Just In : Tinubu breaks Silence On Rejection of Akpabio as Senate president, reveals next move
Following disaffection and brewing crisis in the ruling All Progressives Congress APC over the leadership of the 10th National Assembly, the President- elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ruled out the possibility of a repeat of the 8th Assembly saga when the opposition People’s Democratic Party PDP outsmarted the APC, to take control of the Assembly.
The PDP then worked with aggrieved members of the APC to achieve their goal.
Tinubu, represented by the National Vice Chairman, APC Southwest, Isaac Kekemeke, disclosed this during a lecture organized in honour of Afenifere Leader, Chief Reuben Fasoranti, who marked his 97th birthday at the weekend. According to him, the party still has enough time to bring the warring factions together before the inauguration of the National Assembly.
He allayed fears that the opposition would hijack the leadership of the National Assembly.
“Opposition will not take over the National Assembly; both the President-elect and party are working tirelessly to ensure that whatever you perceive as anger will be sorted out, and this is a democracy,” he said.
