Nigerians Earnestly Condemn Saraki’s Muslim-Muslim Ticket Defence

Nigerians have gone on Twitter to condemn the Senate President, Bukola Saraki’s defence that he is being persecuted for opposing a decision by the APC to present a Muslim-Muslim ticket at the Presidential elections last year.

Some commentators on Twitter went as far as asking the embattled senate president to answer the question whether he falsified his Assets Declaration Form or not.

Saraki Objecting Muslim-muslim ticket as your sin? Bro did u falsify your asset declaration or not.

According to Saraki's logic, his decision to falsely declare his assets in 2007 was cos he wouldn't support a Muslim-Muslim ticket in 2015.

One important question: How does Muslim-Muslim ticket got to do with asset declaration? I am confused.
