The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara, has dismissed reports that he is fighting the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki.
The Speaker’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Turaki Hassan, made this known in a Friday statement made available to the media.
He said that the rumours of the rift was concocted and is being broadcast by “paid minions who who have sold their conscience”.
According to the statement, the intention of the perpetrators remains to hoodwink the public into believing a lie.
He added that Dogara and Saraki have enjoyed a cordial and harmonious relationship in the last three years and it would not change anytime soon.
He said, “Please beware of evil people, merchants of lies, falsehood and mendacity whose primary occupation is to concoct, contrive, fabricate and brew mischief and fake news which they spread and broadcast like wild fire on social media.

“These paid minions who have sold their conscience and souls to the devil for a morsel have been broadcasting lies on social media especially WhatsApp with the sole aim of deceiving and hoodwinking the public into believing that there is a rift between the two leaders of the National Assembly – Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki and His Excellency Rt Hon. Yakubu Dogara.
“To the contrary, Dr. Saraki and Barrister Dogara have enjoyed harmonious working relationship in the last three years. The Rt. Hon. Speaker will never ever say those things about the President of the Senate. But for the unsuspecting members of the public and supporters of the two leaders, we would have ignored this latest round of fallacious and fictitious perfidy which is nothing but a piece of devilish fiction as it will fizzle out and end in the pit of hell where it came from.”
