There has been an continuing feud between the number three citizen of Nigeria, Bukola, and his sister, Senator Gbemisola Saraki. This started when Bukola Saraki was seeking re-election for a second term as governor of Kwara state, and Gbemisola showed interest in running for the same position.
While the late Waziri of Ilorin, their father, showered support on Gbemisola’s gubernatorial ambition, he also backed his older son, Bukola, for the position. Gbemisola eventually contested for the seat on the platform of the Allied Congress Party (ACP). When their father died, the children could not feign unity as Gbemisola and her other siblings, Tope and Laolu, distanced themselves from their brother Bukola during the one-year memorial service. They left the venue with immediate effect leaving Bukola and his guests after the memorial service in a chartered flight.

However, thecapital.ng reports that although the rift between Bukola and Gbemisola has been settled, Bukola Saraki’s wife, Toyin, is not ready to bury the hatchet. Toyin is said to be angry with her sister-in-law particularly because of her effrontery and betrayal of her brother.
While friends and family members have tried to help in mending matters, their attempts have been hitting a brick wall. Not even the intervention of their immediate family could convince them to heal the rift.
Gbemisola Ruqayyah Saraki is a Nigerian senator who was elected to represent the People’s Democratic Party in the Central Senatorial District of Kwara state in April 2003.
