Senate President, Saraki Appoints Sacked Nigerian Senator As His Personal Aide

-
The Nigerian Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has reportedly appointed a former senator, Abubakar Danladi as his Special Adviser on Special Duties. 


 The appointment which takes immediate effect, was announced through a statement by the Special Adviser, Media and Publicity to the Senate President, Yusuph Olaniyonu, on Sunday.

 It could be recalled that Danladi,53, was sacked by the Supreme Court as senator representing Taraba North in 2017.

 In a unanimous judgment, the court nullified Mr. Danladi’s election and declared his challenger, Shuaibu Lau, the winner of the 2014 primary election of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Taraba North Senatorial District.

  The court also asked Mr. Lau to return all the salaries and allowances he received as senator. There is no evidence he ever did that.

One of them has been drug-free for seven months. Around 18 million people – half of all those living with HIV around the world – take ART to slow the progression of the infection, according to the UN. But these drugs are expensive and can cause unpleasant side effects. Patients have to remember to take them every day, sometimes over their entire lives. Mitchell Warren, executive dire...
