Reps speaker: Gbajabiamila, Dogara lead in APC primary
59 minutes ago


The All Progressives Congress has commenced a primary to select a candidate for the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives.
At the end of ‎nominations, Femi Gbajabiamila and Yakubu Dogara emerged as contestants for the House of Representatives top spot.
The event, holding at the International Conference ‎Centre, Abuja, has 182 out of the 209 APC members-elect of the House in attendance.
A yet-to-be-ascertained number of members left the venue after a rowdy session.
Details later…

It is obvious they will produce the speaker, so they had better brought back those who stormed out. And make sure veveryone has an understanding of the mission of the party. Lest they get a shocker from the opposition.

How United State Speaker is Selected


The House of Representatives elects the Speaker of the House on the first day of every new Congress and in the event of the death or resignation of an incumbent Speaker. The Clerk of the House of Representatives requests nominations: there are normally two, one from each major party (each party having previously met to decide on its nominee). The Clerk then calls the roll of the Representatives-elect, each Representative-elect indicating the surname of the candidate he or she is supporting. Representatives-elect are not restricted to voting for one of the nominated candidates and may vote for any person, even for someone who is not a member (or member-elect) of the House at all. They may also abstain by voting "present". [3]

Note that it is stated that the political parties made the decision of who to contest ahead of time. And each party only present one person.

APC is doing the right thing

PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the Consolidation Group, comprising members loyal to Mr. Dogara would also carry out a parallel primary at a different venue.

Let the war begin.
