The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu, has issued a warning to Senator Godswill Akpabio and other lawmakers-elect who are expected to hold key positions in the 10th National Assembly.
During a meeting at the party’s national secretariat, Adamu expressed his satisfaction with the ongoing consultations and urged the lawmakers-elect to avoid a repeat of the incident that occurred with Bukola Saraki in 2015.
He emphasized the importance of respecting the opinions and rights of party members, while also highlighting the need for a smooth and fair election process.
The final decision on the leadership positions in the National Assembly will be made on the floor of the Senate during the proclamation by the President and the Clerk.
The APC Chairman urged the lawmakers-elect to uphold the rules of the game and ensure a peaceful election process.
In response, Akpabio expressed his gratitude for the endorsement he received after consulting with stakeholders across Nigeria and highlighted the historical context of the South-South region’s long absence from holding the position of Senate President.
