Recall that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the APC had on Monday zoned the positions of the Senate President of the 10th National Assembly to the South-south, Deputy Senate President North-West, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, North-West and Deputy Speaker to South-East.

The ruling party also agreed on a consensus that the former Governor of AkwaI bom State, Senator Godswill Akpabio has been anointed as the next Senate President and Jubril Barau as Deputy Senate President, while Hon. Tajudeen Abass from Kaduna State and Hon. Benjamin Kalu from Abia State were anointed as the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House respectively.

Abbas met with Tinubu in Lagos alongside other House of Representatives members-elect.

At the meeting, the president-elect promised to work harmoniously with the duo if elected, to ensure he achieves the objective of his ‘Renewed Hope’ Agenda.
