Hopes that Senate President David Mark would read the defection letter addressed to him by 11 senators seeking to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) on January 29, dimmed yesterday as he said his hands were tied by the Senate Standing Rules.
Order 53 (5) of the Senate Standing Rules states that "reference shall not be made to any matter on which a judicial decision is pending in such a way as might in the opinion of the president of the senate prejudice the interest of parties thereto."
The defecting senators are
Bukola Saraki (Kwara Central)
Adamu Abdullahi Adamu (Nasarawa West)
Umaru Dahiru (Sokoto South)
Danjuma Goje (Gombe Central)
Shaba Lafiagi (Kwara North)
Aisha Alhassan (Taraba North)
Magnus Abe (Rivers South-east)
Ali Ndume (Borno South)
Bindowo Jubrilla (Adamawa North)
Wilson Ake (Rivers West)
Ibrahim Gobir (Sokoto East).culled

DeleteThe Political Crinkum crankum saga affecting the PDP this year is quite shocking,i wonder what David mark is thinking right now?because all the board of directors of PDP seem to have lost their positions in PDP,Atiku also said he was never invited to the partys meetings that's why he moved to APC, i won't be surprise if Senator Mark ports to APC,i won't be.
