Senator Abdullahi Adamu, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has asked Nigerians to be patient with the party over the zoning of the 10th National Assembly leadership.
Speaking to reporters after a stakeholders meeting at the Defence House in Abuja on Wednesday, Adamu said the party and President-elect Bola Tinubu are still consulting on the matter.
The former Nasarawa State Governor added that the ruling party was still celebrating its victory in the 2023 presidential election.
He said;
Nigerians should be patient with the party. We should wait. What is good for the country is what is good for us as a party. We are only celebrating the victory of our party now.
Earlier, Adamu attended a closed-door meeting with President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Vice-President-elect Senator Kashim Shettima, party leadership, and some stakeholders, including the leadership of the Ninth National Assembly.
Although the outcome of the meeting, which lasted about an hour, was not made public, sources revealed that it was related to the zoning of the leadership of the 10th National Assembly.
Adamu, the Deputy National Chairman (North), Senator Abubakar Kyari, the Deputy National Chairman (South), Chief Emma Eneukwu, and the National Secretary, Senator Iyiola Omisore were all present at the meeting.
Governor Abdulrahman of Kwara State, Senate President Ahmad Lawan, Deputy Senate President Ovie Omo-Agege, Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila, and Kaduna Speaker Yusuf Zailani were also present.
