The All Progressives Congress (APC) national working committee is having a vital meeting with governors chosen on the party’s platform.
The meeting’s agenda was kept private, but a source in the NWC claimed it was convened to talk about the leadership zoning plans for the 10th National Assembly.
The office of the Senate President was recently designated to the South-South, and Senator Godswill Akpabio was nominated for the job. The Deputy Senate President’s office was zoned to the North West, and Senator Jibrin Barau was earmarked for the role.
In the House of Representatives, North West geopolitical zone is to produce the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker goes to South East zone.
Tajudeen Abbas from Kaduna and Benjamin Kalu, Abia State are slated as consensus candidates for the Speaker and Deputy Speaker.
The Governors started arriving at the Muhammadu Buhari House, the party headquarters around 5:20 pm and went straight to the NWC Hall for the meeting with the party leadership.
