPressConference

“I was not GIVEN the seat of the Senate President; I was ELECTED.” – @BukolaSaraki #WorldPressConference
When an intelligent man who understands The Constitution speak, I know even from 10,000 miles away.
Bukola Saraki deserves all the accolades ????????.|@Osekita
— Jojo A. (@Heir_2D_Throne) August 8, 2018
After the #WorldPressConference I finally understand y @bukolasaraki commands such loyalty amongst his peers,who wouldn't want to be led by such a charismatic, eloquent, confident, intelligent,and obviously well educated man,compare dt with oshiomhole and @MBuhari d diff is clear
